How to grow your payments app with henna artists

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your card, ready to use
  1. Your card appears in your app
  2. Tap it to pay in a shop
  3. See every payment as it happens

Henna artists apply bridal henna, party designs and quick designs at markets and festivals. Bridal bookings are made months ahead with a deposit, busy seasons like Eid, Diwali and wedding season fill up fast, and group bookings for a bride's family are often paid by several people. A payments app that sends a deposit link, lets guests pay their share and takes tap payments at a stall can win these artists, and every client who pays sees your app.

Hold busy dates with a deposit

A deposit paid by link secures a bridal date in wedding season, so the artist isn't left with an empty day when plans change.

Let groups pay their share

When a bride's family and friends all have henna, each guest can pay for their own design by link instead of one person collecting cash.

Grow through weddings and celebrations

Henna artists work alongside makeup artists, wedding planners and caterers. One artist on your app can introduce the others.
