How to grow your payments app with electricians

Electricians fix faults, fit sockets and lighting, carry out safety checks for landlords, rewire homes and fit electric car chargers. Small jobs are best paid on the spot, rewires and larger fittings need a deposit for materials, and safety checks come round again for landlords. A payments app that sends a payment link when the job is done, takes deposits and stage payments and reminds landlords when a check is due can win these trades, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Get paid when the job is done
A payment link sent as the job finishes lets the customer pay there and then, so the electrician is not chasing invoices.

Take deposits and stage payments
A deposit link for a rewire or a car charger covers materials, and stage payments spread a long job into parts.
Grow through the trade
Electricians work alongside plumbers, builders and solar installers and buy from the same merchants. One electrician on your app can introduce the others.
