How to grow your payments app with home bakers and cake makers
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
- 1Your card appears in your app
- 2Tap it to pay in a shop
- 3See every payment as it happens
Home bakers and cake makers often take orders through Instagram, Facebook or WhatsApp. A big celebration cake can take hours and cost a lot in ingredients, so a customer who cancels or never pays really hurts. A payment link for a deposit when the order is placed can protect the baker and make ordering easy.

Take a deposit with every order
A payment link sent in the same chat as the order confirms it and covers the ingredients. The baker only starts once the deposit is in.
