Contactless Payments Made Easy: discover the advantages of Pay-by-Link
A pay link enables businesses to send their customers a safe and encrypted link via email or text message. This pay by link empowers customers to conveniently settle any outstanding balance at their own convenience. The payment is secure as customers not only input their card details but also receive the pay link through their preferred communication channel, be it an email address or mobile number they provided.
