- 3The order lands with you
Florists and gift shops take orders over the counter, by phone and on social media, and many of them come in a rush before holidays and special days. Taking payment for an order that is not collected in person can be awkward. A simple payment link can make every order easy to pay.

Make phone and online orders easy to pay
A payment link sent by message lets the customer pay before the order is made. The shop gets paid up front and does not have to chase anyone.

Be ready for the busy days
Holidays and special days bring a rush of orders. Make sure payments stay fast and receipts go out straight away when the shop is at its busiest.
Grow through local shops
Small shop owners often know each other on the same street or in local business groups. One happy florist can introduce you to the next.
