Imagine this scenario: you’ve recently launched a small business focused on handcrafted items, and your main sales channel is a newly opened physical shop. Since you’re just getting started, building a strong online presence is still on your to-do list.

It’s understandable that you may not have the financial resources required to invest in a professional eCommerce website. After all, launching a full-featured online store can come with a hefty price tag.

To overcome this, you’ve turned to social media platforms to connect with your audience and promote your creations directly to potential buyers.

But this leads to a critical challenge: how can you receive online payments from your customers without having a dedicated website?

“You absolutely need a website!” – that’s the typical advice most people would give.

Fortunately, there are 3 practical and reliable methods to receive online payments even if you don’t run an online shop. Let’s explore how you can easily tap into a digital payment system without needing a website at all!

PayLink

At myPOS, we fully recognize that independent sellers, small business owners, and freelancers often face tight budgets at the beginning of their journey. Allocating funds for a website might simply not be an option.

That’s why we set out to create an accessible, user-friendly solution to help sellers accept card payments—without the complications of setting up an online store. This vision led to the development of a game-changing tool: the PayLink.

With PayLink, you can effortlessly create a personalized payment link right from your myPOS merchant account. In just a few clicks, you’ll have a link that takes your customer to a secure payment page where they can enter their card and billing details.

This link can be shared with anyone who has internet access—whether they’re across town or across the globe. Now, accepting card payments is no longer limited by geography or the need for a website.

PayButton

Meet the PayButton: a sleek, clickable button designed to grab attention and convert interest into action. You can create one in under six clicks from your myPOS dashboard.

This tool functions similarly to the PayLink but offers a more visual and engaging format. With just one click, customers are taken to a secure payment portal to finalize their purchase. All of this, once again, with zero reliance on a website.

Payment request

Another flexible option is the Payment Request. While it operates in a way that’s close to the PayLink, it introduces a few extra advantages. You can generate it from your myPOS account, through the mobile app, or even directly from your myPOS terminal devices.

This feature allows you to send out payment requests to customers, relatives, or even friends—no matter where they are in the world. Whether they’re across the street or across the ocean, getting paid becomes easy and immediate.

Each request remains active for 30 days, and you can track its progress in real-time—whether it’s been completed, is still pending, or has expired. Accepting payments online has never been more efficient or user-friendly!

What happens next?

Regardless of which myPOS feature you choose—PayLinks, PayButtons, or Payment Requests—the funds are instantly credited to your e-money account. You gain immediate access to your earnings without delays or additional steps.

This approach offers a seamless way to reap the advantages of digital transactions while bypassing the hassle of developing a website, managing sensitive user data, or investing in complicated eCommerce infrastructure.

All three payment tools are readily available to myPOS users—ready to empower your business with quick, secure, and website-free payment processing.
