How to grow your payments app with juice bars and bubble tea shops

- 3The order lands with you
Juice bars and bubble tea shops sell a steady stream of small drinks, often to students and young workers who pay with their phone and never carry cash. Many run loyalty cards, take orders ahead for collection and sell through delivery apps. Every sale needs to be quick, repeat visits need rewarding and order-ahead needs paying before the drink is made. A payments app that does all of this with low fees on small payments can win these shops, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Keep fees low on small payments
When most drinks cost a few pounds, fees eat into every sale. Clear, low fees on small payments are a strong reason for a shop to switch.

Take order-ahead payments by link
A payment link or QR code lets regulars order and pay ahead, so their drink is ready when they arrive and the queue moves faster.
Grow through food and drink
Juice bars and bubble tea shops sit alongside cafés, bakeries and takeaways, often on the same street. One shop on your app can introduce the others.
