Overview

Have you ever thought that your can get a paid order just after sending your customer a link to buy it?

With the CS-Cart Pay by Link add-on, you can easily create payment links and deliver them directly to your customers' inbox. All you need is to create an order, copy the order’s link in your admin panel and send it automatically with an invitation letter containing a link to view and pay the order.

You can also send the link via Facebook or another social network with a private message to your customer.

If you have discussed all the details with a customer by phone, just place an order and send it via email. Without extra steps after clicking on the payment link your client will be automatically logged in and will be able to pay the order immediately.

To sum it up, with the CS-Cart Pay by Link add-on you’ll be able to:

  • Create payment links for orders;
  • Send the customer an invitation letter to view the order details;
  • Send the customer an invitation to pay the order;
  • Add payment links to invoices, email quotes and booking confirmations;
  • Avoid customers’ mistakes in orders;
  • Improve cash-flow by giving your customers a quick way to pay;
  • Enhance customer experience with a 'pay now' button in newsletters.

How it works

After you have installed the add-on go to Orders - View orders and select the order you want to send with a link.


There, you will see a new “Information by invitation link” block added with settings and 2 links — link to view the order details and a link to pay the order. If you want to place it anywhere, just copy and paste it wherever you want.


To send an invitation letter, go to Orders - View orders and select the order. Click the gear button at the top and select Send an invitation to buy.


This is how the email notification may look in the user’s inbox.


By clicking the View the order link, the user will see the order details.

By clicking the Pay the order link, the user will be redirected to the corresponding payment method page.
