Garage invoicing software that bills what actually happened

The quote the customer approved, the hours the technician actually clocked, the parts that actually went on the car — MechIQ turns them into the invoice, with VAT right on every line. No retyping from a worksheet, no "what did we agree again?", and the customer can pay by link or card at the desk.

From approved quote to paid invoice, without the retyping

Quote becomes the invoice

What the customer approved is what gets billed. Extra work they approved mid-job is added on top, clearly separated — never silently folded in.

Real hours, real parts

Labour comes from the technician's clocked time and agreed rates; parts come off the job as fitted and confirmed. The invoice reflects the workshop, not a guess.

VAT per line

Labour and parts each carry the correct VAT rate, with the rate-band breakdown your accountant and your VAT return need.

Get paid your way

Payment link by SMS or email (your AIB, Revolut or Stripe link), card terminal, cash, or on-account for trade customers — recorded against the invoice either way.

Credit notes done properly

Full or partial credits against an invoice, with the refund or account credit recorded — and exported to your accounts package as a proper negative document.

Straight into your accounts

Every invoice, credit note and payment pushes to Sage, Xero or QuickBooks automatically. More on the accounting side →

Garage invoicing software showing an itemised quote with parts and labour lines that becomes the customer invoice

The part most invoicing software skips: the quote

An invoice is only as good as the quote it started from. MechIQ's AI drafts a full itemised quote — parts at your prices, labour at your rates — for the front desk to review and send in minutes. The customer approves by link, the approval is recorded, and the invoice at the end matches it. That chain, quote → approval → work → invoice, is why billing disputes get rare.

Garage invoicing FAQ

Can the customer pay online?+

What about trade and fleet customers on account?+

Account customers can be invoiced per job or on a periodic statement, with agreed discounts applied automatically and the outstanding balance tracked.

Does it handle warranty or split billing?+

Yes — a job can bill to a warranty or insurance provider, or split between payers, with each invoice carrying its own lines.
