Every Invoice Comes With a Way to Pay It Right Now
Customers pay directly from the invoice with a secure payment link, and the payment posts to your ledger and clears AR the moment it’s received.
What online payments in Fintra does
The gap between sending an invoice and getting paid is often just friction: a customer meant to mail a check, or initiate a transfer, and it slipped. Every Fintra invoice includes a payment link, so paying takes one click instead of a separate step the customer has to remember to do later - and the payment reconciles itself the instant it clears.
- A secure payment link included automatically on every invoice
- Payment posts to the ledger and clears AR the moment it’s received
- No manual matching of a bank deposit to the invoice it paid
- Payment status visible on the invoice and in AR aging in real time
Core capabilities
| Capability | What it does | What it replaces |
|---|---|---|
| Payment links | Adds a direct pay link to every sent invoice | A customer who has to be told how to pay |
| Instant AR clearing | Closes the invoice out of aging the moment payment clears | Manually matching a bank deposit to an invoice |
| Automatic ledger posting | Records the payment against revenue and cash directly | A separate step to record payment in accounting software |
| Payment status | Shows paid, pending, or failed status on the invoice | Guessing whether a customer has paid yet |
| Partial payments | Applies a partial payment and leaves the remainder open | An all-or-nothing view of whether an invoice is settled |
How it works
From invoice to reconciled cash
- 1
Invoice is sent
The customer receives the invoice with a payment link already included.
- 2
Customer pays
They click the link and pay directly - no separate login, portal setup, or manual instructions needed.
- 3
Payment clears
Funds settle, and Fintra records the payment automatically against that specific invoice.
- 4
AR updates instantly
The invoice moves out of the aging report and off the collections track the moment it’s paid.
- 5
Cash reflects in reporting
The payment shows in cash position and forecasting without a manual reconciliation step.

Frequently asked questions
Does every invoice automatically include a payment link?
Yes, by default. Every invoice sent from Fintra includes a secure link the customer can use to pay directly, removing the need to separately communicate payment instructions or set up a portal login for each customer.
What happens when a customer pays online?
The payment is matched to the specific invoice automatically, posts to the ledger against cash and revenue, and clears the invoice out of AR aging - all without a manual reconciliation step matching a bank deposit to the right invoice.
Can a customer make a partial payment on an invoice?
Yes. A partial payment applies against the invoice balance, leaving the remainder open and still tracked in AR aging and collections, rather than treating the invoice as fully resolved until the full amount is received.
Does accepting online payments change how revenue is recognized?
No - recognition follows your revenue recognition rules regardless of payment method. Online payments affect when cash is received and AR clears, which is a separate question from when revenue is recognized on the P&L under ASC 606.
