Among all the tasks that solopreneurs and small business owners have on their to-do lists, No. 1 is getting paid.

GoDaddy recently announced the launch of a new payment capability for our Canadian customers who use Online Store and Managed WooCommerce Stores. They now have a secure payment processing capability in GoDaddy Payments, complete with the Poynt Smart Terminal. 

In addition to in-person payments, GoDaddy Payments makes it possible to take online and remote payments with its Pay Links and Virtual Terminal features. No website or online store required! 

2 more ways to get paid with GoDaddy Payments

When you sign up for GoDaddy Payments, you have two additional ways to accept all major debit and credit cards: Online Pay Links and Virtual Terminal. 

With Online Pay Links, you can accept online payments from anyone — even without a website. 

You can create a payment link in minutes and share it with your customers anywhere they do business — on social media, via text message, email and more.  

These links take customers to a secure checkout page to make their payment.

You enjoy the same level of transaction security you’d get if you had an Online Store with us. GoDaddy follows strict PCI security standards and uses advanced encryption to hide sensitive information in Online Pay Links, keeping your business and your customers safe.  

While you don’t need a freestanding website to use Pay Links, you can still customize it to fit your business branding. 

Just add your product image, company branding and logo to your checkout page.

The pricing for this service is a standard fee of 2.7% + 0 cents CAD per transaction. There are no setup fees or long-term contracts.

With Virtual Terminal, you can take over-the-phone or remote payments quickly and securely using your computer, smartphone or tablet.
