How to grow your payments app with farriers
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Farriers drive between yards, shoeing and trimming horses for the same owners every few weeks. Owners are often not at the yard when the work is done, so farriers end up chasing payment later. A payments app that sends a link as soon as a horse is done, and lets regular owners pay the same way each visit, can win these farriers, and every owner who pays sees your app.
Talk to farriers
Ask local farriers:
- How do owners pay you today?
- How often do you chase late payments?
- Are owners usually at the yard when you work?
- How many yards do you visit in a week?
Send a link when the work is done
A payment link sent straight after a visit lets owners pay from wherever they are, without the farrier waiting for cash or a transfer.
Make regular visits simple
Most horses need a farrier every few weeks. The same simple link each visit keeps regular owners paying on time.
Grow through the yards
Farriers visit many yards and meet owners, instructors and vets at each one. One farrier on your app can bring it to the whole yard.
