How to grow your payments app with motorcycle and scooter shops

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

A shop that takes payments
  1. Customers pick what they want
  2. They pay by card at checkout
  3. The order lands with you

Motorcycle and scooter shops sell new and used bikes, parts, helmets and riding gear, and service and repair bikes for commuters, delivery riders and enthusiasts. Buyers put down a deposit to hold a bike, repairs are paid when the rider collects, and delivery riders need their bike back on the road fast. A payments app that sends a deposit link, sends the repair bill as a link when the job is done and takes tap payments at the counter can win these shops, and every rider who pays sees your app.

Hold bikes with a deposit

A deposit paid by link secures a bike while the buyer arranges the rest, so the shop isn't holding it for someone who never comes back.

Get riders back on the road

Sending the repair bill as a link when the job is done means the rider can pay before arriving and collect straight away.

Grow through riders

Riders talk to each other, and delivery riders pass on shops they trust. One shop on your app can bring you riders and other shops.
