Why ClearYard
The pour goes fine. The paperwork is the problem.
Month close today
The trucks run on time and every load meets spec. The paperwork is where it slips: sticky notes litter v4 of last month’s AR printout, checks wait in a drawer for the next bank run. Nobody can answer a simple question about the money until the month is over.

Day 1 · what the driver hands over
The payment lives on the ticket.
- MIX · LOAD
- 4000 PSI, slump 4", 9.00 CY of a 44.50 CY pour. These are fields your batch system already wrote. ClearYard reads them; nobody retypes them into a payment screen.
- BATCHED 07:42 · ON JOB 08:11
- Delivery time sits on the same piece of paper as the money. An argument about a late truck and an argument about an unpaid load become one conversation.
- PAID · ACH
- The contractor paid by ACH paylink. The stamp means the money has settled, so there is nothing left to invoice at month end.
Day 1
Get paid faster.
Payment happens at the delivery instead of waiting on a statement. Contractors on account keep their terms. Everyone else settles on the spot, onto the ticket, with nobody keying it in later.

Every load
Know what every payment costs.
Cost per payment method, per customer, per job. When a large contractor order comes through, you can steer it to a lower-cost method before the card comes out.

Every week
See the money, then go get the late half.
Counter, field, online and open invoices in one view. ClearYard shows who is late and by how much, then sends the paylink, the statement, or places the call. You choose which, per customer.

Month close
Close the month without the chase.
Reconciliation by job, customer, ticket, and method that matches the ledger. Statements the contractor recognizes, so the disputes that eat your controller's week get shorter.

Every week · the chase
Every late account, on one list.
ClearYard keeps the past-due list current, sends what you told it to send, and writes down what came back. Example screens.
| Contractor | Balance | Late | Last action |
|---|---|---|---|
| Alvarez & Sons | $4,354.00 | 32 d | Call placed 09/04 |
| Ridgeline Builders | $2,523.00 | 13 d | Text sent 09/06, link opened |
| Hollis Bros. Grading | $2,140.00 | 10 d | Statement emailed 09/05 |
| Sandoval Excavating | $1,206.00 | 5 d | Reminder queued 09/09 |
Alvarez and Ridgeline are set to reminders. Hollis and Sandoval are set to a person, because you said so on the customer record. Alvarez is why ticket 91040 went out on hold this morning.
What was said
The load is approved. The check run is two weeks out, but Dana will pay by ACH today if she gets a link and a copy of the signed ticket for PO 8871.

Your brand
A payment portal with your name on it.
Contractors pay on a page that carries your yard’s name, your logo and your terms. They see their open tickets and their statement, they pay by card or ACH, and they never create an account to do it. ClearYard appears once, in small type at the foot.
It is the same page the paylink in a reminder text opens, so the chase and the counter end up in one place.

Payments by ClearYard
Works with
It reads the system your plant already runs.
The ticket already exists before ClearYard touches it. Payment attaches to that ticket and posts to the ledger your controller already closes, so nobody types a number twice.

