Ever had a scenario where a client is ready to pay you, but you have no immediate way of taking the money?
For any business without a card payment machine, this can be tricky.
Having a payment form on your website solves this. You can either give the customer the link to pay, with a box for reference/invoice number and field where they can enter the amount to pay, or you can walk them through it in person in real time so that they can pay you.
This is ideal for trade clients, or anyone who needs to take payment on-site when completing a job.
But what about card fees?
Stripe is our go-to partner for website payment forms. Their standard fees are 1.5% of the transaction plus 20p, which is a small price to pay to get your money instantly and smooth out your cashflow. Understanding fees and how best to manage them is part of the onboarding journey.
