Cashews, groundnuts and other nuts are grown by millions of small farmers, and much of the crop passes through small local processors. They buy raw nuts in the buying season, shell, dry, roast and pack them, and sell to shops, supermarkets, markets and wholesale buyers, sometimes far away. Farmers and traders usually want cash on the spot, workers are often paid daily or by the kilo, and buyers pay later. A payments app that pays suppliers and workers by phone, sends payment links for orders and takes payments from shops can win these processors, and every farmer, worker and buyer they deal with sees your app.

Pay suppliers and workers by phone
Letting processors pay farmers when nuts are weighed and pay workers by the day or by the kilo means less cash kept on site and a clear record of every payment.

Get paid for orders
Sending a payment link with each order, or letting shops pay by phone on delivery, helps processors get paid faster and chase fewer late payers.
Grow through farmers and buyers
Each processor buys from many farmers and sells to many shops. When they all pay and get paid through your app, one processor brings a whole supply chain onto it.
