Marquee and event hire firms rent out tents, tables, chairs, lighting and heaters for weddings, parties, fairs and shows. Most bookings need a deposit to hold the date and the balance paid before the day, and some take a refundable damage deposit too. A payments app that sends deposit and balance links can win these firms, and every customer who pays sees your app.
