How to grow your payments app with personal stylists

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your card, ready to use
  1. Your card appears in your app
  2. Tap it to pay in a shop
  3. See every payment as it happens

Personal stylists and personal shoppers help clients choose clothes, sort out their wardrobes and shop for weddings, work and holidays, in person or online. Most sell sessions or packages, take a deposit to book and lose time when clients cancel. A payments app that takes the deposit when the session is booked and the rest on the day can win these stylists, and every client who pays sees your app.
