Key Features
Every feature in Paythen exists for one of two reasons – to make it easier for you to offer and manage payment plans, or to help you sell more. Here are the most important ones.
Maximise sales with our Pay your way plan.
With a Pay your way plan like this, your customers can pay upfront or via a payment plan for the same product or service, and from the same easy link – while you get unified reporting and no extra admin.
Align payment plans to specific dates.
Let customers pay at a set frequency from when they sign up (eg: weekly, monthly, etc) with a standard payment plan or using our new date-based payment plans, get everyone to pay on the same pre-set dates.
This works well for events, travel, courses, and if you’re selling anything aligned to specific dates.
Here’s an example.
Payment plans that adapt to your business
Our payment plans support almost any business model – from events and travel through to services, courses, dental, high value items like jewellery, machinery, and much more. With four different payment plan types and lots of customization within each, you can offer payment plans that fit your business perfectly. And to keep things simple, you can even offer subscriptions and one-time purchases using Paythen.
Payment plan
Payment plans with weekly, monthly, or any custom billing intervals that suit your business. Useful for a range of businesses and business models.
Date-based payment plan
Everyone pays on pre-set dates regardless of when they sign up. Useful for events, travel and education businesses and if you’re selling anything tied to a specific date.
Wait for it payment plan
Offer layaway or lay-by plans that let customers pay off their plan, then receive their product or service. Useful for physical items, services, or anything with limited spots.
Pay your way plan
Encourage customers to pay in full or choose the payment plan option via the same payment plan link. Improve your cashflow while still giving your customers choice.
Get paid anywhere with easy payment links.
Each Paythen plan gets a payment link like this that works wherever your customers are – whether it’s email, Whatsapp or Insta. Or add it to your site in seconds.
Personalised self-serve pages. Less support, happier customers.
With self-serve links like this, your customers can see what they’ve paid, what they owe, repay early, change card info, get receipts and more – via a secure link they can access anytime. No logins needed.
All your payment needs covered in one place.
Payment plans, subscriptions, one-off payments, or a choice. We’ve got you covered for all types of payments and flexible customization options – setup fees, trial periods, custom billing intervals, branding, surcharges, and much more.
Fewer failed payments. Automated follow ups.
Customers get reminders before each scheduled payment and automated follow-ups if a payment fails. This reduces failed payments, chances of defaults, and eliminates manual follow-ups.

Discount codes let you create percentage or fixed amount promotions in seconds, across all Paythen plan types.
