About

Building Better Outcomes for Every Contractor

At Trusted Payments, we believe every skilled contractor deserves to run a successful, profitable business. Whether you're a sole trader or a growing company, we're here to help you achieve better cashflow with less effort.

Why We Exist

Home improvement is one of the most complained about sectors. Trades struggle with late payments, unreasonable customers, and unfair disputes, while homeowners worry about quality and reliability. These problems destroy trust and make it harder for good contractors to thrive. We founded Trusted Payments to build better outcomes.

Our Team

Our team previously built Resolver (helping consumers resolver over £4 billion of issues) and a leading cashback app helping save consumers millions at no cost. Through this work, they discovered that home improvement consistently topped complaint lists not due to poor workmanship, but from breakdowns in trust and communication.
