Alerts on the phone, with quiet hours respected
Real-time alerts on mobile.
Part of communications & voice in Gaffer, which replaces personal WhatsApp, a mobile number and a lot of interruptions.
Customers kept informed without anyone pressing send.
Two-way SMS and email from one inbox, automatic updates at every job milestone, and an optional VoIP line with an AI receptionist that answers when you are on a roof.
The “what time are you coming?” calls stop, because the customer already knows.
Push notifications are one of the 14 things in communications & voice. See the rest →
- Alerts on the phone for jobs, appointments, quotes, invoices, messages and reminders
- Mute the categories you do not want, per device rather than for the whole account
- Quiet hours in your own timezone, so an overnight alert does not wake the house
- Several devices per person, each registered separately and revocable on its own
- The same alerts land in an in-app list, so a push you missed is not a message you lost
Step 06 of the job: paid
The customer pays by card, Apple Pay or Direct Debit. Xero or QuickBooks are updated. A review request goes out. And eleven months later, the annual service reminder books the next job.
Communications & Voice is where push notifications sits, and that is the step it shows up in most. The rest of the job — quoting, scheduling, certificates, invoicing and payment — runs in the same system, on the same record. See the whole job →
What are push notifications for?

Do messages come from my own number?
Texts go from a dedicated business number so replies come back into Gaffer rather than to somebody’s personal mobile. Email is sent and received through your own mailbox.
Is there a limit on how much I can send?
Fair-use allowances cover normal trade volumes, and anything beyond that is passed through at cost rather than marked up. You will be told before it matters, not billed afterwards.
Which plan is it on?
Every paid plan. Push notifications is included for unlimited users at no extra cost — the monthly, annual and lifetime plans differ only in how you pay.
