One-off or reusable
Build a link for a single job and retire it once the money is in, or keep one live that any number of customers can pay through.
Payment Links
Send a link. Get paid by card.
Make a link for whatever you are charging for and pass it on however you already talk to customers — WhatsApp, email, social, or a plain text message. Use it once, or leave it up for everyone.

What a link can do
One form, every kind of request
The same short form covers a deposit, a market stall, a tip jar, and a fundraiser. What changes is how long the link lives and who decides the amount.
Fix the price yourself
Type the figure once and every payer sees the same total. Handy for deposits, set-price services, and anything you have already quoted.
Or let the payer decide
Leave the amount open and the customer types their own. That one switch turns a payment link into a tip jar or a donation page.
Share it anywhere
Drop it into a WhatsApp thread, an email, a social bio, or a text. A link travels through whatever app the conversation is already in.
Paid and pending, side by side
Each link shows you what has been collected and what you are still waiting on, so chasing a customer is a decision rather than a guess.
Cards, and a wallet when it fits
Visa, Mastercard, and American Express on every link, plus Apple Pay, Google Pay, Amazon Pay, or Cash App Pay when the payer qualifies for one.
Tracking
Know what is paid and what is still out there
A link is not finished when you send it. Atlas Pay keeps every request in one list, marks it the moment a card goes through, and adds the payment to the payout heading for your bank account.
- PaidThe card cleared and the amount is on its way to your bank.
- PendingThe link has gone out and nobody has paid it yet.
- ReceiptsYour customer gets an emailed receipt for every payment that succeeds.
- One recordLinks sit beside your QR, contract, subscription, and store sales.

How it works
Three steps to a paid link
Only the first step needs any thought. After that you are copying a link and watching for the payment.

FAQ
Payment link questions
No. They tap the link, land on a secure checkout page, and pay with a card. There is nothing to download and no account to sign up for.
That is up to you. A reusable link stays open and can be paid by as many customers as you send it to. A one-off link is meant for a single payment, which suits a deposit or a quote you do not want settled twice.
Yes. Leave the amount open and whoever opens the link types what they want to pay. It is the setting to use for tips, contributions, and donations, and you can switch back to a fixed price at any time.
The Free and Brand plans charge 4.9% + $0.40 on each payment. Pro lowers that to 4.2% + $0.40. The fee comes out of the payment you receive, and on Pro you can pass it to the customer instead.
