- 3See every payment as it happens
Locksmiths are often called out in a hurry, when someone is locked out at night or after a break-in. The customer may have no cash on them, and the locksmith wants to be paid before leaving. A payments app that takes payment on the spot by link or QR code can win these locksmiths, and every customer who pays sees your app.
