Pay By Link - ePayment Solutions

A pay by link is when you send your customer a secure link by either text message or email for them to open securely and pay a balance due in their own time. A pay by link payment is deemed to be a secure payment as the customer is not only entering their own card details but the link has also been sent via their own communication method to an email address or mobile number given by the customer.

The pay by link is usually processed through a virtual terminal. However, at ePayment Solutions our very own merchant panel supports PBL in our own unique way.

Our Merchant panel will allow you to brand your own pay by link page in the colours and brand of your business, making the payment experience tailored to your business.

A pay by link is perfect for businesses that need to collect payments from a customer to process orders or to capture additional or timed payments, Takeaways and restaurants utilise the pay by link to capture deposit payments for tables.

All in all a pay by link is a fantastic way to ask your clients to pay by card quickly, securely, and efficiently whilst keeping your brand at the forefront of the payments journey.
