# Collect table deposits, venue hire and sponsorship for your events with Vault payment links

Club operators, venues and festival teams take money that isn't a ticket: table deposits, hire fees, sponsor instalments, merchandise orders. A Vault payment link is a page the payer opens and pays on, and the money lands in your Vault balance, so you stop chasing bank transfers and matching references by hand.

Create a payment link from Vault for a VIP table deposit, venue hire, a sponsorship instalment, merchandise pre-orders or a group deposit for your event, share it or email it, and see how many times it was paid and what it collected, with the money going straight into your Vault balance.

For:  Collecting deposits and other payments around your events

Takes:  6 minutes

- [Select Create a payment link](#step-2)
- [Enter what the payment is for](#step-3)
- [Choose the amount](#step-4)
- [Enter the amount and currency](#step-5)

## Before you start

- You're an owner or an admin on the brand. Only owners and admins can create, send or turn off payment links.
- Your brand has an active Vault account. The money a link collects goes into your Vault balance in the link's currency.

1. ## Open Get paid

   Open **Vault**, then select **Get paid**. **Payment links** lists every link with its amount, whether it can be paid once or many times, its status and what it **Collected**.
          ![Ticket Fairy Vault Get paid page with a paid VIP table deposit link, merchandise pre-orders taking payments, a sponsorship link turned off and a group deposit that ended](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-vault-get-paid--payment-links.png)    Vault, Get paid.
2. ## Select Create a payment link

   Select **Create a payment link** at the top of the page.
          ![Ticket Fairy Vault Create a payment link dialog for a £500.00 VIP table deposit that can be paid once](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-vault-get-paid--create-link.png)    Get paid, Create a payment link.
3. ## Enter what the payment is for

   Enter a name the payer will recognise in **What is the payment for?**, such as VIP table deposit. The payer sees it at the top of the payment page.
4. ## Choose the amount

   Under **Amount**, choose how much the payer pays.

   - **Set amount**: Every payer pays the same amount, in one currency.
   - **Payer chooses**: The payer enters the amount on the payment page, which suits merchandise orders and group deposits of different sizes.
5. ## Enter the amount and currency

   For a set amount, enter the **Amount to pay**, then choose the **Currency**.

## A link where the payer chooses

With **Payer chooses**, the dialog asks for up to 10 **Currencies the payer can pay in** instead of an amount. This link for merchandise pre-orders takes pounds or euros and can be paid many times.

       ![Ticket Fairy Vault Create a payment link where the payer chooses the amount in pounds or euros, for merchandise pre-orders paid many times](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-vault-get-paid--payer-chooses.png)    Create a payment link, Payer chooses.

6. ## Choose how many times it can be paid

   Under **How many times can it be paid?**, choose **Once** for one deposit or one invoice, or **Many times** when everyone pays with the same link, such as table bookings or merchandise.

   **Note:** A link set to **Once** stops taking payments after the first payment and shows as **Paid**.
7. ## Add details, the event and an end date

   Optional: Open **More options** to enter **Details for the payer**, choose the **Event** the money is for, and set **When does it stop taking payments?** to **On a date** with the last day to pay.

   **Note:** Left as **When I turn it off**, the link takes payments until you turn it off. An end date can be up to a year ahead.
8. ## Select Create link

   Select **Create link**. **Your payment link is ready** shows the link with buttons to copy it, open it or send it by email.
          ![Ticket Fairy Vault Your payment link is ready for a £500.00 VIP table deposit, with Copy link, Open and Send](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-vault-get-paid--link-ready.png)    Create a payment link, the link ready to share.
9. ## Share the link

   Select **Copy link** and paste it into a message, an email or your booking confirmation. "Link copied" confirms it.

   **Tip:** To email it from your brand instead, follow Send a payment link by email below.
10. ## Check who paid

    Find the link in **Payment links**. Its row says how many times it was paid and what it **Collected**, and the money is in your Vault balance in the link's currency.

## Try these steps on your own event

Create a free account, build your event and follow the steps above in your own dashboard. It takes a few minutes and you do not need to book a sales call.

## Or have it done for you

Fai, the assistant inside your dashboard, can create a payment link with a set amount or one the payer chooses, list your links with what each one collected, email a link, and turn a link off or back on. She shows you the link's details and asks before each change. MCP and the command line have no payment link commands.

## Send a payment link by email

1. ### Select the send button

   On the link's row, select the paper plane button, which opens **Send the link by email**.

   **Note:** Only a link that is **Taking payments** can be sent.
          ![Ticket Fairy Vault Send the link by email dialog for the merchandise pre-orders link, with the payer's email address entered](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-vault-get-paid--send-link.png)    Get paid, Send the link by email.
2. ### Enter the email address

   Enter the payer's **Email address**, then select **Send link**. We email the link from your brand, and the payer pays on the page it opens.

Fai can email a payment link that is taking payments, after she shows you the link and the address and you agree.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Email the Vault payment link \<LINK NAME\> to \<EMAIL\>

## Turn a payment link off or back on

1. ### Select Turn off

   On the link's row, select **Turn off**, then confirm in "Turn this link off?". People with the link can no longer pay, and the payments already made stay in your balance.

   **Tip:** Select **Turn on** on a link you turned off to take payments with it again.

Fai can turn a payment link off or back on after she shows you which link and you agree.

### In your dashboard, with Fai

Turn off the Vault payment link \<LINK NAME\>, we've had enough deposits

## Questions you might have

What does the payer see?:  A payment page with your brand's name, what the payment is for, the amount or a box to enter it, and any details you added. They pay on that page, and the money reaches your Vault balance.

What do the statuses mean?:  **Taking payments** means people can pay. **Paid** means a link that can be paid once was paid. **Turned off** means you turned it off, and **Ended** means its last day to pay has passed.

Is it safe to share the link?:  Yes. The link opens only the payment page for that one payment, not your dashboard or anything else in Vault.

Why are the paid counts and totals missing?:  The list loaded without the payment details, so a note above it says the paid counts and totals are missing. The links still work, and **Refresh** brings the figures back after a minute.

Should I use a payment link or a Vault invoice?:  Use a payment link when the payer pays on the spot, such as a table deposit or a merchandise order. Use an invoice when a business needs an invoice with line items and a due date, as Invoice sponsors and partners for your event from Vault shows.

Why can't I create a link?:  "Only a brand owner or admin can create, send or turn off payment links." appears when your login is not an owner or admin of the brand. Ask one of them to create it.
