Your client pays in stages and approves each one. Cabin holds every stage until they do, and sorts CIS as it goes. You pay 2% of the project, taken as the job goes.
Get started in the appHow it works
Three steps from job created to fully managed staged payments — no invoicing, no chasing, no spreadsheets.
Set the total value, split labour and materials, choose duration. Build the payment schedule — deposit, weekly stages, final.
Enter their email. Cabin sends them a secure link. They review the schedule, add their card, and pay the deposit. No app required.
Weekly stages charge automatically. Your client approves each release. CIS deducted on every payment. Final stage requires both approvals.
Built for the job
Cabin Projects isn't just a payment tool — it's a full compliance and payment rail for project work.
Cabin is the CIS contractor. Deductions calculated on labour, applied on every release, recorded for your monthly return. Nothing to file manually.
Deposit captured on sign-up. Weekly stages charged automatically. Client gets a reminder 48 hours before each payment — no surprises.
The final payment only releases when both you and your client approve.
Your client pays no platform fee. They get a professional payment experience, full schedule visibility, and every stage held by Cabin until they approve it.
A CIS deduction statement is generated after every payment. Emailed to you automatically, stored in the app, ready for your accountant.
Set your labour and materials split when creating the job. CIS deductions apply to labour only — materials pass through in full.

If you're doing work over more than a day and taking money from a client, Cabin Projects handles the financial side.
You're doing the work and dealing directly with a domestic or commercial client.
You're bringing in sub-trades and managing the project on behalf of a client.
