How to grow your payments app with laundries and dry cleaners
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Laundries and dry cleaners take many small payments every day, some at drop-off, some at collection and some on delivery. Keeping track of who has paid can be a headache. A simple way to take payment and send a receipt can save them time every day.
Visit a few shops
Ask owners and staff:
- When do customers pay, at drop-off or at collection?
- What do you pay for your card machine?
- How do you take payment for collection and delivery orders?
- How often is an order left unpaid or never collected?
Make paying quick at the counter
A QR code or payment link at the counter lets customers pay in seconds, with a receipt that matches their ticket.
Help with delivery orders
Sending a payment link before delivery means the driver does not need to handle cash, and the shop knows the order is paid.
Grow through local businesses
Laundries often serve hotels, restaurants and offices nearby. One happy owner can introduce you to other local businesses.
