Get paid in seconds with HitPay’s payment links

Accepting payments from your customers should be fuss-free.

HitPay’s Payment Links are just that - a link you share across your sales channel for your customers. Your customer clicks on the link, pays for their purchase in a secure, contactless way and you get your money instantly.

Here we’ll show you how to set up Payment Links for your online store through the HitPay dashboard and mobile app.

  • Collect payments anywhere online: HitPay’s Payment Links work across all your sales channels, including QR codes, WhatsApp, email, social media apps or PayNow. No need to fiddle around across multiple apps or interfaces; get everything done efficiently by sending or copy and pasting one link.
  • Collect payments from customers remotely: Customers unable to come to your store or opting for contactless delivery? Your point of sale (POS) staff can send your customer a payment link to facilitate payment while maintaining physical safety and security.
  • Speed up in-person payments with QR codes: Reduce in-store queueing time and enhance your customer experience by speeding up the payment process. Simply present the HitPay QR code within the mobile app to accept in-person payments using PayNow and digital wallet services like Apple Pay or Google Pay.

Step 1: Log in to the HitPay app. Enter the amount charged and an optional remark or description.

Step 2: Select Payment Link as the payment method

Step 3: Share the created link URL with your customer through email, WhatsApp or other sales channels
