Tap to Pay vs. Payment Link: Whats the better way to collect?

To get paid faster and in the field, convenience mattersfor you and your customer. With 91心頭 Payments, weve built two secure ways to collect one-time payments like deposits and deductibles right from the job site: Tap to Pay and Payment Links.

Theyre both secure. Both are fast. But one might make more sense than the other, depending on the job. So which one should you useand when?

Heres the breakdown.

 

Use Tap to Pay when the homeowner is standing right in front of you

If youre face-to-face with the customer, this is the fastest, easiest and most convenient way to get paid (the fees are also lower too*).

The customer just taps their credit card on your phone, and thats itpayment done.

No chasing down checks. No awkward call the office moments. No more crossing your fingers hoping that youll get paid.

Good situations for Tap to Pay:
  • You've just finished inspecting the loss and want to collect a deposit before leaving drying equipment
  • Youre in a high-volume CAT event and want to secure the job with the property owner
  • Its after hours and the office is closed

People are used to tapping their card at the grocery store or gas station. Now they can do the same thing with you, on the job site.

Use a Payment Link when the customer isnt around

Sometimes the property owner is across the country or evacuated. Sometimes they need to get approvals from others.

In these cases, send them a secure payment link straight from the 91心頭 app (web or mobile). They get a link by text or email, click it, pay, and youre good to go.

Best for:
  • Jobs where the homeowner isnt on-site
  • When someone else is footing the bill (landlord, property manager, etc.)
  • When you need to follow up after a walkthrough

You dont have to be face-to-face. You dont even have to wait. Just send the link and move on.

So, what should you use?

Whatever gets the job done.

If youre with the homeowner, Tap to Pay is fast and easy.

If not, a payment link gives them a way to pay when it works for them.

Both are built into 91心頭, so you dont need any extra tools or apps. Your team already knows how to use the app. This just adds one more way to keep things moving and keep the cash flowing.
