Lift maintenance engineers service and repair passenger and goods lifts in blocks of flats, offices, shops, hotels and care homes. Most customers pay for a maintenance contract with regular visits, and pay extra for call-outs when a lift breaks down and for larger repairs. A payments app that handles contract payments, call-outs and repair invoices can win lift engineers, and every building owner and managing agent that pays them sees your app.

Get paid for call-outs and repairs
A link sent with the call-out report or repair quote lets the customer pay straight away, without the engineer chasing an invoice.
Grow through building managers
Lift engineers work for the same building owners and managing agents that pay fire risk assessors, cleaners and other trades. When those businesses take payments through your app, each engineer can bring more of them onto it.
