QuickFee has partnered with Jim's Financial Services to operate the Jim's Buy Now, Pay Later product - Jim's Pay Plan

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 30, 2021

Key highlights of the partnership

• The franchise will see Jim's franchisees being able offer customers the option of paying in four-, six-, nine- or 12-month instalments under a white-label version of QuickFee's "Buy Now, Pay Later" (BNPL) instalments product, to be known as "Jim's Pay Plan".
• Jim's Pay Plan will meet increasing demand from Jim's franchisees and their customers for instalment payment plans across a range of franchise divisions within the Jim's Group.
• The deal provides access to potentially over 4,400 franchisees in over 50 divisions which provide home services such as Jim's Antennas, Jim's Pest Control and Jim's Fencing.
• The franchise agreement operates for 20 years with an option to renew.

QuickFee's solution enables individual Jim's franchisees to offer their homeowner customers the ability to take out a payment plan immediately for services, using a debit or credit card, with no credit checks or pre-authorisation required. QuickFee's easy-to-use bespoke payment portal can be accessed digitally via QR code, invoice or quote link, text to pay, or via computer, tablet or phone.

Initial rollout commences in December 2021, with the payment solution being extended to a broad range of Jim's divisions that specialise in home services. Jim's Group has over 4,400 franchisees in over 50 divisions covering everything from lawn mowing to cleaning, conveyancing and removals, and represents a substantial opportunity for QuickFee to roll out its BNPL and payment solutions across the broader Jim's Group.
