Create a Payment Link
Step-by-step process
Step 1. Select a buyer
To start, you can create a payment link for your deal from the Buyers or Deals pages. Search for your buyer.
Step 2. Add the subscription details
Provide an informative title and description of the contract that’s being financed. You can add the specific products and services in a moment. You also have the opportunity to select which payment methods you want to offer the customer and which internal teammates should receive updates for this subscription.
Heads up! Credit card payments may be available upon request. Contact your Customer Success Manager or Growth Advisor to learn about enabling credit cards as a payment option and the associated fees.
Step 3. Add service line items
On this page, you will add each service included in the subscription. After adding the title and, optionally, the description of the item, choose its value, frequency, and duration, and specify when the first charge should occur. Your deal may have one service item or multiple.
Service item frequency options
- One-time: The one-time fees are due on the earliest first charge date of any item in the subscription.
- Monthly: This is the most popular way to offer flexible payment options.
- Quarterly: Some Vendors or Buyers prefer quarterly payments.
Reordering service items
In the Schedule Builder, you can drag and drop items to reorder them in the summary. The summary on the left-hand side is exactly what your customer will see during checkout.
Step 4. Confirm and create the link
Here you can review the flexible payment schedule and how it will look to your buyer, and then confirm.
Step 5. Share the payment link
Success! You've created your payment link. You can preview it or copy it to send to your buyer. You can embed the payment link in invoices or an eSignature flow, or share it in any other way.
Demo
Edit a payment link
You can update the payment link at any point before it is completed by your buyer. Find the deal on the Deals page of the Capchase Pay Vendor Hub and click the three dots all the way to the right. This opens a drop-down menu with the Edit option.
Preview the payment link
Once you create a payment link to present the flexible payment options to your buyer, you can preview the link first to see what your buyer will see. In the preview mode, you can click to enter test data throughout the buyer flow without worrying about messing anything up.
Create a payment link with multiple line items
You can have the line items at different payment frequencies, for example, some at one time and others at monthly or quarterly.
