Thanks for your interest in Scout! We're really excited to have you take it for a test drive. We want to make things as easy as possible to get you up and running, so you can see what Scout has to offer.

Support

No B.S., we're here to help in any way we can, if you have any questions, don't hesitate to let us know. In our never ending quest to improve Scout, we rely on your feedback. Make sure you let us know if there is something you can't find or a feature you're looking for. All you have to do is use the little chat button on the bottom right and we will get back to you, typically within a few min, unless we're sleeping.

Commitment Free

A number of companies wanted to give Scout a try before giving us payment information and setting up a merchant account. We completely understand, so we re-worked the setup and you can try Scout with no customer fees for 15 days. After that time, you will be required to enter a payment method and we'll begin charing the $0.40 per appointment technology fee.

If you wish to begin billing your customers, you will need to set up an account with Braintree Merchant Processor, a PayPal company. Just click the link in the header when signed into Scout.
