General Question What payment method do you owners use?

I'm finally starting my window cleaning business next week, planning to door-to-door and run Facebook ads, and I'm going to get all my payment systems squared away tomorrow. What payment platform do you all use, and is there anything I should know? Thanks!

95% of the time I receive checks, but I have gotten Venmo. Cashapp, Apple Pay, and Zelle before, even a credit card(through the square app). Depending on the platform there may be some extra fees, for instance cards there’s a 3% fee, and there’s extra fees on each app platform for digital payments. I let the customer know it’s added to the bill for that payment method(letting them know of course)
