How to grow your payments app with welders and metal fabricators

Welders and metal fabricators make gates, railings, balustrades, staircases, brackets and trailers, and repair farm machinery, vehicles and equipment. Custom work means buying steel and materials first, so a deposit is needed before starting, and mobile welders are often called out for urgent repairs on farms, building sites and driveways. A payments app that sends a deposit link with the quote, takes the balance on collection or fitting and gets call-outs paid on the spot can win these businesses, and every customer who pays sees your app.

Take a deposit before buying steel
A payment link sent with the quote means the fabricator can buy steel and materials without paying for them out of their own pocket.
