- 3The order lands with you
School uniform shops do much of their trade in a few busy weeks before the school year starts. Queues are long, parents often order in advance, and some pay in parts. A payments app that takes orders by payment link and payments at the counter by QR code can win these shops, and every parent who pays sees your app.

Take orders before the rush
A payment link for each order lets parents pay in advance and collect later, which spreads the work and shortens queues.
