- 2Tap it to pay in a shop
- 3See every payment as it happens
Personal and private chefs cook dinners, parties and weekly meal prep in their clients' homes. They usually buy the ingredients themselves before the job, then wait to be paid afterwards. A payments app that takes a deposit when the booking is made and the rest on the night can win these chefs, and every client who pays sees your app.
