Questions

Florists, answered.

Can I take payment over the phone?

Yes, via a payment link the customer taps — safer than reading a card number aloud, and it usually processes better than a keyed-in transaction too.

Can I handle wedding deposits?

Yes. Deposits and staged payments mean you’re not fronting the cost of an event months in advance.
