How to grow your payments app with day spas

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

Day spas sell massages, facials, spa days and packages for couples and groups. Many bookings are made weeks ahead, and a large share are gifts, bought by a partner, a friend or a group for a birthday or hen party. A payments app that takes a deposit when a spa day is booked, sells gift vouchers by link and takes the balance on the day can win these spas, and every guest and gift buyer who pays sees your app.

Take deposits for spa days

A deposit link when a spa day or group booking is made holds the place and covers the spa if a guest cancels late.
