How to grow your payments app with sports coaches

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

Your card, ready to use
  1. Your card appears in your app
  2. Tap it to pay in a shop
  3. See every payment as it happens

Sports coaches run after-school clubs, weekend sessions and holiday camps in football, tennis, cricket, gymnastics and more. Most sell blocks of sessions to parents, and many still collect cash on the touchline. A payments app that sends a link to book a block or a camp, and lets parents pay from their phone, can win these coaches, and every parent who pays sees your app.

Stop chasing on the touchline

A reminder link sent before each new block means coaches spend their time coaching, not collecting money.
