The “Request Payment” feature exists primarily for invoicing purposes where it may be necessary to bill for a product or service that does not have a static price, or the final sales price is unknown.

“Request Payment” can also be utilized for billing for excessive server time for webhosts, or for services that need to be billed in addition to the product/pricing structure hard-coded via 2CO’s product listing.

You can use our Request Payment Options to have an invoice emailed to your customer. The email will have a link to a payment form where the buyer can make payment to you.

You can find information on this in the Admin under the section:

That’s all there is to it. Once the customer completes the order with their payment information, the sale will be logged to your account and email notification sent to you and the customer.
