Any no-immediate delivery method can be used with Pay by link.

This feature is open for S-PAY users, not to other payment service provider.

On the same point of sales, is it possible to use credit card (TPE) and credit card (pay-by-link) ?

Yes.

Do we need to configure a specific payment mode (credit card pay by link)?

No. PayByLink is payment by credit card (like MOTO).

When does a Pay By Link expire?

 This is a configuration setting in the back end. You can decide how long it's valid for. 

By default it is set to 30 days. To change the setting, please open a service ticket.

Our recommendations are 30 min to 1h . Indeed we suggest to stop taking orders before the end of day to be able to close the cashdesk. ex: expiry is 1h, you close at 17h you should stop taking order after 16h.

How we manage cash desk closure with Pay by link ?

During all the process the payment is in progress meaning you cannot close your cash desk we strongly advise you to put short deadline for the expiration.

Does the client receive the email quickly ?

This can take few minutes.

Where can I find an order waiting for the payment of the customer ?

As it’s in progress is not in the list you have on the sales screen but you can find it in the list of file or searching the file by the number.

How we manage exchange of files with Pay by link ?

Changing an existing order such as moving from one time to another. 

  • Find and cancel the original order to the Customer Credit payment method.

  • This holds the money directly against the contact record.

  • Create a new order with the new date/products and use "multiple payments"

  • Use Customer Credit for the same value as the original order. Note, you will have to manually enter this value. 

  • User Credit/Debit Card (PayByLink) for the remaining balance.

  • Order marked as in progress

  • Customer makes payment via PayByLink and order changes to Settled.

 Note for reporting, to ensure their is a link between the 2 orders, you can use "Retrieve file number" so the file number is the same for both the original and new order.

 Adding an additional item/product to the order such as an extra person or extra product

  • Find original file and select "Retrieve file number"

  • Add in the new or additional products to the order.

  • User Credit/Debit Card (PayByLink) for payment method.

  • Order marked as in progress

  • Customer makes payment via PayByLink and order changes to Settled.
