Hey, Hunters
We are a Dessert Pay, replacing Hardware POS-terminals for Card payment acceptance with just a Smartphone App (It's like Square but no dongles required).
https://www.dessert-pay.com/prod...
We've made Stripe integration to Accept all card types (app is live and available in Google market) and also working on PCI certification to support in-person transactions with lower fees for Visa and MasterCard.
Besides just transactions, we want to make our solution the most convenient for small businesses and help to solve their pains.
It could be some personal services, small sales, couriers, occasional or seasonal businesses — persons required to accept payments at any moment or companies needed to start acceptance right now.
We're already implementing some ideas but aimed to make a merchant's life easier, not just provide tons of functions. So we'll do appreciate your feedback and suggestions: market segments, their biggest pains, something they or YOU need the most but can't get for today.
For today we are already preparing:
- Referral program. We’ll share our transaction commission with any person, who bring us merchants by suggestion. That’s’ really cool!
- Anti-fraud and anti-chargeback capabilities promoting merchant funding.
- Open API to make Dessert Pay an integrated function for any business application.
Let us know your contacts, and we'll be happy to listen to your ideas. Sure you can help to make the world better :)
I would also very much appreciate if you could help us getting attention to this project and repost, to get merchants to know of this opportunity.
Cheers, Mikhail 😊
@mikhail_gorin Wow, this seems pretty revolutionary, if executed right can help the unbanked population around the world, if partnered with cost effective wallet provider! Kudos to the team!
@porush_puri Thanks Porush! We are open to collaboration with business-apps, banks, and service providers. Will be happy to get emails on mike@dessert-pay.com
Nice intro video. Was talking to a payments startup recently that were endeavouring to solve similar pains for small businesses in the UK. Is your plan to monetise on the data side?
And last week, was reading about The Cafe Grind (a coffee shop in New York). They use their point-of-sale system to keep tabs on customer visits and how long it takes to serve people, and in turn to monitor what's selling. Apparently, it saves them 5-10 hours per week in managing logistics (and I guess it helps with managing inventory too).
@lynnastyie We have two options to monetize, it could be a small monthly fee or something like 0,2% on top of the transaction. But our aim to bring much more value to merchants, not just process the transaction and take a fee :)
@mikhail_gorin I think you might have a lot more :) But depends whether you want to capture value merchant side or through other means. Most of the payments startups I see are either doing/planning to do one or the other or both—and then some haven't decided yet. Giving it away for free (indefinitely) is great for distribution (assumes the product value is there), but it implies the data will be commercialised. Seems to a lot of clamour about big data out of small firms, curious to see where that trend ends up.
"bring[ing] much more value to merchants, not just process and take a fee" always sounds good!
Congrats on the launch.
@travis_bellington Absolutely agree with you! I think this is a natural way, as it happened with Photo cameras and MP3.
And it opens a lot of new opportunities around the payment function.
That's why we are working on finding new values and new ways to use.
Check some in the description, and you are more than welcome to propose something in addition!
