Small security firms supply guards for shops, offices and building sites, and door staff and stewards for pubs, clubs, weddings, festivals and sports events. They usually bill by the hour, often weekly, while paying their own staff every week, so late payments hurt. One-off events often need a deposit to secure the booking. A payments app that takes event deposits by link, sends weekly invoices with a payment button and gives clients a clear record can win security firms, and every venue and event organiser that pays them sees your app.

Invoice regular clients every week
A weekly invoice with the hours worked and a payment button helps firms get paid in time to pay their own staff.
Grow through venues and events
Security firms work next to caterers, marquee hire firms and cleaners at every venue and event. When those businesses pay and get paid through your app, one firm can bring many more onto it.
