How to host an online launch for your money app

By SendPay Business ยท ยท 2 min read

Your own web address
  1. Search for the name you want
  2. Pick the one you like
  3. Your site goes live on it

You do not need a venue to launch. A short live session on a video call or social media lets your first customers meet the person behind the app, watch it work and ask questions before they sign up.

Pick a simple format

Thirty minutes is plenty: a quick hello, a live demo, then questions. Choose a time when your people are free, such as an evening or weekend.

Invite the right people

Start with people who already know you:

  • Everyone on your waitlist.
  • The community groups your customers belong to.
  • Friends and early testers who can bring others.

Try it

Type your business name and see your free website

Type a name and tap a colour. The website changes as you go.

Build my free website

Free to build, free to publish, free to keep.

Show, don't tell

Do a real sign-up and a real payment on screen. Seeing it work in minutes is more convincing than any slide.

Answer honestly

Be ready for questions about fees and who holds the money. Give straight answers, and say so if you don't know yet.

Follow up the same day

Send everyone the recording, the sign-up link and a thank-you note while the session is still fresh.
