Farm supply shops and agro-dealers sell the seed, fertiliser, animal feed, tools and sprays farmers need, often in small towns far from a bank. Sales rush at planting time, and many dealers let trusted farmers pay after harvest, which means a lot of chasing. Dealers also buy stock from wholesalers and distributors in bulk. A payments app that takes payment at the counter or by phone, sends links for orders and makes it easy for farmers to pay back what they owe can win these dealers, and every farmer who pays sees your app.

Take payment at the counter or by phone
Letting farmers pay by phone at the counter or before a delivery means less cash in the shop and fewer unpaid orders.

Make repayments easy
A payment link a farmer can use to pay back part of what they owe, whenever they have money, makes credit easier to track and collect.
Grow through farmers
One dealer serves hundreds of farmers in the area. When a dealer asks farmers to pay through your app, each of them sees it working.
