How to grow your payments app with antique and vintage dealers

- 3See every payment as it happens
Antique and vintage dealers sell furniture, clocks, ceramics, lighting and clothing from shops, antique centres, fairs and online. Most pieces are one of a kind, so buyers often ask the dealer to hold an item while they arrange collection or delivery, and many buy from photos without visiting. A payments app that takes a deposit to reserve a piece, sends a link for remote sales and takes quick payments at a fair can win these dealers, and every buyer who pays sees your app.
