Payroll Updates, Klarna, Number Nicknames, Custom Frequencies and More

We’ve made SEVEN major updates to Rotor designed to give your customers more ways to pay and get help, and to give your team more control over scheduling, automations and payroll.

Klarna Payments

Customers can now split an invoice into Klarna installments at checkout. Klarna appears alongside Card and Google Pay in the client portal, and eligible invoices can be paid in 4 interest-free installments every 2 weeks.

Klarna transactions are charged at 6.5% + $0.30 per transaction.

What this gives you:

  • Another payment option at checkout for larger invoices

  • Customers pay over time while you are paid up front

  • Available across the client portal, web and mobile apps

To turn it on: go to Settings → Client Portal, enable Accept Klarna Payments, then scroll to the bottom of the page and press Save. The toggle will not take effect until you save.

Support Ticket Portal

Support tickets now have their own page in the portal on web. If you would rather not go through the chat bot, you can go straight to the Tickets tab and submit one with New Ticket.

The ticket portal makes it easier to:

  • Submit a request directly without using the chat bot

  • See outstanding and resolved tickets in one place

  • Check the status of anything still open

  • Reference past tickets and what was completed


Phone Number Nicknames

If you manage more than one phone number, you can now give each one a friendly nickname so your team can tell them apart at a glance. Nicknames show up in the Inbox alongside the number.

Nicknames help you:

  • Label numbers by purpose, such as Main Line, Sales or Support

  • Identify which number a call or message came in on

  • Manage multiple numbers without memorizing them

To set one: go to Settings → Engagement, select the number, and enter a Nickname.


Checklist Photos on the Customer

Every photo your team adds to a job checklist now shows up on that customer’s record, so you have a running visual history of the work without digging through individual jobs.

Each photo shows:

  • Who added it

  • A button that takes you straight to the job it came from

This makes it easier to answer questions about past visits, verify work that was completed, and see how a property has changed over time.

We also fixed a bug relating to technicians still being able to complete a job when the job checklist was forced to be completed first.

Custom Frequencies - LIVE ON WEB

You can now set a custom cadence on recurring work on web instead of picking from the preset list. Enter a number in the Every field and choose Day(s), Week(s) or Month(s) — for example, every 6 weeks.

On daily cadences, click the calendar icon next to the frequency to open Customize schedule and choose which days of the week the plan runs. You can select up to 7 days. Day selection does not affect the first job — it applies to the recurring jobs that follow.

These changes will be live on mobile as well with the next App update.

Remove from Pipeline

There is a new automation action: Remove from Pipeline. It archives the triggering opportunity and takes it out of its pipeline, with no configuration needed. It is only available when the workflow trigger is an opportunity.

Payroll Updates

Four changes to how payroll calculates and displays pay.

1. Multi-tech jobs no longer split before commission. When more than one technician is on a job, the job amount is no longer divided between them before the commission rate is applied. Each technician earns their rate on the full job amount.

2. New rate modifier for shared jobs. There is now a Technician count condition on commission rate modifiers, so you can add or subtract percentage points based on how many techs share the job.

3. Tips are payable on payroll. Tips now appear as their own payable rows and can be paid out alongside commission.

4. Upsell rate clarification on Rate Settings. Rate Settings now shows a breakdown of what a user earns on an upsold line item. The technician rate covers the work and the upsell rate is added on top of it. If someone else sold the upsell, that person earns the upsell portion and this user keeps the technician portion.

What Else We've Been Up To

Among a long list of changes and improvements, here are some of the highlights from the past few months:

New Financials Tab: A completely redesigned financial hub bringing Invoices, Payments, and Payouts together in one place — plus Instant Payouts, Partial Refund handling, and ACH payment support.

Expanded Automations & API: Invoice Reminders in workflows, plus new automation triggers that recognize actions taken on mobile. Our growing API is also making it easier than ever for teams to integrate Rotor into the tools and workflows they already rely on.

Improved Support for International Businesses: Better defaults and fewer friction points for businesses operating outside of the USA.
