For round management software
Every round is a recurring collection. Your platform can earn on every collection.
Synapto is the embedded payments partner for UK round management software. Window cleaning, grounds maintenance, pest control, domestic cleaning. Same customers, same frequency, money collected after every visit. Your software runs the schedule and the billing.
How the money moves
The round your software already plans, visit by visit. Each stop is a collection your round businesses make today, through a provider each one set up separately. We move visit and plan collections into your product: each round business is settled in full, and your margin is paid monthly.
You solved round billing. The payments still earn for someone else.
Round work has an awkward billing shape: small amounts, high frequency, varying by visit, and a customer base that will not tolerate friction. Getting recurring collection to work reliably alongside a route schedule is genuinely hard, and your software does it. You already handle the thing most billing tools get wrong, which is that a four-weekly round is thirteen visits a year and a monthly one is twelve, and treating the first as the second quietly costs a cleaner a full clean's revenue per customer per year.
The collection itself, though, runs on rails your customers connected themselves. You built the mechanism that makes recurring round payments work, and the margin on every one of them goes elsewhere.
The commercials
What round collections can earn your platform
Most of your round businesses already collect for visits and monthly plans, each through a provider the business set up on its own. We move them onto collections inside your product, in your name and in planned groups of rounds, and build the per-visit, Direct Debit and payout products that keep them there. Each round business is settled in full for every visit, and your margin follows monthly.
Frequency is the point. A round business bills the same customer weekly, fortnightly or monthly for as long as the round lasts, and your product triggers every one of those collections. A share of that volume is a revenue line that grows with your customers' round density rather than with your seat count.
- Your own subscription revenue on agreed terms
- A share of the collections your software already triggers
- Revenue that grows with round density, not just seat count
- Commercials in writing before you build anything
The weight
Failed collections, chased by us
When a collection bounces, someone has to notice and someone has to fix it. Today the round operator often notices first and rings you, because you are the software they log into. With us, failures are retried automatically and flagged with the reason, and the operator has a named person here to call about the money.
- Failed collections retried and flagged with the reason
- Operators get an account manager, not a ticket queue
- Boarding and verification handled by us
- Your support queue stays about routes and rounds
The rails
Direct Debit suits a round. Cards are the exception.
On small, frequent amounts the per-payment cost of a card is the thing that hurts, because it is charged on every visit rather than once a month. Card details are kept current automatically when a card is reissued, so the argument is cost and reliability, not stale details. Your product can collect rounds by Direct Debit on UK bank rails, following the visit schedule you already hold, with cards kept for one-off jobs and new customers paying on the doorstep.
- Direct Debit on UK rails for recurring rounds
- Collections on the round's real cycle, four-weekly or monthly
- Card and Tap to Pay for one-off jobs on site
- One settlement, one statement, one person to call

Questions
The mechanism working is exactly the point: the volume is already there and earning for someone else. Nothing about your scheduling or your customers' experience has to change, and existing operators can move when it suits them.
Yes, and variable amounts on a fixed schedule are worth walking through with your team so the mandate and the notice periods line up with how your product already calculates each visit. That is a conversation with an engineer here, not a support ticket.
Sole traders and very small operators are normal in round work. They are boarded as part of your base rather than assessed as standalone applicants, with checks at onboarding rather than the first time a round expands quickly.
