What is a payment link (and when to use it)

A payment link is a URL that opens a secure checkout page. You can send it by SMS, email, or messaging apps. The customer clicks, pays online, and the payment is confirmed.

It’s perfect when you’re not face-to-face (booking, accepted quote, rental, deposit before travel), or when you want a simple experience without a terminal.

What you gain with payment links

Less friction

No bank transfer steps, no device to carry: one link, one payment.

Instant proof

A time-stamped confirmation and automatic receipt for your accounting.

Clear process

You set the amount, deadline and terms. Customers understand what they pay for.

SMS payment links: the most effective scenario

SMS is direct: it’s read quickly and the link is clickable on mobile. Often the best option for deposits, booking fees or security deposits.
