Parking Lot Striping Business Software (2026)
For a solo line striping business, ShowTheReceipts ($15/mo) quotes per stall or per linear foot with ADA stalls, stencils, and mobilization as separate lines, then invoices the property manager on net terms and chases the balance automatically.
How we picked
Entry-plan prices as published in 2026, checked against each vendor's own pricing page. Tools were judged on the solo striper's real workflow — per-stall and per-foot quoting with ADA and mobilization, and commercial net-terms invoicing — not on satellite measurement or multi-crew scheduling.

| QuoteIQ | $29.99/mo | Satellite lot measurement inside the quoting flow |

The solo striper’s real workflow
Striping is commercial work paid on commercial terms. The job takes a day, but the payment lands 30 to 60 days out, from a property manager who has never once paid early without a nudge.

Frequently asked questions
What does a solo line striper need from software?
Per-stall and per-linear-foot quoting with ADA stalls and stencils priced separately, a mobilization fee on every job, and commercial invoicing on net terms with automatic follow-up. Property managers pay slowly by default — the follow-up is the feature.
What do I get with ShowTheReceipts for $15/month?
Quoting, invoicing, card payment, and one tax-ready ledger. Automated payment reminders and recurring invoicing — which is what makes net-30 commercial work manageable — are Pro-plan features at $39/month.
Should mobilization be a separate line?
Yes. Loading the striper, hauling it, and setting up costs $150–$350 before you paint a single line. Burying it in the per-stall rate makes small lots unprofitable and makes big lots look overpriced.
