You know what Gingr Payments does: It processes payments, right? Swipe, tap, done.
But what if we told you there’s a whole layer of magic sitting under the hood? Features that can actually grow your revenue, automate your admin, and wow your customers without you lifting a paw?
Payment processing might seem like a background task, but with Gingr Payments, it’s actually a built-in growth strategy. From automated subscriptions to bundled add-ons and real-time financial insights, Gingr Payments does more than move money. It helps pet-care businesses generate recurring revenue, streamline operations, and boost profits without extra effort.
Whether you’re running a buzzing doggy daycare, a luxury grooming salon, or a full-service pet resort, these hidden tools are your key to working smarter (not harder) and watching your profits fetch higher than ever.
Let’s uncover a few “hacks” you might not even realize you can access with our integrated payment processing.

1. The All-in-One Payment Power-Up
Yes, Gingr Payments handles cards and ACH seamlessly. But that’s just the surface. What you’re really getting is a platform where payments, bookings, services and reporting all live together. Because the pet-industry spend is growing, with more households adopting pets than ever (94 million U.S. households in 2024, up from 82 million in 2023) you want your business systems to scale smartly.
With Gingr Payments, pet-care businesses benefit from:
- Faster, unified deposits and reporting
- Seamless integration with your service lineup (boarding, daycare, grooming, add-ons)
- A checkout process designed for pet-care clients—less friction = fewer abandoned carts
2. Bundle Add-Ons Like a Pro
Here’s a “hack” many overlook: Instead of selling separate services, create bundles that combine your offerings and push average order value up.
Why this matters: The concept of Average Transaction Value (ATV) in retail explains exactly this — how much each customer spends per visit. The higher the ATV, the more revenue you generate with the same number of customers.
Here’s how to apply it in your pet-care business using Gingr Payments:
- Offer a boarding stay plus “premium playtime + nail trim + photo shoot” as a bundled package, and charge once at checkout via Gingr.
- Set up these bundles in the Gingr system so the extras are pre-selected or clearly highlighted at booking, reducing upsell effort at drop-off.
- Track which bundles sell best using your Gingr reporting dashboard—and tweak offers accordingly.
This bundle approach can substantially increase ATV and thereby your revenue without needing more customers.
3. Set It and Forget It with Automated Subscriptions
Want predictable income? You’re looking for recurring revenue. Subscriptions, memberships, and recurring billing make your revenue stable and scalable. In fact, pet businesses that embrace recurring models often see better retention, stronger customer relationships, and improved financial planning.
With Gingr Payments you can:
- Set up monthly grooming memberships (e.g., “Bath, Brush & Bandana Club: $59/month”)
- Offer daycare packages with auto-renew billing (“Unlimited Daycare Pass – billed monthly”)
- Manage renewals, reminders and payment failures—all built in
Why this matters: When you convert willing clients into a subscription mindset, you’re turning one-off purchases into ongoing revenue streams.
Pro tip: Promote your subscription offering as a VIP or member-only benefit (e.g., priority booking, discounted add-ons) to make it feel like an exclusive upgrade.

4. Boost Cash Flow with Smarter Tools
Beyond bundles and subscriptions, Gingr Payments gives you live insights into what’s working—and what’s not.
You can:
- See which services yield the highest profit margins
- Track spending patterns of your regular clients (so you can approach them with the next logical upsell)
- Reconcile deposits, refunds, and invoices from a single dashboard
In an industry projected to generate over $150 billion in U.S. pet services and products in the next few years, having real-time data is your competitive edge.
5. Faster Payouts and Fewer Fees (Yep, That’s Real)
Since Gingr Payments is built into your Gingr ecosystem, you avoid many of the headaches of third-party processors (multiple logins, mismatched customer data, delayed deposits).
That means:
- More money in your account, quicker
- Fewer reconciliation errors (which cost time and money)
- A system that scales with you—so when you launch a new service or add-on, the payment side is already aligned

6. The Hidden Revenue Multiplier
Here’s where it all comes together. When you offer bundled add-ons and increase average spend per transaction, you then convert clients into recurring-revenue subscriptions. As you go, you can use live data and reporting in your pet-care business software to refine your service mix and promotions
You aren’t just accepting payments, you’re earning smarter.
Take a modest scenario: If you add a $15 add-on to 40% of your clients’ bookings, and you have 200 bookings per month—that’s an extra ~$1,200/month, or ~$14,400/year. Now multiply that across multiple add-ons and subscription upgrades.
Because the pet-care market is growing and pet owners increasingly treat their pets like family (which means more frequent and premium services), you’re positioned for growth if your back-end is optimized.
