Trust
We take the call. We collect. We pay the contractor.
Contractors on Binfluency do not drive around for quotes and they do not chase invoices. Customers call us at (844) 857-2267. We schedule the estimate, hold the deposit, dispatch the work, take the remaining payment, get the review, and release the payout.
01
The call
Call (844) 857-2267. We match a licensed DFW contractor.
02
Quote visit
We put the estimate on the book. They walk the work, not a sales pitch.
03
Deposit to start
You pay us. Held in escrow. Work can begin.
04
Dispatch
We send the contractor. They show up to do the job.
05
Balance + review
Remaining payment to us. You rate the work you actually got.
06
Payout
After your review, we pay the contractor. Guarantee still covers it.
07
Card to page
Contractors photograph a card. We mint a public ID and a till.
08
License desk
We help file Texas cards and insurance so the Guarantee can attach.
Binfluency Guarantee
We guarantee the work.
Eligible businesses show a license and an insurance policy on file. Jobs they finish on Binfluency are covered: if the result is not what was booked, we hold the payout, review the before-and-afters, and make it right — refund, redo, or a portion in between.
Insurance and licensing
We do not sell insurance and we are not a licensing bureau. We tell you which Texas card the trade needs, store what you upload, and open a help ticket if you want a human to walk the application.
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
TDLR air conditioning contractor
Most DFW HVAC work requires an ACR contractor license. We walk the application, exam path, and the insurance TDLR asks for.
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
TDLR class A barber
Shop and operator licenses are separate. We help you list the right one on your page and keep the expiration visible.
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
TDLR cosmetology salon
Salon license plus each operator. Color and chemical services need the establishment on file.
Texas Commission on Environmental Quality
TCEQ irrigator (when you install irrigation)
Planting itself is unlicensed. Irrigation, backflow, and pesticide apps are not. We flag which jobs need which card.
No TDLR card for mowing
General liability on the route
Weekly mow is unlicensed. We still want GL on the truck and a workers-comp path if you have a crew. The Guarantee attaches when those are on file.
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
TDLR plumber license
Responsible Master Plumber for the shop. We list the number on the page so the customer does not have to ask.
Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation
TDLR electrical contractor
Contractor license plus the city permit when the panel changes. We keep both next to the work.
Municipality + Texas GL
City registration and general liability
Texas does not issue a statewide roofer license. Cities do. We store the registration and the policy that covers the roof.
Texas Department of Agriculture
TDA pest control business license
The business is licensed, not just the tech. We list the TDA number and the applicator card.
Texas Health and Human Services
HHSC home and community support
Personal care is licensed; companion visits often are not. We help you describe only what you are allowed to sell.
Local league + Texas youth sports standards
Background checks, not a state license
No TDLR card for a soccer club. Parents still want a background check and accident policy. We list both on the profile.
Texas Comptroller
Texas sales tax permit
Products collect 8.25% in most of DFW. We turn the permit number into a badge and hold the tax until you file.
Texas State Board of Public Accountancy
TSBPA CPA or IRS PTIN
Books are unlicensed. Tax prep is not. We keep the credential next to the work so clients stop asking twice.
