Acceptance Language and Terms & Conditions Functionality

Pre-requisite

The Acceptance Language field must be filled.

If the Acceptance Language field has a value, the following will occur.

  • A checkbox will appear on the PayLink checkout.
  • The text entered in the Acceptance Language field will be the checkbox label.
    Yes Checkbox_2

If the Acceptance Language field has a value AND the Terms and Conditions field contains a URL, then the checkbox label will be hyperlinked with the URL.

BUT if the Acceptance Language field is Blank, the checkbox and the accompanying hyperlinked text WILL NOT be visible.
No Checkbox_1


No Checkbox_21

Image Size Considerations

When adding a background image to PayLink using the Background Image (URL) field, consider how the image will appear in PayLink.

  • We recommend using an image file no larger than 1MB.

Keep in Mind:

  • The image you provide will cover the whole page.
  • All images have a certain ratio (height and width). You may need to adjust your image outside of Salesforce based on the viewport of the devices being used.
  • If your image includes text, make sure it is not cropped on different devices (desktop, tablet, mobile). You may need to edit your image outside of Salesforce to reorient the text.
