How is a lead qualified?

When a homeowner submits a quote request, our SMS bot Sam asks for the job, timeline, suburb, and budget. Once the homeowner confirms by replying YES, we count it as verified and route it to you.

How much does it cost to list as a tradie?

Two options. Exclusive Territory: $250 per month with first month free. Pay-Per-Lead: from $25 per qualified, SMS-screened lead. No long-term contracts on either tier.

Two ways to work with us

Pick your model.
Switch any time.

Some tradies want every lead in their area, locked in. Others want to pick and choose. We support both.

Built for Australian tradies

Why Melbourne pest controllers run with us.

Every lead pre-screened

Every Melbourne lead is SMS-checked for treatment type (cockroach, rodent, termite, pre-purchase), property type (heritage, modern, apartment), and urgency — so emergency infestation work arrives properly flagged versus discretionary maintenance treatments.

Australian-owned, independent data

Cross-referenced against 90+ Australian pricing sources. Not a US lead aggregator wearing AU branding.

No long-term lock-in

Pay-per-lead has zero commitment. Exclusive is month-to-month with the first one free. Walk anytime.

Stripe-secured payments

Bank-grade security, automated invoicing, 1-tap accept. No chasing payment, no chargebacks.

Run the numbers

Why $250/month exclusive beats per-lead aggregators
for Melbourne pest controllers.

Most aggregators (HiPages, ServiceSeeking, Oneflare) charge a monthly fee PLUS per-lead. Each lead goes to 4-5 tradies racing to call first. Here's the actual math for a Melbourne pest-control after the same 5 verified leads.

Lead aggregators in Australia typically charge a base subscription ($150-$300/month) plus $50-$100 per "connection" or shared lead. Every lead gets sent to 4-5 tradies simultaneously, so you're racing to call first — and bidding against unknown competitors after that. Many leads close with someone other than you, despite the fact you paid for them.

Melbourne pest control jobs run $200–$3,500. A single booked job would typically more than cover a month's $250 territory fee — but how many enquiries turn into booked work depends on you and on demand in your area, so we can't promise a set number of jobs or any income. Your first month is free, so you can see what comes through before you pay anything.

That's why we offer first month FREE on exclusive territory. Card details captured securely via Stripe at sign-up — no charge for 30 days. Cancel anytime in the first month and never get billed. After 30 days, $250/month, billed automatically. Walk anytime after with no penalty.

Common questions

Everything you'd want to ask.

Why is Melbourne pest control strong year-round?

Melbourne’s diverse housing stock and large rental turnover market generate consistent year-round demand — inner-suburb apartment cockroach and rodent treatments dominate winter volume, middle-ring termite barrier work peaks in spring/autumn shoulder seasons, and pre-purchase inspection volume runs continuously with property transactions. Per-treatment values run $250–$500 for general pest and $2,500–$5,000 for termite barriers.

How many pest control leads come from Melbourne each month?

Active Melbourne pest control territories typically receive 3–15 verified leads per month — varying with season. We share live volume data from your specific area before you commit, so you know what to expect.

Why are Melbourne pest control leads worth more than other trades?

Melbourne pest control jobs run $200–$3,500+, much higher than the average trade lead. Each lead is SMS-screened for scope, suburb, timeline, and budget — so the homeowners you receive are real Melbourne property-owners with active pest control projects, ready to engage.

What's the difference between pay-per-lead and exclusive?

Pay-per-lead means you see verified leads as they come in and choose which to accept — from $25 each. Multiple tradies in your area receive the same lead. Exclusive territory means YOU are the only tradie we route from your trade and city — every verified lead comes to you, plus you're listed on the cost guide page that ranks on Google for your trade in that area.

How is the lead qualified?

When a homeowner submits a quote request, our SMS bot Sam asks a few questions: what's the job, when do you need it done, what's your suburb, what's your budget. Once the homeowner confirms by replying YES, we count it as verified and route it to you. Most tyre-kickers drop off in the qualification step.

What happens during my free month on exclusive?

Same as a paying month — you get every verified lead in your trade and city, listed on the cost guide page, full access. After 30 days we ask if you want to continue. If yes, $250/month rolling. If no, cancel before day 31 and you'll never be charged.

What if my territory has low lead volume?

We're transparent about volume per territory before you sign up. We'll show you how many leads that page has generated in the last 30 and 90 days, plus our Google ranking position. If volume is too low to justify $250/month, we'll tell you to start with pay-per-lead instead.

Can I switch from pay-per-lead to exclusive later?

Yes — many tradies do exactly this. Start with pay-per-lead to test the leads, then upgrade to exclusive once you've proven the volume works for your business. Just let us know.

Can I have exclusive in multiple trades or cities?

Yes. Each combination is a separate territory at $250/month. Some tradies cover one specialty in two cities, others cover three trades in one city. You only pay for the territories you hold.

What trades and areas do you cover?

36 trades across 14 Australian cities and growing — all major capitals plus Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong, Geelong, Hobart, Townsville, Cairns, Launceston, Central Coast. Specialty trades (pest-control, plumber, kitchen reno, bathroom reno, fencing) tend to have the most active territories.
