How to grow your payments app with bird control specialists
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Bird control specialists keep pigeons, gulls and other birds off roofs, shop fronts, warehouses, loading bays and solar panels. They fit netting, spikes and wires, clear nests and droppings, and often come back to check or repair what they fitted. A payments app that handles deposits, one-off jobs and follow-up visits can win bird control specialists, and every homeowner and business that pays them sees your app.
Talk to bird control specialists
Ask local bird control specialists:
- Do you take a deposit before a big job?
- How do homeowners pay for smaller jobs like solar panel proofing?
- Do customers pay for follow-up visits?
- How long do invoices take to be paid?
Take a deposit before the job
A link sent with the quote lets the customer pay a deposit straight away, so the specialist can order netting and hire access equipment.
Get paid on the day
Homeowners can pay by card or link when the job is done, so the specialist isn't chasing small invoices after they leave.
Grow through property trades
Bird control specialists work alongside pest control firms, roofers and solar installers. When those businesses take payments through your app, each specialist can bring more of them onto it.
