Auto Teletech is a platform that enables independent auto mechanics to offer paid video consultations to car owners who need advice or help with their car issues.
No, you work for yourself. You're an independent freelancer. Auto Teletech simply provides the platform to help you get paid for your car advice.
No. Joining and using Auto Teletech is completely free.
Yes. You can stop using the platform at any time. There are no commitments.
You set your own consultation fees and earn money from each successful consultation. Auto Teletech only gets a commission when you get paid.
You set your own price, but the minimum is $10 to cover third-party application fees. We suggest starting at $20 and increasing your rate as you gain more reviews, but you can charge whatever you feel is fair for your time, expertise, and what your customers can afford.
Customers enter their card details when booking, but they are only charged after the video consultation is completed. Your earnings (minus Auto Teletech's fees) are then transferred to your Stripe account.
Yes. You'll need a Stripe account to securely accept payments. You can use an existing Stripe account or create a new one; it's quick and free.
No. You must connect Stripe to your Auto Teletech account to complete consultations and get paid.
Auto Teletech takes a 25% fee from each paid consultation. For example, if you charge $20, you keep $15, and Auto Teletech keeps $5. This fee helps cover Stripe charges, platform maintenance, software licenses, and ongoing marketing and development.
Auto Teletech is currently available to Auto Technicians based in the U.S. and Canada only. We're working on expanding to more countries soon—stay tuned!

You control the duration of your consultations. From experience, most consultations typically run between 7 and 30 minutes, but can be as short or as long as you want. Your main goal should always be to genuinely help your customers. Remember, your customers will rate you at the end of each consultation and can refer new customers to you.
No limit. Please note that you can only complete one consultation at a time. If you receive multiple consultations, they will all appear on your dashboard (My Customer Requests), but you can only complete them one at a time.
If they cancel before the session starts, they will not be charged, and their request will be removed from your dashboard (My Customer Requests).
No. Just a phone or laptop with a camera and internet access.
We use it to send you alerts when a customer books a consultation. Your number is never shared unless you choose to.
It's a flexible income stream. You don't have to quit your job to use it. It's designed to fit around your schedule, but if you promote your link well, it can grow into a significant source of income/full-time job.
