Getting Started

Get your shop up and running on TechsBox in just a few steps.

1. Create Your Account

  1. Go to techsbox.com and click Get Started
  2. Enter your email address
  3. Check your inbox for a magic link — click it to sign in (no password needed)
  4. You're in!
ℹ️

TechsBox uses magic link authentication. Every time you sign in, we send a secure link to your email. No passwords to remember or reset.

2. Set Up Your Shop

After signing in for the first time, you'll set up your shop:

  1. Shop Name — The name your customers know you by (e.g., "Tech Time Repairs")
  2. Subdomain — Your unique URL: yourshop.techsbox.com
  3. Address & Phone — So customers can find you
  4. Business Hours — When you're open for appointments
  5. Logo — Upload your shop logo for invoices and your public page

You can change all of these later in Settings.

3. Add Your First Customer

Navigate to Customers in the sidebar and click New Customer. Enter their:

  • Name
  • Email and/or phone number
  • Any notes you want to remember

That's it. Customer created.

4. Create Your First Job

From the customer's profile (or from the Jobs page):

  1. Click New Job
  2. Select the customer
  3. Describe the issue (e.g., "iPhone 15 cracked screen")
  4. Set the status to Intake
  5. Assign a tech (or keep it unassigned)
  6. Save

Your first work order is live. You can update it as work progresses — add notes, change status, attach an invoice when it's done.

5. Send an Invoice

When the job is complete:

  1. Open the job and click Create Invoice
  2. Add line items (parts, labor, services)
  3. Click Send to email it to the customer
  4. They pay online via Stripe — money goes directly to your bank account
