Private bartender & SMS deposits focus

For private bartenders, each evening blocks a night and stock. With PayLinker, you send an SMS deposit link as soon as the client confirms the date: they pay from their phone, you secure the evening and reduce cancellations. For premium cocktail menus, made‑to‑measure creations and larger groups, you can offer instalment payments via Stripe. You receive the full amount immediately on the PayLinker side, while the client spreads the cost in several instalments, without adding manual admin for you. PayLinker works without a terminal: a smartphone is enough to create links for deposits, balances and options (extra hours, special bottles, rental of glassware). Each payment is time‑stamped and tied to an event, which simplifies accounting and communication with your clients. Your own terms for deposits, cancellations and changes remain the base: PayLinker handles notifications, payment collection and history so you always know which evenings are fully confirmed.
