Without it, merchants handle collections in a separate tool, which breaks the experience and hands revenue to a third party. Pay In brings acceptance into the platform so merchants can complete transactions without handing off to a third-party tool. Partners control which methods are available and how they're configured. These guides cover each payment method and channel. Payabli's Pay In capabilities include: * Making sale transactions: either card-present with a device, via the API, embedded components, hosted payment pages, the virtual terminal in the UI, or via payment links. * Making recurring or scheduled transactions. * Saving payment methods for future use. This is also called "tokenization". * Invoicing customers to request payments. ## References These reference guides cover schemas, statuses, and error codes related to Pay In. * [Pay In
