The Professional Touch

Your customer pays via Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Card. They get a branded receipt; you get a new contact in your business list.

Why Proper?

Because "Splitting a Pizza" isn't a Business Model.

The Old Way

Venmo/Cash

  • Awkward "Social" Payments Asking a client to find your @username feels like a hobby, not a job.
  • The "Tax Nightmare" Personal and business money mixed in one messy feed.
  • Zero Follow-Up You get the money, but you lose the customer data.
  • Manual Reminders Chasing students for "that lesson from last Tuesday."
The Proper Way

Proper

  • Professional QR Checkout Show your phone, get paid. No social media fluff, just business.
  • Clean Records Every transaction is a business record, ready for tax season.
  • Automatic Growth Capture emails and send professional receipts with every tap.
  • On-the-Spot Finality Settle up before you even leave the court.

Pricing that scales with you.

Questions?

The stuff people actually want to know before signing up.

Is this secure?

We never see or store your bank details. All payments and personal data are handled by Stripe, the same company that powers Amazon and Shopify.

How do I get my money?

Your funds are deposited directly into your bank account via your Stripe dashboard. No waiting for "transfers" from a social app.

Does my customer need an app?

No. They just scan the QR code and pay via Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Card right in their phone's browser. It takes them less than 10 seconds.

Why the 1% fee?

That 1% allows us to keep the lights on without charging you $30/month or selling your data. We only make money when you're out there getting paid.

Can I use this for my taxes?

Yes. Unlike Venmo, Proper keeps your business and personal life separate. You can export your transaction history and email list anytime with one click.

Start accepting payments in seconds.

No monthly fees. Standard Stripe rates + 1%. Setup takes less than 2 minutes.
