How to grow your payments app with kitchen extract cleaners
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Kitchen extract cleaners clean the canopies, filters, fans and ducts above cooking areas in restaurants, takeaways, pubs and canteens. Grease builds up quickly, so busy kitchens book cleans every few months, often at night when the kitchen is closed. A payments app that handles one-off cleans, regular visits and invoices can win kitchen extract cleaners, and every food business that pays them sees your app.
Talk to kitchen extract cleaners
Ask local kitchen extract cleaners:
- How often do your customers book a clean?
- Do they pay on the night or by invoice?
- How do pub and restaurant groups pay you?
- How long do invoices take to be paid?
Get paid when the clean is done
A link sent with the cleaning report lets the kitchen owner pay straight away, without the cleaner chasing an invoice.
Make regular cleans easy to pay for
Kitchens that book a clean every few months can pay each visit by link, or on a regular plan, so the cleaner knows every visit is paid.
Grow through food businesses
Kitchen extract cleaners work for restaurants, takeaways and cafes that take payments from their own customers every day. When those businesses take payments through your app, each cleaner can bring more of them onto it.
