Secure payment links
All businesses should be able to access secure and compliant transactions without the risk of fraud or missed sales.
With traditional sales methods, unscrupulous actors can initiate chargebacks. Pay by Link eliminates this possibility, meaning you can dispute and minimise chargeback claims and fraudulent activities, which protects you and your customers better.
Using your secure payment links, you can use real-time tracking to easily monitor closed and open transactions from the Epos Now Back Office.
Simple payment structure with no hidden fees
Unlike some other similar services, there is no added surcharge for processing Pay by Link transactions.
Some payment processing platforms charge extra processing fees for online transactions, such as those completed through an e-commerce website.
However, at Epos Now, there is no extra fee for consumers or merchants whether the sale uses chip and pin, contactless, or pays using Pay by Link. This gives your business a flexible omnichannel experience.
