What Is A Pay Link and How Does It Work?

A Pay Link is a simple, secure way for your customers to pay you online without needing a physical card machine or in-person transaction. Instead of swiping a card, you generate a unique link for the exact amount you’d like to charge. This link can then be shared instantly through channels your customers already use, like WhatsApp, SMS, email, or even social media.

When your customer clicks the Pay Link, they’re taken to a secure iKhokha payment page. Here, they can review the amount, enter their card or payment details, and complete the purchase safely. Payments are processed in real time, and both you and your customer receive confirmation once the transaction is successful.

Because Pay Links are digital, they’re especially useful if you run a service-based business, take bookings, or sell remotely. They remove the friction of cash or in-person payments and give your customers the flexibility to pay you anytime, anywhere.

Benefits of Using Pay Links

• Convenience: Create and share links in seconds through WhatsApp, SMS, email, or social media.
• Security: Customers pay through a trusted iKhokha-hosted payment page with secure encryption.
• Flexibility: Ideal for remote sales, service-based businesses, or when a card machine isn’t available.
• Faster Payments: Customers can pay you instantly from their phone or computer, helping you get paid quicker.

In short, Pay Links combine the convenience of online payments with the trust and security of the iKhokha ecosystem, helping you get paid faster and keep your business moving.
