Option 1: Pay Now (instant checkout 💸)

Think of this like Venmo. When a buyer claims something, they fill out your Thryft Ship form with the item + price, and pay right there. At the same time, their shipping info gets sent to you. Boom. Done. One step instead of two.

Option 2: Pay Later (open bags 🛍️)

If you let customers “keep a bag open” and pay at the end, you can use our Pay Later feature.

This basically gives you two links to choose from:

• Checkout link — forces a customer to check out immediately.
• Form only link — saves their items/info (like adding to a cart) without charging them.

How the Pay Later flow works

1. They fill out your form only link each time they claim something (ex: $8 sweater, then later $20 tops).
2. No charge yet — it just saves their info + items.
3. When they’re ready to check out, you send your checkout link, and it automatically adds everything up.

Sweater – $8
Tops – $20
Total = $28
    

No math, no chasing. Just one clean checkout at the end.

The Best Part? You Choose ✨

You decide whether customers pay instantly or at the end of their bag. Either way, it’s faster, cleaner, and keeps everything organized in your Thryft Ship account. So next time you’re wondering “but when do they pay?” — the answer is simple: whenever you want them to.
