Small warehouses and fulfilment centres hold stock for online shops, market sellers, importers and local brands, then pick, pack and send orders for them. They usually bill each month for pallet or shelf space plus a charge per order, and add one-off fees for receiving deliveries or returns. Many clients are small sellers who pay late or in pieces. A payments app that sends clear monthly invoices with a payment link, takes regular payments and collects one-off charges quickly can win warehouses, and every seller who stores stock with them sees your app.

Collect one-off charges fast
Payment links for extra jobs, such as unloading a container or handling returns, mean warehouses get paid without waiting for month end.
Grow through the sellers they serve
Every warehouse works with many small sellers, couriers and hauliers. When those sellers and suppliers pay and get paid through your app, one warehouse can bring dozens of businesses onto it.
