New feature: Payment links

Share a secure payment link with your customers wherever they are

Payment links is a solution that enables shoppers to pay for online purchases by clicking on a secure link. It has been on the market for some time now, but in the past, it was mainly used by the travel sector. Now it’s gaining popularity across multiple industries. The reason behind it is that it is a very diverse and flexible payment method which reduces the friction at the customer’s checkout.

How does it work?

This solution allows customers to pay by clicking on a secure link and following simple steps. Merchants can create a payment link in their service provider platform and share it with their customers via their preferred channel. The whole process takes a few seconds. The payment provider, like Volume, handles the technical side of payment processing, including security and hosting.

Key benefits

Payment links is an easy and secure payment solution not only for merchants but also for their clients, as it doesn’t require customers to insert card details. It’s also a very versatile method as payment links can be sent by any channel and work on almost any device. The most common use cases include call centre, chat/sms, email, social media or invoices. To collect money, the merchant doesn’t even need to own a website as hosting is on the payment provider. This feature is a great payment method that businesses can use to reduce friction and be wherever their customers are at the moment.
