Overview

iWallet is a payments platform for contractors and in-home service teams, built to issue invoices, accept cards and tap-to-pay, and speed payouts from the job site. The product serves small and mid-sized operators that live on cash flow. 

The goal was to grow and scale the active contractor base, lower acquisition cost across marketing channels and expand outside local, core markets.

Challenges Before
Working with Jives

  • Paid campaigns were generating awareness but not translating into qualified contractor sign-ups.
  • Creative and messaging lacked alignment with the needs of contractors—speed, security, and simplicity of payments.
  • CAC was higher than target, limiting the ability to scale spend.
  • Growth was concentrated in a few key regions, leaving opportunity untapped in surrounding markets.
    No system in place to maximize event-based opportunities like home services expos and trade conferences.

Our Plan of Action

  • Rebuilt Meta campaigns with segmented targeting focused on contractors in home services verticals (plumbing, roofing, HVAC, landscaping).
  • Tested and iterated multiple creative angles, refining ad copy and visuals to highlight contractor pain points: faster payments, less paperwork, improved cash flow.
  • Applied campaign learnings to expand into new geographic markets surrounding existing high-performing regions.
  • Launched geofenced campaigns around major trade shows and industry events to capture decision-makers actively looking for contractor solutions.
  • Introduced audience retargeting and lookalike modeling from early adopters to strengthen CAC efficiency and improve conversion quality.
    Structured weekly testing cycles to optimize creative, messaging, and budget allocation across regions.