Running something that is not on this list? Say so on the walkthrough. Most batch systems put out a ticket file we can read in the first week.
And how the money is handled
- PCI DSSCard data is handled in a compliant environment. It never lands in your batch system or your ledger.
- FDIC insuredFunds sit in insured bank accounts between the chute and your account.
- PAX devicesCertified terminals at the counter and in the truck.
Every load
A card pays fast. It also takes the most.
The Riverbend Lot 4 pour ran 44.50 CY across five loads, $7,792.00 on one job. The method the contractor reaches for decides what you keep on it. The gap is small enough to ignore on a single load and large enough to matter by the end of a month.
Run it against your month
$7,310
kept per month at these rates, or $87,720 a year.
What ClearYard charges
ACH at a flat rate. Card at cost plus a flat markup, so the interchange you pay is the interchange the card brand set. No monthly minimum and no line on the statement you cannot explain.
We quote against your last statement on the walkthrough, before you commit to anything.
Example rates: 2.90% card, 0.75% ACH, the range most producers are already paying. Your rates are your rates, and ClearYard shows you the real ones per method, per customer, per job. These figures are illustrative arithmetic on the example rates.
No charge
Send us last month’s statement.
Attach it to the walkthrough form below. We read it line by line and hand back what each method cost you, by customer and by job. You keep the teardown whether or not you ever buy anything from us.
From the yard
It fits the day you already run.
Nobody at the plant has time to learn a finance product. Payment sits where the ticket already is, so the change shows up as less work, not more.
Dispatch
The load goes out the same way.
Payment terms come off the customer record. No call to the office to ask whether Alvarez is on hold.
Front counter
One screen, every method.
Take card or tap at the counter, send an ACH paylink, or put it on account. Every payment is recorded against the ticket number.
Driver
Take payment at the chute.
Tap-to-pay on delivery, signed to the ticket number. The truck leaves the site settled.
Controller
Close against the ledger.
Every method reconciles by ticket and job. Statements go out looking like the tickets the contractor already signed.
Who it’s for
Ready-mix first, and it shows.
ClearYard works from the ticket and the load. Producers who run this way get a system that already speaks their terms.
- +Independent and regional ready-mix concrete producers, roughly 1 to 20 plants
- +Selling to contractors on account and at the counter
- +Operators who also run paving and aggregate off the same yard
- ·Not built for general contractors or building-supply retail.
The lines you run alongside it
Ready-mix comes first. Most producers are not only ready-mix, though, and if you also run a paving crew or sell aggregate off the scale, those tickets land in the same ledger, on the same statement, under the same customer.
Questions
The things producers ask first.
What is ClearYard?
ClearYard is a payments and money-management platform for ready-mix concrete producers. It starts at the ticket. Contractors pay by card at the jobsite or the plant, by ACH through a paylink whenever they are ready, or stay on account, and every payment is tied to the load. From there it shows what each method costs you by customer and by job, works your past-due list, and reconciles every method to the ledger at month close.
Who is ClearYard for?
Independent and regional ready-mix concrete producers running roughly 1 to 20 plants and selling to contractors on account and at the counter. Operators who also run paving or sell aggregate off the same yard fit the same way. It is not built for general contractors or building-supply retail.
How do contractors pay?
By card at the jobsite or the plant, by ACH through a paylink whenever they are ready, or on account. Every payment is tied to the ticket number. They can also pay through a branded portal that carries your yard’s name, where they see their open tickets and statement. No account creation is required to pay.
Does ClearYard work with my batch and dispatch system?
ClearYard reads the ticket your batch and dispatch system already creates, and posts payment and fee detail back to your accounting system, so nobody types a number twice. Integrations with Command Alkon, Sysdyne, Marcotte and Integra on the plant side, and QuickBooks, Sage and Viewpoint on the ledger side, are in progress. Most batch systems produce a ticket file that can be read within the first week.
What does ClearYard cost?
ACH is charged at a flat rate. Card is charged at cost plus a flat markup, so the interchange you pay is the interchange the card brand set. There is no monthly minimum. Pricing is quoted against your last processing statement during the walkthrough, before you commit to anything.
How much does a producer save by steering card payments to ACH?
The saving is the spread between the two methods on the volume you move. At an example 2.90% card rate and 0.75% ACH rate, moving 40% of $850,000 in monthly card volume to ACH is a difference of about $7,310 a month before what ClearYard charges. Your own rates decide the real figure.
How does ClearYard help collect past-due balances?
It keeps a current past-due list showing who is late, by how much, and what was already sent. It then sends a text with a paylink, emails the statement, builds a call list for your controller, or places the call itself and records a transcript with the next step. You choose which of those each customer gets.
Is card data handled securely?
Card data is handled in a PCI DSS compliant environment and never lands in your batch system or your ledger. Funds sit in FDIC insured bank accounts between the chute and your account, and counter and in-truck terminals are PAX certified devices.
Can ClearYard quote jobs?
Yes. ClearYard is designed with quotes in mind. It can build them, with the margin checked and the cost of each payment method visible while the price is being set. If you already quote in another system, ClearYard reads those quotes instead. Either way, every invoice ties back to its quote.
Does ClearYard replace my accounting system?
No. ClearYard sits between the ticket and the ledger. It reconciles by job, customer, ticket and method, and produces a daily close file your existing accounting system accepts as it stands.
