Skip hire firms drop off skips for house clear-outs, building work and garden jobs, then collect them when full. Most customers book by phone and pay up front, and many firms still take card details over the phone. A payments app that sends a secure payment link when a skip is booked can win these firms, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Charge extras by link
Extra days or overfilled skips can be charged with a new link, so the driver does not have to collect money.
Grow through builders
Builders and house clearance firms book skips again and again. One skip firm on your app puts it in front of all of them.
