“Since implementing Prommt, we have seen a clear improvement in both payment times and customer experience. Payments are now received significantly faster, with enhanced visibility and tracking, making reconciliation and day-to-day management far more efficient for staff. The introduction of card payments has also increased flexibility for customers when exploring housing upgrades, as the system now supports a wider range of payment options, including credit cards.”

Gleeson Homes
Overview
Gleeson Homes is a leading housebuilder delivering high-quality homes at an exceptional value across the North of England and the Midlands.
They focus on investing in and regenerating brownfield land, transforming underused sites into attractive developments of 2, 3, 4 and 5-bedroom homes. Every home includes front and rear gardens and a private driveway, and locations are chosen for their practicality and appeal, helping to create thriving communities and making homeownership genuinely accessible.
Alongside their Head Office in Sheffield, they operate through regional offices in Leeds, East Yorkshire, the Midlands, Tees Valley, Tyne and Wear, Greater Manchester and Merseyside, and Cumbria.
The Challenge
Gleeson was undertaking a wider modernisation of its payment processes, recognising that its existing approach had become too manual and time consuming for both staff and customers. Their previous setup relied on card payments taken over the phone and manual bank transfers, creating unnecessary friction and slowing down payment cycles. This placed a heavy administrative burden on teams who needed clearer visibility and easier management of transactions.
Customers also lacked flexible payment options, particularly when exploring housing upgrades, which limited convenience and slowed decision making. Gleeson needed a secure, efficient and customer friendly solution that could streamline workflows, accelerate payment times and support a broader range of payment methods. Their goal was to bring their operations in line with modern expectations while improving the overall experience for homebuyers and internal teams alike.

“We explored a solution like Prommt as part of a wider review to bring Gleeson Homes up to date with modern payment processing. Our existing approach was manual, creating inefficiencies for both staff and customers. We wanted a system that was more efficient and customer‑friendly, enabling swifter payments, easier management, and improved visibility over transactions. Prommt offered a secure, flexible solution that aligned with our aim to streamline processes, reduce administrative burden, and improve the overall payment experience.”

- Real‑time visibility and tracking improved reconciliation, reduced admin time, and helped staff manage day‑to‑day payments with ease.
- Secure, compliant payment flows ensured both staff and customers could transact with confidence.
- A more modern, customer‑friendly experience aligned with Gleeson Homes’ broader digital transformation goals.
