    Two Options, One Experience

    PayCamp Payments vs Your Own Stripe

    Same features either way — Pay Now buttons, QR codes, receipts, reconciliation. The only difference is who processes the card.

    Worth it for high-volume sites

    Lower per-transaction costs at scale. Full control over your payment experience and branding.

    Most sites start with PayCamp Payments and switch to their own Stripe when they're ready. No lock-in, ever.

    How It Works

    From Invoice to Bank Account

    Four steps. Fully automatic. No chasing, no card machines, no manual reconciliation.

    1

    Invoice Sent

    You create a booking, meter reading, or yard job. PayCamp generates a professional invoice and emails it with a Pay Now button.

    2

    Guest Clicks Pay Now

    The customer taps Pay Now and lands on a secure Stripe Checkout page. Card details never touch your site.

    3

    Payment Confirmed

    Stripe processes the card instantly. The customer gets an automatic receipt. You see "Paid" on your dashboard.

    4

    Funds Settled

    Money arrives in your bank automatically. PayCamp Payments: 7 days. Your own Stripe: 2 business days.

    Real Example

    A £200 pitch booking paid via PayCamp Payments costs £10.50 in processing fees (2.9% + 30p). With your own Stripe at standard UK rates (2.8% + 25p), the same payment costs £5.85 — and PayCamp charges nothing on top.

    Multiple Ways to Pay

    Four Ways to Get Paid

    Invoice Pay Now

    Self-Service Pay Point

    A branded portal where guests check their balance and pay 24/7. Print a QR poster.

    Quick Pay

    The Old Way vs The PayCamp Way

    The Problem

    The old way: bank transfers that take days. Chasing invoices with phone calls. Carrying a card machine around the site. Asking guests to "pay when you get to the office." Meanwhile, you're owed thousands with no easy way to collect.

    The Solution

    With PayCamp, every invoice has a "Pay Now" button. Guests tap it, enter their card, done. You get paid. Whether you use our built-in PayCamp Payments or your own Stripe account, the experience is the same — professional, instant, and automatic.

    What's Included

    Everything you need for online payments, built into one platform.

    QR Code Payments

    Generate QR codes for on-site payments. Guest scans with their phone, pays instantly. No card machine needed.

    Self-Service Pay Point

    A branded payment portal where guests can look up their balance and pay outstanding invoices 24/7. Reduces "when can I pay?" calls to zero.

    Automated Receipts

    Every successful payment triggers an automatic receipt email to the customer. Professional, instant, no manual work.
