How to grow your payments app with smart home installers

- 3See every payment as it happens
Smart home installers set up connected lighting, heating controls, video doorbells, speakers, TVs and Wi-Fi so everything works together. Bigger jobs often need kit bought before the installer arrives, so many ask for a deposit, then take the rest when the system is working. Some also offer monthly support plans to keep things updated. A payments app that handles deposits, final payments and monthly plans can win smart home installers, and every household that pays them sees your app.

Cover kit costs with a deposit
A link sent with the quote lets the customer pay a deposit before the kit is ordered, so the installer is not out of pocket if plans change.

Get paid when the system works
A link for the balance at the end of the visit means the customer pays on the spot, once they have seen everything working.
Grow through home tech businesses
Smart home installers work alongside electricians, security installers and TV aerial fitters. When those businesses take payments through your app, each installer can bring more of them onto it.
