How to grow your payments app with greengrocers and fruit shops

- 3The order lands with you
Greengrocers and fruit shops sell fresh produce over the counter all day, often in small amounts, and many also supply cafés, restaurants and offices with regular orders and fruit baskets. Counter sales need to be quick, trade customers need a simple way to pay each week and delivery orders need paying before they go out. A payments app that takes fast counter payments and sends payment links for trade and delivery orders can win these shops, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Make small counter sales quick
A lot of greengrocer sales are only a few pounds, so a fast tap to pay with clear, low fees keeps the queue moving.

Get trade orders paid on time
A payment link sent with each weekly trade order or invoice means cafés and offices can pay in a tap, and the shop spends less time chasing.
Grow through local food shops
Greengrocers sit alongside butchers, bakers and delis on the same high street and at the same markets. One shop on your app can introduce the others.
