How to grow your payments app with recruitment and staffing agencies

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

Small recruitment and staffing agencies find staff for shops, warehouses, care homes, restaurants, offices and building sites. Some charge a one-off fee when a permanent hire starts, while others supply temporary workers and bill clients each week for the hours worked. Agencies usually pay their temps before their own clients pay them, so slow payments squeeze them hard. A payments app that sends placement fees and weekly timesheet invoices with a pay-now link can win these agencies, and every client who pays sees your app.
