How FlyTrap Actually Operates
Realistic, controlled, mechanic-built.
A short, honest breakdown of how FlyTrap runs right now — so customers and mechanics know exactly what they're signing up for.
Signatures & Waivers
Real documentation. Real protection.
Every job is backed by digital signatures, timestamps, and a clear paper trail.
Work authorization signature
Customer signs digitally before any repair begins. Stored on the job file.
Safety repair disclaimer
If a safety-critical repair is declined, the customer signs a disclaimer acknowledging the risk.
Liability waiver
Standard waiver for at-home and roadside work — agreed to before dispatch.
Independent contractor structure
Mechanics are independent operators. FlyTrap connects, documents, and protects — does not employ.
Warranty & Disclosures
Clear warranties. Tracked claims.
FlyTrap is a marketplace — mechanics are independent operators. Warranties are theirs to honor, ours to document.
Labor warranty per mechanic
Each independent mechanic sets and discloses their own labor warranty (e.g. 30 / 60 / 90 days). Visible before booking.
Parts warranty pass-through
OEM and aftermarket parts carry the manufacturer's warranty. Receipts are stored in your service file.
Warranty claim workflow
File a claim through the original job ticket — FlyTrap routes it to the original mechanic and tracks resolution.
Fraud & Chargeback Protection
Mechanics get paid. Bad actors get removed.
The same documentation that protects customers protects mechanics from fraudulent chargebacks.
Chargeback protection
Documented estimates, signatures, and after-photos build the evidence file FlyTrap submits on a mechanic's behalf.
Bad-actor enforcement
Customers or mechanics flagged for fraud, theft, or harassment are removed and blocked across the platform.
Admin review center
Every flagged job is reviewed by FlyTrap operations — not auto-decided by an algorithm.
Pattern detection
Unusual cancel rates, repeat disputes, and payment failures trigger holds before they hurt mechanics.
Dispute Resolution
Fair process. Documented evidence wins.
Because every job is documented end-to-end, disputes are decided on facts — not who yells louder.
