What are Swaps Payment Links?

A payment link is an invoice-like payment request behind a simple URL. You create it with a client, line items, and an intended settlement destination. Your client opens the link, sees who is requesting payment and exactly how much, then pays through a rail that is available for that invoice, payer type, and provider session.

Who can pay a payment link?

The addressed payer can open the link without a Swaps account. Available payer types, rails, limits, and verification requirements depend on provider policy, invoice currency, payer location, and whether the payer is a business or an individual.

Are there limits for payers?

Yes. Limits are provider and rail specific. Business payer support, individual payer support, amount caps, excluded states, and allowed currencies are checked before the payer chooses a rail. The payment page should only show options that are available for that link.

How do I receive the money?

You choose an intended settlement destination when creating the link. Depending on enabled workspace capabilities and provider support, that can be a supported crypto wallet destination such as USDC, or a supported bank destination. The activated link should preserve the reviewed destination snapshot.

There is no subscription or setup cost for drafting links. Provider costs, network costs, FX or spread, and any Swaps service fee must be visible before money moves. Swaps may earn provider-side commission or route-specific service revenue on completed payments.

Why do I need a business account to activate links?

Collecting payments for goods and services is a commercial activity, and provider-side checks can be required before money moves. You can draft links before verification, but activation depends on business verification, permitted-use attestation, workspace eligibility, and settlement support.

Does Swaps hold my funds?

Swaps is designed as a non-custodial routing and payment-link layer. Swaps does not store private keys. Payment execution, verification, and settlement are handled through supported provider rails and destinations.

Which payment rails are supported?

Rail availability is provider and market dependent. Examples can include ACH or wire for USD, SEPA for EUR, Faster Payments for GBP, PIX for BRL, and SPEI for MXN where those rails are enabled. The payer should only see rails that match the live link.

Can I get paid in USDC?

USDC settlement can be available where the workspace, provider, asset, network, and destination support it. Your client can still pay through an available bank rail, while the merchant settlement path is checked before activation.

Do my clients need a crypto wallet?

Not for bank-rail payment links where a supported provider rail is available. The payer experience is a payment page and payment instructions. Crypto can remain on the merchant settlement side when that destination is enabled.

Which currencies and countries can a client pay from?

Available currencies, countries, and rails are determined by provider support, invoice currency, payer type, merchant state, and destination eligibility. Public examples should be treated as supported-where-enabled, not universal coverage.

How fast does the money arrive?

Timing depends on the selected rail, provider, bank, and settlement destination. Expected processing time should be shown before the payer sends funds, and the merchant dashboard tracks each link through available status events.

Can individuals create payment links, or only businesses?

Users can draft links, but live activation for commercial collection depends on verification, permitted-use checks, and provider eligibility. Individual payer support is limited and provider-specific.

What can I invoice for?

Payment links are for collecting payment for your own goods and services. Certain deposit types and business categories are not permitted by provider policy. The permitted-deposit-types guide in the Help Center has the current details, and you confirm this with a short attestation when you activate a link.

Payment Links — cobra como tu cliente quiere pagar. Recibe como tú prefieras.

Un payment link de Swaps es una factura completa detrás de una URL sencilla. Lo crea con un cliente, líneas de detalle y un destino de cobro; su cliente abre el enlace — sin cuenta de Swaps, sin KYC — y paga con el riel bancario que le convenga: ACH, transferencia, SEPA, Faster Payments, PIX o SPEI. Usted recibe como prefiera: en una wallet de cripto (por ejemplo USDC) o en su propia cuenta bancaria. Swaps se mantiene Non-Custodial de principio a fin; los pagos los procesan proveedores asociados con licencia y regulados.

Cómo funciona

Cree un enlace — añada su cliente, las líneas de detalle y dónde quiere que llegue el dinero, luego actívelo y compártalo.
Su cliente elige su riel bancario — ve exactamente lo que debe y paga desde su propio banco por ACH, transferencia, SEPA, Faster Payments, PIX o SPEI.
Usted recibe como prefiera — los fondos llegan al destino que eligió: una wallet de cripto o su cuenta bancaria, con estado en vivo durante todo el proceso.

Rieles de pago admitidos

ACH y transferencia para USD, SEPA para EUR, Faster Payments para GBP, PIX para BRL y SPEI para MXN. Su cliente solo ve los rieles que coinciden con la moneda de la factura, junto con los tiempos de procesamiento previstos.

Creado para la facturación

Clientes — mantenga en un solo lugar a las personas y empresas a las que factura.
Productos — guarde una sola vez los servicios y artículos que vende, y luego cree facturas a partir de líneas de detalle.
Recordatorios — avisos corteses y programados para enlaces sin pagar, según sus condiciones.

Verificación de empresa, una sola vez

Cobrar pagos por bienes y servicios es una actividad comercial, por lo que nuestro socio de pagos exige que los comercios se verifiquen como empresa (KYB) antes de que se mueva el dinero. La verificación es única y desbloquea el cobro ilimitado de pagadores empresariales en todos los rieles admitidos. Redactar enlaces está abierto a todos; la activación es el único paso restringido.
