How to grow your payments app with mural painters and street artists

- 3See every payment as it happens
Mural painters and commissioned street artists design and paint walls for cafés, restaurants, shops, gyms, schools, offices and homes, and some also take part in paid festivals and council projects. A commission usually starts with a design fee or deposit, which pays for sketches and paint, and the balance is due when the wall is finished. Bigger walls are often paid in stages. A payments app that sends links for deposits and stages, shows what each client has paid and keeps a clear record can win artists, and every business that pays them sees your app.

Send deposit and balance links
A payment link for the deposit and another when the wall is done means clients can pay from their phone on the spot, and the artist can buy paint and start sooner.

Make stage payments clear on big walls
For large walls, a link for each stage, such as design, halfway and finish, keeps the money flowing and gives both sides a clear record of what has been paid.
Grow through the businesses they paint for
Mural artists work for cafés, shops, decorators and galleries. When those businesses take payments through your app, each artist can bring more of them onto it.
