What is Pay by Link?
Pay by Link is an online payment solution that allows businesses to collect payments from customers without the need for an online store or ecommerce website. Through a secure payment link, merchants can send payment requests to their customers quickly and easily through any digital channel.
How does Pay by Link work?
The merchant generates a unique payment link through their payment platform and sends it to the customer via their preferred communication channel, such as email, SMS, WhatsApp, social media, or any other digital channel.
When the customer clicks on the link, they are automatically redirected to a secure payment page where they can complete the purchase using their preferred payment method.
Thanks to this system, businesses can accept online payments without the need for complex technical developments or advanced integrations.
Benefits of Pay by Link
- Simplicity and speed: Collect payments without the need for an online store or a virtual payment gateway setup.
- Flexible delivery: Payment links can be shared through any digital channel, adapting to the customer’s preferred communication method (social media, SMS, email, etc.).
- Multiple payment methods: Customers can pay using cards, digital wallets, or other alternative payment methods.
- No geographical barriers: Makes it easier to accept payments from customers located beyond the reach of a physical store.
- Customization: Add your brand’s logo, colors, and visual identity elements to the payment page.
