Send payment requests to your clients

You can send a payment request to a specific contact via email or URL. This payment request can only be used once, and you can send reminders if the client hasn't completed the payment yet. Once the payment is made, the link is automatically deactivated and the transaction is visible from the Transactions dashboard.

Good to know

On the Payment requests dashboard, you can search for a specific payment reason and filter your requests by status.

➕ Create and send a request

Step 1: Create a payment request

  1. Go to Payments > Payment requests.
  2. Click Create request.
  3. Enter the Amount to be paid.
  4. Enter the name or email of the client to which you want to send the request:

      Click Create a new contact and enter their email address in the field below.
  5. Enter a Request reason that will be visible on the payment page.

Step 2: Share the payment request

Once you've created your payment request, you will be prompted to send it. You can either copy the payment request URL or send an email directly.

  1. Click Copy next to the URL.
    You can then paste this URL and share it with your customer, for example, by SMS, WhatsApp, or email.
  2. Leave the default message or type your own.
  3. Click Send by email to send the request.

  1. Go to Payments > Payment requests.
  2. Click a request reason to open its details.
  3. Click Send reminder.
