Pay Using PayTabs

Your customer opens the invoice, chooses Pay Using PayTabs and pays on PayTabs' hosted checkout. The payment is verified with PayTabs and applied to that invoice.

  • Amount taken from the invoice
  • Applied to the right invoice

Paid where they started

Checkout opens in its own window. Once the payment is verified, that window refreshes the invoice page and closes, so your customer sees the invoice marked paid.
