Collection Overview

Understand the inbound payment options NadaPay supports and when to use Checkout, payment links, or deposit instructions.

Prerequisites

Decide whether the payer should complete a hosted checkout flow or send funds using account funding instructions.

Overview

Collection covers inbound money movement into NadaPay-powered flows. Use Checkout when a customer needs to pay from a product, invoice, donation, or booking page. Use deposit instructions when a payer or operations team needs funding details for a bank or wallet transfer.

Checkout / Payment Link → Customer pays in hosted flow
Deposit Instructions → Payer sends funds using provided account details
