“Send me your account details for payment”. If you own an online store (an Instagram store, maybe) and sell to customers outside of your location, you must have heard this a million times from prospects and customers. And even after the transaction is done, you’ll still have to go through the stress of requesting evidence of payment (debit alert screenshots) from the said prospect or customer.
Well, we totally understand these challenges, hence we created the Payment link feature to provide online business owners like you with an easy way to collect payments from your customers, without hassle. This feature allows you to create a simple link to collect either one-time or recurring payments.

How It Works
The payment link created can be shared with other people (customers) via Email, WhatsApp, direct social media messages, and via any other medium of your choice, for payment. Once your customer receives it, all he/she needs to do is click the link and begin the payment process. You, on the other hand, gets credited immediately into your Glade account.
