Swapfiets is particularly popular in college towns. How do they ensure that payments are made on time?

Swapfiets collecting payments

Swapfiets subscription

“We regard our product as a serivce”, says Matthias Moll. Based on this and their target group (students), Swapfiets defined their payment strategy.

 

Matthias: “No one likes to receive payment reminders. It feels like you’ve done something wrong and the language use can be quite intimidating. That’s why we try to make the tone of voice in our emails as pleasant as can be. With this specific goal in mind, the entire email is designed to obtain the final payment.”

A unique payment request

“We designed the payment requests ourselves. Marketeers can do so very easily via html and css. We have opted for a clear blue background, because it’s simple and without distraction. The tone of voice is completely tailored to the language use of students, and we even use emojis in our payment requests.”

“Everything we do has to be amazing yet most of all easy. We always think about potential disadvantages, so we can offer our customers nothing but advantages. Buckaroo’s credit management solution fits right in.”
