Mobility shops sell and hire mobility scooters, wheelchairs, riser recliner chairs, stairlifts and small daily living aids. Many customers are older people, and sons, daughters or carers often pay on their behalf from somewhere else. Bigger items need a deposit, hire is paid weekly or for a holiday, and servicing and repairs are paid on collection. A payments app that sends a payment link a family member can pay from anywhere, takes deposits and handles hire payments can win these shops, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Let families pay from anywhere
A payment link can be sent to a son, daughter or carer, so they can pay for a scooter or chair without coming to the shop.
