How to Take Payments as a Smart Option for Jim’s Mowing Franchisee; Fast, Easy, and No Extra Hardware Needed

As a Jim’s Mowing franchisee, providing excellent lawn care is just part of the job. Taking payments quickly and securely is equally important for keeping your business running smoothly.

If you’re wondering how to take payments on the go without the hassle of bulky EFTPOS machines or chasing late invoices, here’s a straightforward solution for you. 

The Traditional Way: What Are Your Options?

Feature Nexxtap Invoices After Job Cash Payments Dedicated Terminals/Dongles
Speed of Payment Instant, on-site Delayed (days or weeks) Instant if customer has cash Instant when connected and working
Hardware Required None – works on your phone None  Float for change Terminal or dongle (carry, charge, maintain)
Cash Flow Impact Immediate cash flow Slower cash flow, risk of late payments Immediate if cash on hand Immediate if working
Admin Time Minimal – payment processed instantly High – chasing and reconciling invoices Low, but requires manual cash handling Medium – setup, maintenance, troubleshooting
Reliability Works anywhere with mobile data Dependent on customer paying later Dependent on customer having cash Can drop out, lose connection, or run out of battery
Customer Convenience Pay instantly with any major card Delayed, less convenient Limited to cash on hand Good if device is available and working

This layout keeps Nexxtap in the lead position and makes the benefits easy to spot.

I can also make you a green vs grey colour-coded version for the blog so Nexxtap’s column stands out visually against the “other” options. That would make it much more skimmable for franchisees.
