The shop
Everything from drop-off to pickup
Built around how a shop actually runs: the service desk, the bays and the customer waiting on a call.
Repair orders and estimates
Build a job from saved presets, price parts and labour, and turn an estimate into a repair order and then an invoice without retyping a thing.
Inspections with photos
Techs mark what's red, yellow and green. Customers see the photos and approve the work from a link.
Tire storage
Know whose sets are on which rack, and bill storage every season without a spreadsheet.
Parts and purchase orders
Order parts, receive them into stock and match the vendor's bill.
A phone app for techs
Each tech sees their jobs, clocks time and adds photos from the bay.
Appointments and reminders
Book the day, and bring customers back when their next service is due.
Books & payroll
Your books keep themselves
Every invoice, payment, bill and pay run posts to a real double-entry ledger as it happens. At month-end there's nothing to re-enter.
Sales tax, done right
GST/HST, PST and QST worked out by province, with returns ready to file.
Payroll for your crew
Pay runs, source deductions and remittances, T4s and ROEs.
Who owes who
Customer balances, vendor bills and aging at a glance.
Year-end for your accountant
Close the month, lock the period and hand over a print-ready set.

Questions shops ask
Where is my data kept?
In Canada. Zippy runs in Montréal, so your shop's records and books never leave the country.
Do I still need QuickBooks or a payroll service?
No. The accounting, sales tax returns and payroll are built in. Your accountant gets a year-end set straight from Zippy.
What happens when the trial ends?
Add a card to keep going. If you don't, your shop becomes read-only, and nothing is deleted.
Does it work for my province?
Yes. Sales tax is worked out for each province and territory, including Québec's QST.
