Zulma keeps billing straightforward: prices are shown in Canadian dollars, HST (13%) is itemized on every quote before you confirm, and there are no hidden fees. Here is how payment works from the moment you book to the receipt in your inbox.

How payment works

Zulma supports two payment models, clearly labelled at checkout. Card pre-authorization (default when card payments are enabled) — when you confirm a booking, your card is pre-authorized for the quoted amount. No charge is captured until a crew member accepts the job. If no crew member accepts in time, the hold is fully released and nothing is charged to your account. Pay on completion (current beta default) — no card on file is required. You settle directly with the crew member after the visit, by cash, e-transfer, or invoice.
During the beta, pay on completion is the default payment model. Card pre-authorization is available when you add a card to your account. Both options are clearly labelled at checkout.

Supported cards

Zulma accepts Visa, Mastercard, and American Express — all major Canadian and international cards.

Security and PCI-DSS compliance

Card data is handled entirely by Stripe, a PCI-DSS certified payment processor. Zulma never sees your full card number. Only a tokenized reference is stored on your account. You can add, remove, or change your default card at any time from Account → Payments without re-entering your details everywhere.

Managing saved cards

Go to Account → Payments to:
  • Add a new card
  • Remove a saved card
  • Set a different card as your default
You can save multiple cards and switch between them at checkout.

Tips

Tips are entirely optional. When you add a tip through Zulma, 100% of the amount goes directly to the crew member who performed the work. Zulma takes no portion of any tip.
Tips are settled separately from the base service price and are not refundable once paid.

Receipts

A receipt is issued after every completed booking. Receipts are CRA-compliant and itemize HST (13%) so you have proper documentation for your records. Recurring booking prices are locked at the agreed per-visit rate for the duration of your schedule, subject to any service-area-wide rate adjustments communicated at least 30 days in advance.
