“Payment flexibility has never been more important than it is today, with the financial uncertainty many are facing," noted PayPoint Client Services Director Danny Vant.

PayPoint says the latest improvements to the PayByLink package will give customers more flexibility when it comes to managing their payments and repayments. Customers will also get a barcode for making an in-store payment, if they choose it, or have the option for requesting a call back in order to allow them to pay over the phone.

PayByLink can also be easily integrated into an existing CRM system.
