How to grow your payments app with copywriters and freelance writers

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your card, ready to use
  1. Your card appears in your app
  2. Tap it to pay in a shop
  3. See every payment as it happens

Copywriters and freelance writers write website pages, blog posts, product descriptions, adverts, newsletters and reports for businesses of every size, and many work for clients in other cities or countries. Some charge per project with a deposit up front, some by the word and some on a monthly retainer for regular content. Waiting 30 days or more for an invoice to be paid is common. A payments app that sends a deposit link with the quote, an invoice with a pay button and a regular monthly charge can win these writers, and every client who pays sees your app.

Take a deposit with the quote

A deposit link sent with the quote means the writer starts work knowing the client is committed.

Get invoices paid sooner

An invoice with a pay button lets a client pay by card or bank transfer the moment they approve the work, instead of adding it to a payment run weeks later.

Grow through the businesses they write for

Writers work alongside web designers, marketers and small business owners who also need to get paid. One writer on your app can introduce many of them.
