Welcome to GarageManager
GarageManager is the back office for a South African auto workshop — clients and vehicles, quotes, job cards on the workshop floor, invoices, and getting paid. Everything is built around how a small shop actually runs: quote the job, do the work, invoice it, take the money.
Who it is for
Independent garages, mobile mechanics, and small multi-bay shops. If you are quoting and invoicing on paper or in a spreadsheet today, GM gives you a customer database, branded documents, online card payments via Paystack, and a profit view — without changing how you work.
The flow in one minute
- Add a client and their vehicle. The vehicle carries its own service history.
- Send a quote. The customer opens a link on their phone and accepts — no login.
- Open a job card to track work, parts, labour time, and assessment photos on the floor.
- Convert to an invoice. Parts and labour roll across; VAT applies if you are registered.
- Get paid. The public invoice link shows a Pay button once your bank is connected.
Getting the most out of it
- Spend 20 minutes on the setup checklist first — business details, branding, and your service catalog pay off on every document after.
- Build a service catalog as you go so pricing stays consistent and quoting gets faster.
- On PRO and ENTERPRISE you also get PDFs, reports, VAT, multi-mechanic time tracking, and unlimited clients — see Free vs PRO vs ENTERPRISE.
