In today’s fast-moving digital world, the way we accept payments is changing — and fast. Whether you’re a freelancer, a small business owner, or running an online shop, chances are you don’t want to chase after bank transfers or wait for customers to “get back to you” with a payment. That’s where Payment Links come in.
It’s simple. It’s instant. And it works.
What Is a Payment Link?
A payment link is exactly what it sounds like — a clickable link that you send to your customer so they can pay you online. The link directs them to a secure payment page where they can pay with their card, Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, or any supported method.
No app downloads. No cash. No awkward follow-ups.
You just send a link. They pay. Done.
Why UAE Businesses Love Payment Links
In the UAE, where speed, convenience, and mobile-first solutions are everything, payment links are becoming the go-to solution for businesses of all sizes. Whether you’re delivering karak tea, offering salon services, or selling custom abayas online — payment links keep your cash flow moving.
Here’s why they work so well:
✅ No need for a website or app
✅ Accept payments via WhatsApp, Instagram, email, or SMS
✅ Get notified instantly when your customer pays
✅ Offer your customers a seamless, secure experience
How It Works (In Real Life)
Let’s say you run a home-based baking business in Dubai. A customer places an order on Instagram. You send them a payment link through DM. They click, pay, and you’re instantly notified.
Now instead of chasing payments, you’re already preparing their order — with confidence that the money’s received.

Faster Payments — No delays, no excuses.
Less Follow-Up — Send the link and focus on your work.
