Choose the PayLinker flow for your payment need
PayLinker helps professionals collect agreed payments by SMS or email, request a separate card guarantee for a rental and sell paid tickets to individual visitors. Choose the flow that matches what the customer is buying or authorizing.
A service payment, first amount and later balance are collected with distinct requests. A security deposit is authorized on the card rather than collected immediately; ticketing issues individual tickets after confirmed payment.

Choose by what you need to collect
- • A full service payment: send a link for the agreed price and check its status.
- • A first amount and later balance: create separate requests at the agreed times.

From agreement to payment

Choose a flow in practice
These examples distinguish a payment by one customer from an authorization or a ticket bought by each visitor.
A trade visit
After agreeing on the diagnostic fee, the tradesperson sends a payment request and checks it before arranging any later repair.
A catered event
The caterer requests an agreed first amount before ordering ingredients, then sends a distinct balance request when due.
Equipment hire
The operator requests the hire price as a payment and, if needed, a separate card authorization as a guarantee.
Individual event entry
The organiser publishes paid ticket categories; each purchased place receives its own ticket after confirmed payment.
Compare plans when you are ready
- • You can create an account without a subscription; payment activation and verification may be required before collection.
- • Compare the current PayLinker plan, SMS credit and Stripe processing costs on the pricing page.
A payment confirmed in PayLinker is distinct from the later bank payout handled by Stripe.
Keep each amount clear
- • Use one request for each agreed amount so a first payment is not confused with a later balance.
- • Check status before confirming a booking or preparing a service under your terms.
- • Keep card authorizations separate from collected payments and ticket sales.
