How to grow your payments app with kombucha and craft soft drink makers

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

Small drinks makers brew kombucha, ginger beer, cordials and other craft soft drinks in small batches. They sell by the bottle at markets and events, run refill and subscription schemes, and supply cafés, delis and shops on trade terms. That means lots of small card and phone payments at the stall, plus invoices that shops pay late. A payments app that takes quick payments at markets, collects subscriptions and sends trade invoices with payment links can win makers, and every café and customer that pays them sees your app.

Make market sales quick

Letting customers pay by phone or card at the stall, with no minimum spend, keeps the queue moving and means fewer lost sales when people carry no cash.

Grow through cafés and markets

Drinks makers supply cafés, delis and farm shops and trade next to other producers at markets. When those businesses pay and get paid through your app, one maker can bring many more onto it.
