PayItLink.com - Request Payments Through PayPal Easily

If you have been looking into alternative ways of requesting payments through PayPal, then this new service is there to fill in that gap. In general terms, it will let you create what is termed a “Pay It” link which is something akin to a receipt including your PayPal e-mail along with a description of the product that is being sold, or the service which is rendered. The final piece of information it contains is the price itself and the currency in question.

What is this good for? Well, for starters it lets you make request without having to log into your PayPal account, and to share the request form through every social channel – Twitter, blogs, IM… As a result, it can be said that those who are interested in a quick ecommerce solution that focuses only on the aspects that really matter are going to be interested in such an application.

Note that the site also includes a section named “Ways to use Pay It Link”, and that section is actually open to user submissions. If you can think of a use that is not already featured there, do let the programmers know.

“Pay It Link is a web-based service that makes requesting money via PayPal™ easy. Now you don’t have to log into your account to use the request money feature. Simply enter your PayPal™ email address, a description, the price and click submit. We’ll provide you with a short URL that you can share via email, instant message, Twitter, or any method that allows a link”

It is an interesting and more concise way of arranging online payments.
