In many countries, people collect plastic, metal and paper and sell it by the kilo to buying centres. They are usually paid in cash, with no record of what they earned, which makes it hard to save or borrow. Paying them by phone can make their money safer and give them a record that counts.

Make paying by the kilo simple
Let the buying centre weigh the load and pay straight to the collector's phone in a few taps, with a record for both sides.

Help collectors save
A record of steady earnings and an easy way to put a little aside can help collectors plan for school fees, rent and bad weeks.
Grow through the buying centres
Each buying centre pays many collectors. One centre that switches to your app can bring every collector who sells to it.
