Will writers help people put their wishes in writing, often visiting them at home or meeting them online. Most charge a fixed fee for a single will or a pair of mirror wills for a couple, and many offer extras such as secure storage, lasting powers of attorney or yearly updates. Clients are often older and may want to pay by link rather than hand over card details on the phone. A payments app that handles fixed fees, deposits and yearly storage charges can win will writers, and every client who pays them sees your app.

Take a deposit before drafting
A link sent after the first meeting lets the client pay a deposit, so the will writer is paid for their time before drafting starts.

Collect yearly fees without chasing
For storage or update plans, a link sent each year lets the client pay in a few taps instead of the will writer posting invoices and waiting.
Grow through later-life professionals
Will writers work alongside solicitors, financial advisers and funeral directors who serve the same families. When those businesses take payments through your app, each will writer can bring more of them onto it.
