How to grow your payments app with equine physiotherapists
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Equine physiotherapists and horse massage therapists visit yards to treat horses for stiffness, injury and recovery, often working alongside vets, farriers and saddle fitters. Many treat the same horses every few weeks, and a single yard visit can cover several horses belonging to different owners. The therapist is often paid by bank transfer or cash after the visit, and then has to chase whoever was not at the yard that day. A payments app that sends each owner a link or takes payment on the spot can win equine therapists, and every owner who pays them sees your app.
Talk to equine therapists
Ask local equine physiotherapists and massage therapists:
- How do owners pay after each treatment?
- How do you handle yard visits with horses from several owners?
- Do owners ever buy a block of treatments?
- How often do you chase unpaid visits?
Send each owner their own link
After a yard visit, the therapist sends each owner a payment link for their own horse, so nobody has to be at the yard to pay.
Sell blocks of treatments
A link for a block of treatments lets owners pay up front for regular care, and gives the therapist steady income between visits.
Grow through horse businesses
Equine therapists work alongside farriers, riding stables, livery yards and saddle fitters serving the same owners. When those businesses take payments through your app, each therapist can bring more of them onto it.
