No fees or contracts, about ten minutes to set up, and a rebate on the installations your customers book.

Exhibit A

This block is the integration. Here is every part of it.

It sits on your product page, in your template, on your domain. Everything below is your site — the outlined block, Buddy included, is the only thing that is ours.

1
A real price, not a range
we compute it

The block knows which product they are looking at and roughly where they are, so it quotes the actual install price for that item at that address before they type anything.

2
The location, correctable
they control it

We default it from their connection and let them change it. The price moves with it, in front of them.

3
Add-ons, priced live
we keep it honest

Stairs, anchoring, haul-away. The quote adjusts as they pick, which is what keeps a fixed price fixed when the job turns out to be up two flights.

4
One tap to add
nothing to build

It goes onto their order from here. Your side of this is one line of code.

Exhibit B · Buddy, one of four looks

Buddy speaks at three moments. Switch him off and he doesn’t.

Compact line is the default look; Buddy is one click away in your partner app. The price is always on the card, with or without him. You can put your own mascot there instead; the prices and facts stay ours.

stairs
Going up stairs? Pick Stair carry so the price is right on the day.

The price moves in front of them, so the fixed price stays fixed.

no coverage
Sorry, no expert covers that ZIP yet. I'm staying out of your way.

No price he cannot honour. Your page carries on.

not today
Not adding it today? Tell me why, one tap.

One tap, no form. It tells us why shoppers pass on installation.

Your side of it

One line, and this screen to get it.

This is the Set up screen in your partner app. No app to authorise, no theme fork, no developer.

you, two minutes

Company, work email and your store address. You choose a password and land on this screen.

Your products, already matched
we do it

We read your store and show what we install, at the same fixed price as handybuddy.com. Where a code could mean two versions, we ask which one. Until you answer, that product shows no price.

Four looks, or yours
you pick

Compact line is the default. Card, Signature and Buddy are one click away. Match my store uses your font and button colour.

Through your checkout

Your checkout, untouched.

Assembly never enters your cart as a line item and never touches your payment. Your total is your product, your gateway settles it, and your refunds work the way they always have.

your cart

Not a line item

On Shopify, a note rides through your order to your confirmation email and admin. On other platforms, Book assembly opens our secure checkout over your product page and the shopper pays us directly.

your money

Your gateway, your total

We never sit between you and your customer’s payment for the product. Assembly is settled separately, by us.

your refunds

Unchanged

Refunding the product is your process, exactly as it is today. The assembly booking is ours to unwind.

After they book

The part nobody else puts on a page like this.

Your customer’s job does not end at the payment, and neither does ours. This is the whole chain, and none of it lands on your team.

Your support team’s part in all of this: none of it.
When we cannot cover it

What happens on the addresses we cannot reach.

No network covers every postcode. What matters is what your product page does when ours does not — and it is never a broken promise in front of your customer.

no coverage

The block stands down

If we have no qualified expert for that address, the block does not offer a price it cannot honour, and Buddy says so plainly. Your page carries on as if it were not there.

no match

We tell them, and we refund

If a job is booked and we cannot staff it, the customer hears it from us and their money goes back. You are not the one apologising.

changed plans

Reschedules are ours

Moves and cancellations run through us. Your support team never becomes our dispatch desk.

Shopify · BigCommerce · WooCommerce · any store

How to offer assembly on your Shopify store, in about ten minutes.

No app to configure, no installers to hire, no scheduling to run. You set it up yourself from the partner app, and there are no fees or contracts.

01

Create your account

Your store address, brand name and work email. No application, nothing to sign.

02

Pick your products

We read your store and sort it for you: what we already install turns on with one click, and anything new is priced by our team, usually within a business day.

03

Choose a look

Compact line, Card, Signature or Buddy, above or below your Add to cart. Preview it on your own product page before you save.

04

Paste one line

One script tag in your theme. On Shopify that is your product template; it works the same on BigCommerce, WooCommerce and custom stores.

Why stores add it

White-glove assembly for your store, without running a service team.

Big, heavy, flat-packed products are exactly the ones shoppers hesitate on. Take the build off their list at the moment they decide, and the order gets easier to say yes to.

Sell the bigger item

When it will be built for them, shoppers stop trading down to the box they think they can manage, and they add more to the order.

Fewer returns and one-star reviews

Half-built boxes go back and "too hard to assemble" ends up in your reviews. A finished, checked build doesn’t.

Fewer support tickets

We match the expert, schedule the visit and handle every question about the install. Your team doesn’t field “how do I build this”.

Earn a rebate

Partners can earn a rebate on the installations their customers book. No fees or contracts on your side, ever.

An example partner

Fringe Sport: racks and functional trainers, built for their customers.

Fringe Sport sells home and garage gym equipment online. Their customers book professional installation for the heavy pieces, like the Dane 2.0 half rack functional trainer, at one fixed price, from vetted local experts.

Every Fringe product we install has its own page and price on HandyBuddy, and the same price shows wherever Fringe offers it.

Questions stores ask

Offering assembly on your store: the short answers.

How do I offer assembly on my Shopify store?

Create a free HandyBuddy partner account, turn on the products you want to offer, pick a look and paste one line of code into your product template. Shoppers then see a fixed assembly price on the product page and add it in your normal checkout.

Does it work on BigCommerce, WooCommerce or a custom store?

Yes. The widget is one script tag, so it works on Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce and custom storefronts. The partner app checks your page and confirms it is installed.

What does it cost my store?

Nothing. There are no fees or contracts. Your customer pays the fixed assembly price, and partners can earn a rebate on the installations their customers book.

Who does the assembly, and who handles scheduling?

Vetted local experts from the HandyBuddy network. We match the expert, schedule the visit, handle reschedules and support, and stand behind every install with our Happiness Guarantee.

What if you don’t cover a customer’s address?

The widget checks coverage before it offers a price. If we can’t reach an address it steps aside instead of making a promise, and if something changes after booking, we tell the customer and refund them.

How long does setup take?

About ten minutes for most stores. Products we already install turn on straight away; anything new is priced by our team, usually within one business day.

Send us a product URL and we will show you the block on your page, with a real price in it. Nothing to sign to look.
