Get paid on-the-go with Blackbell

Generate links to request payment from your customer for walking their dog. Your client will then be notified by email and can add their payment details and process their orders in less than 60 seconds

Get paid by quote. If a customer requests a particular service for their pooch, come back to them with a quote that they can easily accept or reject.

Set up recurring payments and subscriptions. The days of chasing down clients, taking cards over the phone, or re-entering the same info month after month are over. It’s billing made simple. If you have a recurring client who trusts in your dog walking services, simply set up a subscription.

We’ve also enabled a ‘Balance’ feature for you to track how much you have in your Blackbell account that you can withdraw with Transferwise or Stripe, and see in real time the money that will come into your account. You can even set a schedule for your pay-outs.

A successful business can’t always be reared alone

Get your team together - Choose what part of your business they can access, whether they are an admin, take care of billing, edit content, manage customer service or/and process orders. For example, if you want to involve your accountant, simply give him permission to access admin and billing features and he will receive all invoices by email, and if you want to simply add a dog walker, give them access to orders and customer service, easy.

Get your team members to receive notifications about particular actions – they will get alerts through email or push notification.

Chat easily with team members – we’ve created an interface for your team to share thoughts and notes and we’ve called it private team notes. There, you can chat about an existing booking and bring together a plan of action.
