How to grow your payments app with veg box schemes and farm shops

By SendPay Business · · 2 min read

A shop that takes payments
  1. Customers pick what they want
  2. They pay by card at checkout
  3. The order lands with you

Veg box schemes, farm shops and small growers who sell direct often have loyal customers who buy every week. Collecting payment for each box, or chasing people who forgot to pay, takes time away from growing. Regular payments and simple order links can make selling direct much easier.

Make weekly boxes easy to pay

A regular payment set up once means the box is paid for every week without reminders. Let customers pause it when they go away.

Take orders and payment together
