How to grow your payments app with balloon and party decorators

- 3See every payment as it happens
Balloon artists and party decorators build arches, garlands, backdrops and table displays for birthdays, baby showers, weddings, proms and shop openings. Most bookings come through social media messages, and decorators need a deposit before they buy balloons and hire props, then the balance before or on the day. A payments app that sends a deposit link with the quote and a final payment link before set-up can win these decorators, and every client who pays sees your app.

Send a deposit link with every quote
A payment link sent in the same message as the quote lets the client secure the date in a tap, before the decorator buys any stock.

Get the balance before set-up
A final payment link sent a few days before the event means the decorator isn't chasing money at a party.
Grow through parties and weddings
Decorators work alongside party entertainers, cake makers, venues and wedding suppliers. One decorator on your app can introduce the others.
