Questions from Charlotte holiday lighting contractors

How do AI lighting previews work for Charlotte homes?
You or your client uploads a photo of the front of the home. BidSwift's AI generates a realistic before/after mockup showing holiday lights installed on that specific Charlotte property. The preview is embedded in your estimate link — clients see the finished display before they commit. This dramatically increases close rates because the decision becomes emotional and visual, not just financial.
Can I collect a deposit when a Charlotte client approves the estimate?
Yes. BidSwift estimate links include integrated Stripe payment. When a Charlotte homeowner approves the lighting estimate, they pay the deposit immediately from the same link — no separate invoicing required. The deposit covers your material costs and confirms the booking. Funds go directly to your Stripe account.
