Good questions

No monkey business. Just answers.

Can I text customers back and forth?

Yes, on the $179/month Company plan. Connect your own Twilio number in Settings and every customer conversation lands in one Conversations inbox, with the customer's details beside the chat. You can also text from any customer card. Twilio bills you directly, and MonkeyLio never charges for these texts.

Which plans include the calendar, Client Hub and Sales Pipeline?

Calendar is included on Solo, Crew and Company. Client Hub and Sales Pipeline are exclusive to the $179/month Company plan and included in every full-feature 30-day trial.

Can I see my payments and deposits in MonkeyLio?

Yes. Once you connect your Stripe account in Settings, the Money page shows every customer payment, bank deposit, your available balance, failed payments, refunds and disputes, with date filters and daily, weekly or monthly charts. You can export to CSV and issue full or partial refunds. Only the owner can see it, and your Stripe key is encrypted and never shown.

Can I turn off automatic texts?

Yes. In Automations, switch off any automatic text one by one, for example invoice texts or the job started and finished updates. Turned-off texts are not sent and do not use your allowance.

Can MonkeyLio replace the contact form on my website?

Yes, on the Company plan. Copy a short snippet into your website and MonkeyLio shows a contact form with questions for your trade, which you can edit any time. Each request is saved as a new customer, you get an email and a text, and the customer gets a confirmation.

What is Ask MonkeyLio?

An AI assistant inside the app, included in the Company plan. It answers questions using your own MonkeyLio data, looks at job photos to suggest what may be wrong and how to fix it, and can search the web. It can make mistakes, so check important answers. It reads your data but never changes it.

How long is the free trial?

30 days, no card needed. Every trial includes all Company features and 50 texts, even if you selected Solo or Crew for later. Pick your trade for starter prices and a job checklist. When the trial ends, subscribe to keep going or cancel and delete your account. Nothing is billed automatically.

Can I choose a lower plan before my trial ends?

Yes. In Plan & billing, choose Solo, Crew or Company for after your trial at no charge. You keep all Company features until the trial ends. Your choice is a preference, not a subscription: you must confirm and pay for your subscription after the trial.

Is it set up for my trade?

Yes. Choose plumbing, electrical, HVAC, landscaping, handyman, duct & vent cleaning, restoration & mold, home & office cleaning, roofing, tree service, asphalt paving, moving, appliance repair, painting, pressure washing, flooring installation, fencing, garage door service, pest control, pool service, windows & remodeling, junk removal, pooper scooper service, dog walking or auto detailing and you get trade-specific starter prices, on-site checklists and equipment types. You can change your trade or edit everything in Settings.

Can I track my crew's hours on the job site?

Yes. Crew members start and end time from the job on their phone. MonkeyLio stamps each start and end with the time and GPS location, shows how far it was from the job address, and flags entries without location. Location is recorded only at those taps, not tracked continuously.

Do my employees get the app?

Yes. Invited crew members sign in, add MonkeyLio to their home screen, and land on My jobs with directions, customer contact and the time clock.

Does MonkeyLio work in other languages?

Yes. The website and the app run in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Haitian Creole and French. First-time visitors start in their phone's language, and you can switch any time from the globe menu. Your choice is remembered on every device, and customer names, job titles and dollar amounts stay exactly as you typed them.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. MonkeyLio runs on both. Crew add it to the home screen from Safari on iPhone or iPad, or from Chrome on Android phones and tablets — no app store download needed.

Is MonkeyLio just for plumbers?

No. MonkeyLio is a universal quoting platform. It’s especially suited to trades and service businesses, but any business that quotes for work can use it.

What does my customer receive?

A proposal link with your business branding, itemised work, selected job photos, totals, terms and agreement. They can review it and accept or decline.

Where do customer payments go?

Connect your own Stripe secret key in your business settings. Payments made through that connection go to your business’s Stripe account, not another trade company’s account. Stripe’s own fees apply.

Can I bill before or after the job?

Both. Choose per quote: bill up front and the customer can pay as soon as they accept, or bill on completion and send the invoice by text when the work is done. The customer’s proposal page becomes their invoice with a pay button.

Can I change my plan later?

Yes. Owners upgrade or downgrade any time from Plan & billing, and the difference is prorated. Features switch on or off automatically to match the plan.

How many text messages are included?

Solo includes 100 texts a month, Crew 200 and Company 500 — proposals, invoices, job updates and reminders all count. If you run out, buy a top-up of any amount from 50 to 5,000 texts at 2¢ each on Plan & billing. Top-ups never expire.

Can I put customers on a recurring schedule?

Yes. Set a job to repeat weekly, every 2 weeks, monthly, quarterly or yearly. When a visit is completed, MonkeyLio creates the next one automatically with the same price — ideal for cleaning routes, mowing rounds and maintenance plans.

Who is behind MonkeyLio?

MonkeyLio is built and operated by UpPluck, a small team in Massachusetts. Everything you need to know is in our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy, linked in the footer.

Can I keep customer notes and photos private?

Yes. Customer notes and the customer photo library are private to your business. Only photos you explicitly include in a quote become part of the customer’s proposal.

Can my team use it on their phones?

Yes. Invite staff to your business and assign jobs to them. MonkeyLio works in a browser and can be added to a phone’s home screen. It requires an internet connection.
