Driveway and paving installers lay block paving, resin-bound and tarmac driveways, patios and paths for homes and small businesses. Most jobs take a few days, with a deposit to book the date and cover materials and the balance when the work is finished. Customers want a clear record of what they have paid, and installers want to leave the job with the money in hand rather than chasing it later. A payments app that handles deposits and on-the-spot final payments can win driveway installers, and every customer who pays them sees your app.

Take the deposit when the quote is accepted
A deposit link sent with the accepted quote books the date and covers materials, and gives the customer a clear record of what they have paid.

Get paid before leaving the job
A final payment link or QR code shown on the last day lets the customer pay while the installer is still there, so there is nothing left to chase.
Grow through outdoor trades
Driveway installers work alongside landscapers, fencers, builders and driveway cleaners serving the same homes. When those businesses take payments through your app, each installer can bring more of them onto it.
