How do I create a Standing Link?

A Standing Link can be used by multiple clients and does not get paid down, unlike a standard Payment Link. Standing links can be fixed or variable amounts, or a subscription. This article outlines how to create a Standing Link.

    • Make this Standing Link a subscription. Choose to create a Standing Link such that it initiates recurring payments when a client enters payment information into the link.
    • Link Name. This is an internal name for the Standing Link (i.e., "Invoice Link").
    • Forwarding URL (optional). The client will be redirected to this URL after completing a payment.
    • Deposit Account. This is the bank account into which funds will be deposited after the payment is made.

    • Include Client Notes Text Field (optional). Check this box to require clients to submit additional information with their payment.
    • Customize Label. If you checked the Include Client Notes Text Field box, enter a label or description of the field. This will instruct the client on what to submit. The notes entered by the client in this field will show up in Reports and on the Standing Link transaction list.
