- 3See every payment as it happens
Self-employed home carers and companions help older and disabled people at home with meals, shopping, company and everyday tasks. They are often paid weekly, and the person paying is usually a son or daughter who lives in another town or country. A payments app that sends the family a weekly link, or takes a regular payment, can win these carers, and every family that pays sees your app.

Set up regular payments
A regular payment for a set number of visits gives carers steady income and families one less thing to remember.
Grow through families and carers
Carers often know other carers, and families talk to other families. One carer on your app can bring others to it.
