Question 1

How does Slash help contractors prevent cost overruns?

Accepted Answer

Every Slash card has its own spend rules — vendor restrictions, MCC category locks, and dollar-amount caps. A card meant for a roofing job at one property can be capped at $5K, locked to lumberyards and hardware vendors, and auto-frozen the second it hits the limit. Off-policy purchases get blocked at the swipe. Pair that with virtual accounts per job and card groups per crew, and your finance team sees exactly where money goes — before it goes — instead of chasing receipts at month-end.

Question 2

How does Slash handle job costing for contractors?

Accepted Answer

Spin up a virtual account for every project or property. Receive draws into one, pay subs and material vendors out of another. Real-time profit per job, without opening five different bank accounts. Every card swipe, ACH, and wire auto-tags to the right job — so when you close the books each month, every dollar is already attributed.

Question 3

Does Slash sync with QuickBooks, Xero, or Sage?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Direct sync to QuickBooks Online and Xero, plus a bank feed for Sage. Every transaction, receipt, and memo flows into your accounting platform mapped to the right job and category. Set smart mapping rules once and Slash auto-categorizes every future swipe. Your bookkeeper stops re-keying and month-end closes in hours instead of weeks.

Question 4

Will my field crews actually use this?

Accepted Answer

Crews don't have to learn anything. When a foreman swipes a Slash card at the supply house, Slash texts them asking for a photo of the receipt. They reply with a picture and it's automatically attached to the transaction. No app, no portal, no training. Cards can be physical (mailed to the crew or yard) or virtual. Adoption is a text message, not a rollout plan.

Question 5

Can I issue cards for crews, trucks, foremen, and field staff?

Accepted Answer

Yes — unlimited virtual or physical cards, no per-card fees. Issue a new card in 60 seconds when a crew starts. Freeze any card with one click the day a job ends. Use card groups to bucket cards by crew, truck, or job site, with shared budgets and roll-up reporting per group.

Question 6

How does Slash help me pay subcontractors and suppliers?

Accepted Answer

On the Pro plan ($25/mo), outgoing domestic wires, same-day ACH, and FedNow/RTP transfers are free. Same-day payouts to subs and material vendors with zero per-transaction fees eating into your job margin. Send each payment from the virtual account tied to the job, so the cost lands in the right project automatically.

Question 7

Can I invoice homeowners and GCs through Slash?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Send professional invoices directly from your Slash dashboard. Customers pay by ACH, wire, or card straight from the invoice — no third-party billing tool needed. Auto-reminders, status tracking, and partial-payment support cut DSO so you get paid faster on every job.

Question 8

What cashback do contractors earn on Slash cards?

Accepted Answer

Up to 2% cashback on every purchase — no caps, no rotating bonus categories, no exclusions on materials or fuel. Same rate at the supply house, the gas pump, and the equipment rental yard. Free plan earns 1.5%, Pro earns 2%. No annual fee on the card.

Question 9

Is Slash a bank? Are my deposits insured?

Accepted Answer

Slash partners with two FDIC-insured banks — Piermont Bank and Column N.A. Through Column's sweep network, your deposits can be spread across up to 800 partner banks for up to $200M in FDIC insurance, without you opening any of those accounts yourself. Treasury investments are offered through Atomic Brokerage LLC, a FINRA-regulated broker-dealer, and the underlying funds are managed by BlackRock.

Question 10

How is Slash priced for contractors and home services businesses?

Accepted Answer

Slash business banking is free — no minimums, no monthly fees, no overdraft fees, no card fees. Cards earn 1.5% cashback on the Free plan. Pro is $25/month per business and unlocks 2% cashback plus free domestic wires, free same-day ACH, and free FedNow/RTP — usually pays for itself in the first week of paying subs.
