Modernising Legal Payments: How Law Firms Use Shuttle Payment Links to Improve Collections

Flexible

Our Payment Links are different

Shuttle Payment Links are not limited like others. We recognise that businesses need flexibility and control to improve their payment collection processes. Our payment links are not tied to any one payment provider, they can let the customer define the amount or you can be very specific about what and how much they’re for.

Use your Payment Gateway

Connect from 30+ Payment Providers. This means you can use your preferred provider with the rates that you have agreed. No more 5% fees just because you’re using a hosted solution that doesn’t support your preferred payment gateway.

Use Multiple Payment Gateways/Methods

Get paid via PayPal, Buy Now Pay Later, Financing or Bank to Bank. Payment links that are from your payment provider are limited to that provider and their features.

Not tied to any product, invoice or amount

Use one link for everything or organise your links by creating many for each use case. Other providers make you create a product or invoice just so you can create a payment link. That’s missing the point.

Pre-authorize, capture payment or save a card

Take a payment now or just authorize the card or save the payment method for later. Other payment link products don’t empower the seller, they are merely designed for a simple use case.

Modernising Legal Payments: How Law Firms Use Shuttle Payment Links to Improve Collections

In legal practice, professionalism and trust are everything—but the way many law firms collect payments hasn’t kept up. Traditional invoicing, slow bank transfers, and manual chasing often create unnecessary friction in the solicitor–client relationship.

That’s why forward-thinking firms are turning to Shuttle Payment Links—a modern, client-friendly way to get paid faster, with less effort.

The Problem: Legal Billing Is Often Slow and Stressful

Whether you’re advising on property transactions, employment disputes, commercial contracts, or litigation, the legal work itself is complex enough. But billing adds its own layer of complexity:

  • 🔁 Hourly billing and milestone-based fees mean invoices go out at irregular intervals

  • Delayed payments impact your firm’s liquidity and growth

  • 📞 Chasing clients takes time and creates discomfort

  • 💼 Professionalism matters—and outdated payment methods can undercut your image

Clients are increasingly accustomed to seamless, digital experiences in every aspect of life. Sending a PDF invoice and waiting for a BACS transfer no longer meets those expectations.

The Solution: Shuttle Payment Links for Legal Services

Shuttle Payment Links are simple, secure URLs you send to clients via email, SMS, or WhatsApp. They click, pay online, and receive a receipt—no downloads, no accounts, no bank details required.

Why this works for law firms:

  • Faster payments from clients with minimal admin

  • 💳 Professional and secure—fully PCI-compliant

  • 🧾 Flexible billing—works with hourly, fixed-fee, and staged payments

  • ⚖️ Improves the client experience while reducing your DSO

  • 🏷️ Custom-branded payment pages maintain your firm’s credibility
