Large merchants / automation:
Small merchants / get-paid-fast:

Ideal Merchants

Merchants who:
Sell services/products online but don’t want a full ecommerce site
Sell in person and want to take QR payments
Run high-volume invoicing
Do phone sales and need instant links (can see payments in real time)
Take payments via email, SMS, WhatsApp or chat
Run field agents or call centres
Are blocked by software that won’t integrate with their PSP
Need a backup or secondary payment channel
Want faster cashflow and fewer unpaid invoices
If a merchant says:
“Our software doesn’t integrate with your PSP,” this is the answer.

What You’re Selling

Links Checkout is an instant, no-integration payment solution that lets merchants collect money from any channel — SMS, WhatsApp, email, chat, phone, AI agents, CRMs, booking systems, field agents and more.

Key differentiator

Merchants can change their payment gateway at any time and keep the exact same Links Checkout account, links, workflows, and setup.
This removes one of the biggest sources of churn and lets ISOs win merchants even when software integrations block you.

Why ISO Partners Use Links Checkout

1. Win merchants even when their software doesn’t support your PSP

Software often dictates which gateway a merchant must use.
Links Checkout removes that limitation:
Merchant keeps their existing PSP
Starts using Links instantly
You retain control of the payment volume
If they switch PSP in future, everything still works
No re-implementation, no migrations, no downtime
This is a top-tier offensive + defensive ISO tool.

2. New revenue stream on top of your PSP economics

You earn 20% of Shuttle’s upgrade fee
Merchant keeps their existing PSP processing
Your PSP residuals stay untouched
Links Checkout becomes an additional revenue line

3. Defend accounts and massively reduce churn

Merchants change PSPs when:
Their software evolves
They expand internationally
They add or remove payment methods
They get pricing pressure
With Links Checkout:
Their payment links, setup, workflows and user access never change, even when they switch PSP.
This eliminates churn caused by technical incompatibility — a major ISO killer.

4. No integration work. No engineering. No certification.

Pitch Scripts

15-Second Pitch

“Links Checkout gives you instant payment links you can share through any channel. You keep your current PSP, and even if you switch PSP later, your links and setup stay exactly the same.”

Longer Pitch

“Most merchants lose money during payment hand-off — phone, chat, WhatsApp, email, support desks. Links Checkout fixes this with instant, channel-agnostic payment links. There’s no installation, no disruption, and no dependence on your software. And if you ever change payment provider, your links all keep working.”
