Common Questions

Towing payment FAQs

How do towing companies accept credit card payments?
Tow operators can accept cards right on any iPhone or Android with tap-on-glass. The customer taps their card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay on your phone screen at the scene. No extra hardware needed.
What is the best payment app for tow truck operators?
CoreMobile needs zero hardware to mount, charge, or pair, and runs on cellular data so you can take payment anywhere you work, roadside or at the lot, with no Wi-Fi.
Can I take payment roadside with no Wi-Fi?
Yes. CoreMobile runs on cellular data, so as long as your phone has a signal, payments process normally at the scene or on the shoulder. No Wi-Fi required.
Can I pass processing fees to the customer?
Yes. CoreMobile's surcharging feature compliantly passes card processing fees to the customer, shown clearly at checkout, so you protect your margin on every tow.
How quickly do I get paid after a tow?
Payouts land on a next-business-day basis on average, so you're not waiting on your money after a long day of calls.
Features

Built for operators who work fast and get paid on the spot

Everything a towing company needs to collect on every call, and none of the equipment headaches.

Tap on Glass

The customer taps their card, phone, or watch directly on your phone screen. No pairing, no extra devices. Collect the moment the tow is done, before the vehicle leaves your hook.

Easy Setup

Apply online. Once you're approved, download the app. No waiting for hardware shipments or terminal installs. You're ready to take payment on your next call.

Cellular-First Reliability

You're rarely near Wi-Fi on a tow. CoreMobile runs on your phone's cellular data, so payments go through roadside, in a lot, or on a back road. No dropped connections mid-transaction.

Surcharging

Pass credit card processing fees to the customer compliantly and transparently. Protect your margin on every tow, storage day, and service call without raising your posted rates.

The Problem

Card readers in a tow truck are a liability, not an asset

Dead batteries, pairing failures, and no signal have cost operators real payments. CoreMobile eliminates all of it.

Card Readers at Shows

  • Dead battery halfway through your shift
  • No Wi-Fi on the shoulder or a back road
  • One more thing to mount, charge, and troubleshoot
  • Lost or damaged reader = a tow you can't collect on
  • Hardware failures at the worst possible moment

With CoreMobile

  • Runs on your phone, already charged
  • Works on cellular data. No Wi-Fi needed
  • Nothing extra to mount or set up
  • Your phone is never lost without you noticing
  • Zero hardware. Just your phone
