Streamline your online payments with pay by link

If you’re an e-commerce merchant accepting online payments, you should be utilising pay by link. Forget hiring developers, obtaining licenses, or changing your website – pay by link is a fast, safe, and convenient way to create a temporary payment page and accept credit and debit card payments, as well as Alternative Payment Methods, by simply sending a link to your customers via their preferred channels.

And the best news? Ecommpay does the work for you!

Opening an online store, acquiring the necessary certification to take payments online, and creating a secure payment page is a time-consuming and often expensive process. The optimal solution is to send customers a payment link.

A payment link is a one-time invoice that can be sent by email, messenger, or any other method preferred by the customer. Clicking on the link reveals the invoice, and the customer can enter their card details and confirm the payment. The whole transaction is complete in just a few clicks.

Connecting this payment method is effortless. Sending a link does not require integration with a payment gateway or an API, and there’s no need to create a secure payment page. You don’t need to hire developers or spend money on building in-house IT infrastructure - all you need to do is connect to the Ecommpay client interface. Here, you’ll be able to create payment links, monitor payment statuses in real-time, analyse incoming revenues, and create financial reports.

After filling out some short forms without the merchant dashboard, you can create a payment link within a few simple steps, which can then be copied and pasted to be sent your customer.

You can send the link directly through the interface, or create email and order templates. You can also set up notifications in case your customer forgets to pay.

Once the payment link is generated, you can view and edit the message template in the email window, with the ability to change the body of text, add recipients, and even send hidden copies.

Payment links are sent from your domain address, and your customers will see your company name in the message.

You can specify a time period for the payment link to remain active, and if the buyer has not paid, you can send the link again. If the link expires, the order is either cancelled or a new secure payment link is generated, depending on your preferences. Once payment is received, a notification with details of the transaction and its current status is sent to the customer.

Monitor order status and send reminders to your customer to pay for their purchase with ease from within the merchant dashboard.

Accepting online payments via pay by link does not require additional certificates and licenses. The personal data the buyer enters when using a payment link is not visible to anyone but them, and this information is not stored on the seller’s website.

All customer data is encrypted using tokenization. Ecommpay complies with PCI DSS, storing sensitive information securely in the form of tokens. These tokens are indecipherable to anyone outside the Ecommpay system.

A pay by link payment page has default settings for quick and easy set up, but can also be customised to match your corporate style and brand. These design settings can be selected manually within the client interface, or you can discuss further options with our team of experts. Sporting your company branding provides an additional layer of trust, helping your customers feel confident when entering their payment details.
