After generating your Payment Link URL, you can share it with customers in various ways:
- Embed it in a website button
- Include it in follow-up communications for abandoned carts
- Send it directly via email
Once created through the API or HUB, the payment link can be shared as many times as needed. The link is reusable, allowing customers to retry payments in case of a decline, which reduces the lost sales opportunities.
Additionally, it provides various API types for different transactions, simplifying operations for merchants. Key aspects include:
- Authorization, settlement, and refunds
- Payment without CVV
- Zero-amount authorization
- Retry logic to improve conversion rates
Please note that only PCI DSS certified merchants are eligible for full API access, as they collect sensitive card data and host the payment form.
Businesses can gain significant strategic advantages through the integration of popular APMs such as PayPal, Open banking, and others.
Beyond expanding payment flexibility, APMs may have own frameworks for handling disputes and processing refunds. Companies that develop expertise in these payment methods can deliver enhanced customer support, streamline issue resolution, and protect revenue.
The combination of varied payment methods and informed dispute management not only builds customer confidence but also supports business growth and competitive advantage.
