Independent real estate agents focus
In property and rental management, every late payment complicates your files. With PayLinker, you send an SMS deposit link or a payment link for fees as soon as a mandate, booking or assignment is validated: the client pays remotely and you secure the transaction before providing the bulk of your work. Fees, deposits, additional services and visits: everything can be collected via a PayLinker link, without a terminal and without chasing bank transfers. Each payment generates an automatic PDF receipt for your records and for the client, which makes preparing files easier in case of audit or dispute. For higher amounts (search mandates, premium services, works coordination), you can offer instalment payments via Stripe. You are paid immediately in PayLinker, while instalments are spread for the client, without extra manual tracking. Each payment link is time‑stamped and tied to a file or client. You can see at a glance what has been paid, what remains due and which payments need a reminder. Your own terms and conditions remain the base: you decide how you handle postponements, credits and partial refunds, while PayLinker manages payments, notifications and history for professional, clear tracking.
