Why US businesses choose Paytia payment links
Secure, branded, and flexible payment links that reach customers on any channel — and stay on the right side of PCI DSS and TCPA.
Ease of Use
Creating and sharing payment links takes a few clicks. Your customers get a simple, familiar flow and finish the transaction in under a minute.
Multi-Channel Distribution
Send links by email, SMS, chat, or embed them right inside an invoice. Meet customers on whichever channel they actually use — no app download, no sign-up.
3D Secure Transactions
Every link lands on a 3D Secure, PCI DSS-compliant payment page. Card data never hits your systems, which keeps chargebacks low and your compliance scope small.
White-Label Branding
Customize payment pages with your logo, brand colors, and company details. Customers see your brand from the link through to the receipt — not ours.
Link Expiry Settings
Set an expiration on every link. Expired links stop working, which cuts the window for abuse and nudges people to pay while the invoice is still top of mind.
Secure Code Verification
Paytia Secure Code gives customers a short verification code they can match against the link before paying. It's a straightforward defense against phishing and spoofed messages.
More control over your payment links
Custom Email Sending
Send through your own mail server and domain so the message reads as coming from you. Better deliverability, fewer spam folders, and no confusion over who's asking for money.
Branded Email Templates
Drop your logo into Paytia's email templates for a clean, professional look that matches the rest of your customer communications.
Custom Support Email
Route any replies or inquiries to your own customer service address. Your team handles the conversation — we stay out of the way.
Button-Based Links
Links render as buttons instead of long raw URLs. Customers click with confidence instead of hesitating over a suspicious-looking string of characters.
Send links for payment by email, SMS, or chat
Create a secure payment link
Create a link in the Paytia dashboard or through the API. Set the amount, add an invoice reference, and pick your delivery channel.
Send by email, SMS, or chat
Pick how the link goes out — email, SMS, or whichever messaging channel your customers prefer. The request arrives with your branding, not ours.
Customer clicks and pays
The link opens a secure, branded payment page. Your customer enters their card details on a 3D Secure, PCI-compliant page — never in the email or text message itself.
Payment confirmed in real time
We process the payment and send real-time notifications to both sides. You get a confirmation in your dashboard; your customer gets one on screen, by email, and by SMS.

Frequently asked questions
What are secure payment links and how do they work?+
Secure payment links are PCI DSS-compliant URLs you send to customers by email, SMS, or chat. The customer clicks the link, lands on a secure branded page, and completes the transaction there. Card data is processed by Paytia, so sensitive details never touch your systems.
How secure are Paytia payment links?+
They're fully PCI DSS Level 1 compliant with 3D Secure authentication on every transaction. The payment page is encrypted, and card data bypasses your business entirely — which keeps your PCI scope as small as possible.
Can I customize payment links with my branding?+
Yes. White-label branding covers the payment page itself — logo, colors, company info — plus the email templates, sending domain, and support contact. Customers see your brand end to end.
What is Paytia Secure Code?+
A short verification code that goes out with the link. Customers match the code on the payment page against the one in your message, so they can tell real requests from phishing attempts before entering any card details.
Can I set expiration times for payment links?+
Yes. You choose how long a link stays valid. After that it stops working, which reduces the risk of unauthorized reuse and tends to speed up payment.
How do I send payment links to customers?+
By email, SMS, chat, or embedded in an invoice. Paytia ships customizable email templates with button-style links, and you can send from your own domain so the message reads as coming from you — not a third party. We pair this with TCPA-aware SMS workflows so outbound texts stay on the right side of US consent rules.
Do payment links integrate with my existing systems?+
Yes. We connect to CRMs, accounting platforms, invoicing tools, and payment gateways through a standard API. Transactions reconcile back against your records automatically.
What happens after a customer completes payment?+
You get a real-time notification in the dashboard and through any integrations you've wired up. The customer gets instant confirmation on screen, by email, and by SMS. Everything drops into whatever workflow you already have.
