How to grow your payments app with sign makers

- 2Tap it to pay in a shop
- 3See every payment as it happens
Sign makers design and fit shop signs, vehicle graphics, banners, window lettering and boards for small businesses, events and builders. Materials and printing come before fitting, so most ask for a deposit when the design is signed off and the rest when the sign goes up. A payments app that takes the deposit with the proof and the balance on fitting day can win these sign makers, and every business that pays sees your app.
