Deposits that secure the date
A deposit link sent with the booking confirmation means the date is only held once it is paid. That protects the creative from no-shows.

Design and preview your whole platform free, then launch when you are ready.
Get paid on delivery
Sending a payment link with the finished photos or files, or before the final files are released, makes the last payment quick and clear.
Grow through their network
Creatives work with wedding planners, venues, agencies and each other. One who is happy with your app is likely to mention it to others they work with.
