Built for painters, not for accountants.

Bilingual materials list

Paint codes, litres, primer, filler, masking — the materials list reads the same in Polish, German or English. Quote a Polish homeowner the colour spec in PL, send the same line-by-line breakdown in DE to the German letting agent paying the bill, archive the English copy for the UK head office. One job, one VAT number, line-for-line identical.

Recurring contracts for letting agents

Letting agents and small commercial clients want the same repaint every void. Set the quote once as a recurring template; MarginTap re-issues it (and the invoice on acceptance) every month, every quarter, every turnover — in the language of the recipient. No re-typing, no "can you send last month's again?" emails.

Offline on the scaffold

Scaffolds, lofts, basements, communal areas with no 4G — MarginTap keeps writing. Quote the next-door neighbour while standing on the platform; the PDF sends itself the moment you step down. No "I'll write it up tonight" and never doing it.

Painters — your questions

Can the materials list show paint codes and litres in two languages on the same quote?
Yes. The line items, paint codes, finishes and litre quantities stay identical across languages — only the surrounding text translates. The homeowner reads the spec in Polish, the agent reading the same PDF in German sees the same paint codes and the same totals. One job, one VAT number, no rounding drift.
I do monthly recurring repaints for a letting agent — can MarginTap re-issue the invoice automatically?
Yes. Recurring invoices live on Pro. Set the schedule (every void, every month, every quarter), set the language per recipient, MarginTap re-issues the invoice on cadence. The letting agent gets it in their language, you get the paid notification, the accountant gets a clean CSV at month-end.
Bilingual quote for a job where the homeowner is Polish and the agent is German — really one VAT number?
Yes. The quote and the invoice both carry your single VAT number, regardless of which language the PDF is exported in. The same line totals, the same VAT lines, the same job reference. Three documents from one quote if needed. No other invoicing app for tradesmen handles this.
Does it work without internet — I'm in stairwells and basements all week.
Offline-first by default. The quote builder, line library, signature pad and PDF preview run on the phone with no connection. Communal areas, basements, lofts, scaffolds — MarginTap keeps writing. The PDF sends the moment reception returns.
Per-square-metre or per-room — can the line library do both?
Both. The schedule of rates library on Pro holds per-square-metre lines for new builds and big jobs, plus per-room lines for void repaints and quick turnovers. Switch between them per quote; pre-loaded paint codes and litre defaults follow. Edit once, every future quote benefits.
Why €9.99/month when most decorator apps charge per user?
Because most painters work alone or with one mate. MarginTap is flat €9.99/month — one trader, unlimited quotes and invoices, recurring contracts included on Pro, no per-seat tax. €79/year saves 34%. Crew seats are €4/seat/month if you need them. 14-day Pro trial, no card to start.
