For Drivers — SGNLS

How It Works

Drop a Signal

Open the app and tap the type of help you need — battery, fuel, tire, lockout, or ride. Your location is shared automatically.

Technicians Are Alerted

Nearby independent technicians with the right capabilities receive a push notification. Your signal expands every 3 minutes if no one accepts.

Tech Accepts — You're On

The first tech to accept owns the job. You see their info. They're on their way. Live status updates hit your Lock Screen instantly.

Job Done. Pay Up.

Rates are disclosed upfront. You pay the technician directly for their service. SGNLS collects a 13% platform fee. You rate the experience.

Signal Types

Battery Jump

Dead battery or no-start. Tech brings a portable jumpbox or cables.

Fuel Delivery

Ran dry? Tech delivers fuel at per-gallon cost plus a delivery fee.

Tire Change

Flat or blowout. Tech changes to your spare. Rates set by technician.

Lockout

Keys locked in vehicle. Specify your key type — slim jim, Slim Jim Pro, or fob.

Common Questions

Is SGNLS guaranteed to find a tech?

No. SGNLS is a technology platform that connects you with available independent technicians. Response times depend on tech availability in your area. Your signal expands radius automatically every 3 minutes, but if no tech is available, the signal will time out. SGNLS is not responsible for unavailability.

What if I need to be towed?

SGNLS has a Tow Partner program. If the situation requires a tow, your technician can escalate to a tow partner directly from the app. Tow services are coordinated through partner companies at negotiated rates — not free for members.

Are SGNLS techs employees?

No. SGNLS technicians are independent contractors, not employees of B.A.S.S. or SGNLS. SGNLS is a technology marketplace. We are not liable for the quality, safety, timing, or outcome of services provided by independent techs.

What does the platform fee go toward?

The 13% platform fee covers SGNLS operating costs: infrastructure, Firebase backend, Stripe payment processing, app maintenance, customer support, and platform development. It is deducted from the technician's payout, not added to your invoice.

How do I cancel my membership?
