How to grow your payments app with pool and hot tub engineers
By SendPay Business · · 2 min read
Pool and hot tub engineers clean, service and repair pools and hot tubs at homes, holiday parks and hotels. Some customers book one-off repairs, while others pay for regular visits through the season. A payments app that takes payment at the end of a visit and handles regular payments can win these engineers, and every customer who pays sees your app.
Talk to engineers
Ask local pool and hot tub engineers:
- How do customers pay you today?
- How do you charge for regular service visits?
- How do you take deposits for parts and repairs?
- What would make getting paid easier?
Get paid after each visit
A link sent when the visit is done means payment before the engineer drives to the next job.
Take deposits for parts
A payment link sent with the quote lets the customer pay for parts straight away, so the repair is not delayed.
Grow through holiday parks
Holiday parks, hotels and holiday let owners often have several hot tubs to keep running. One engineer on your app can bring many of them to it.
