Summary
The Softrip Direct Unique Link to Pay is an inclusion that is offered to any customer who is integrated with the Softrip Payments Platform.
This option provides our customers with the ability to send a payment link to their contacts or passengers on the fly and serves as an alternative process to collect payments rather than pushing a reservation through a queue.

Scenario Passenger A has contacted ABC Tour Operator to create a reservation. The sales agent at ABC Tour Operator has completed the reservation for Passenger A, and now Passenger A wants to pay immediately. Instead of waiting up to 15 minutes for the new reservation to process through one of the queues in Softrip, the sale agent at ABC Tour Operator can access a link through the “Actions Menu” and send a link for the customers to make a payment on the reservation immediately. |
Setting up the queue
In order for the Payment Link process to work, users will need to set up the following:
Payment link queue:
Setting up a queue through Operations → Res queues provides users with the ability to:
Set/Control the Correspondence type on the queue
Personalize/customize the email correspondence
Track the history of the communication through Reservations History
Softrip suggests setting the correspondence type to the “lead passenger” on the queue.
