You call a repair shop and say you need the work done fast. They quote you a rush fee on top of the regular price. You agree, they take your money, and then nobody shows up to do the job. That used to be your problem to solve.
We run a jobs platform that connects customers with repair techs in South Texas. When a tech accepts a rush job, they're promising to show up during a specific time window you picked. If that time passes and they don't arrive with a photo of the job, your rush fee gets refunded automatically after 48 hours. No argument, no chasing anyone down.
The tech still gets paid for any work they actually did. They just lose the rush bonus. It pushes everyone to be honest about what they can handle.
