How to grow your payments app with access control and door entry installers

- 2Tap it to pay in a shop
- 3See every payment as it happens
Access control and door entry installers fit intercoms, video door entry, and key fob and card entry systems for blocks of flats, offices, shops and gated homes. New systems usually start with a deposit, many buildings pay a yearly maintenance fee, and extra fobs and call-outs are charged as they come up. A payments app that handles deposits, maintenance fees and small add-on sales can win these installers, and every building that pays them sees your app.

Take a deposit when the job is booked
A link sent with the quote lets the customer pay a deposit straight away, so the installer can order panels, readers and locks.

Sell fobs and call-outs with a link
Residents and tenants can pay for a spare fob or card with a link, so the installer doesn't have to collect small amounts by hand.
Grow through building trades
Door entry installers work alongside managing agents, security installers and locksmiths. When those businesses take payments through your app, each installer can bring more of them onto it.
