You can easily email payment links to your clients for them to pay online!
Sending The Link
When you generate a Proposal, Invoice, or Contract to send to your client, there are two options on the Email Report screen:
- Send payment link (this event): Send a payment for the specific event you are currently working in
- Send payment link (all published events): Send a payment link for all events for the current Contact that are published
This will insert a line of code into your email that appears to you like this:
Send payment link (this event) : $|Click Here to Pay Your Invoice|$
or
Send payment link (all published events) : $|Click Here to Pay Your Invoices|$
When received by your client it will have been converted into a clickable link and will appear like this:
NOTE: Any event where you email with the option of Send payment link (this event) will automatically be published when the payment link is sent. Alternatively, For Send payment link (all published events) you will want to ensure all events you want to appear in the portal are manually published.
Publishing an Event
You can pick and choose what events you want to send to the client for payment. Sending a payment link that allows your client to pay for multiple payments at once simply requires you to publish them so they are seen in the payment portal.
To publish an event simply open the event(s) you want to appear in the payment portal and click Publish to Portal in the upper left corner:
This will open the Event Portal Publishing window. Click the Event Payments toggle to on, click Save, and now the event will appear when you email the Send payment link (all published events) link.
Client Payment Portal
Once your client clicks the link you emailed, it will open the Payment Portal:
