Text to Pay

For pool & spa service: Send a payment request for lawn services, landscape projects and maintenance charges by text so customers can pay against a specific order or invoice. Text a repair estimate link for approval from poolside. Text-to-pay sends a secure payment link by SMS so the customer pays from their phone instead of reading a card number over the phone.
  • Set up message templates and consent
  • Connect links to your invoices or pool route software
  • Report on paid and unpaid requests

Recurring Billing

For pool & spa service: Schedule and manage payments for lawn-maintenance plans and recurring garden visits, including renewals and customer account balances. Plans and memberships give pool service companies predictable revenue, and autopay stops the chasing.

Merchant Account

For pool & spa service: Arrange a processing account for lawn services, landscape projects and maintenance charges, with checkout methods matched to how customers pay.

A dedicated merchant account gives you custom pricing and processing limits set during underwriting. Roots uses it when Square isn't the right fit.
