How do I receive card payment from my customers?

Updated over 2 weeks ago

To start accepting card payments from your customers, simply complete a short onboarding process.

Once approved, you’ll have full control — easily turning the card payment option on or off based on your preferences and business needs.

Start receiving card payments

You can begin accepting card payments from your customers in two ways:

When issuing an invoice, you can choose how your customer pays — by bank transfer or card payment.

In the Payment Details section of the invoice, simply toggle on the “Card Payments” option. Once enabled, your customer can pay using card details, Apple Pay, or Google Pay.

You can also find and copy the invoice link later by going to “Get Paid” → “Invoices”.

  • The invoice link has no expiration date but can be used only once. After the customer has paid, the link becomes inactive.

  • Additionally, you can’t pause the link, you can only “Mark as Complete” or permanently “Cancel” the invoice.

You can easily generate a standalone payment link by navigating to “Get Paid” → “Payment Links” → “Create a Link”.

It allows you to collect payments via card, QR code, Apple Pay, or Google Pay—without the need to create an invoice.

All your links are available anytime under “Get Paid” → “Payment Links”.

  • This link can be reused for the same products or services by enabling the “Reusable Link” option.

  • Payment links have no expiration date and can be paused or re-enabled at any time.

The E-commerce Plugins feature allows you to connect Vivid’s payment gateway to supported e-commerce platforms, so you can accept card payments directly through your online store.

This creates a fast, secure checkout experience for your customers and is available under “Get Paid” → “E-commerce Plugins” in your web dashboard.
