Sound & lighting hire & SMS deposits focus
For sound and lighting hire, each rental date ties up equipment that cannot be booked by someone else. With PayLinker, you send an SMS deposit link when the package and dates are agreed: the client pays from their phone, the rental is secured and you reduce last‑minute cancellations. You can then bill balances and options (extra lights, additional speakers, extended rental periods) via new links, with an automatic PDF receipt for each payment. Each link is time‑stamped and tied to an event, which makes your accounting, logistics and after‑sales clearer. PayLinker works without a terminal: a smartphone or laptop is enough to create links from your office or warehouse. Your own rental conditions remain the base: PayLinker handles notifications, collection and history so you always know which rentals are fully paid.
