Loft conversion specialists turn empty lofts into bedrooms, home offices and bathrooms, often adding dormer windows, stairs and insulation. A job usually runs for several weeks, so customers pay a deposit to book a start date and then stage payments as the work reaches agreed points, with the balance when it is signed off. These are large sums, and chasing each stage takes time away from the build. A payments app that sends clear stage payment links and shows what has been paid can win loft specialists, and every homeowner who pays them sees your app.

Send a link for each stage
A payment link for each agreed stage, such as the deposit, the roof structure and the finished room, lets the customer pay from their phone and gives both sides a clear record.

Get the balance paid on sign-off
A final payment link sent when the customer signs off the work means the specialist is paid on the day, not weeks later.
Grow through building trades
Loft specialists work alongside builders, electricians, plumbers and insulation installers on the same jobs. When those trades take payments through your app, each specialist can bring more of them onto it.
