What this covers

  • The payments dashboard and payment statuses

  • Creating a pay request, single payment or payment plan

  • The payment portal and telephone payments

  • Sending via Legl versus a shareable link, and reminders

  • Transfers and reconciliation

  • Refunds

  • Batch reminders for aged debt


Key takeaways

  • Create a pay request with the client's name and email; send it via Legl to switch on automatic reminders, or copy a shareable link.

  • The payment portal is a one-to-many link for invoices or your website, with optional matter-reference formatting for reconciliation.

  • Telephone payments let you take card details on a client's behalf, in person or over the phone, without a card terminal; pause call recording for PCI compliance.

  • Paid means funds are held by Legl; transferred means they have reached your account, with transfers twice daily at 9am and 4pm Monday to Friday.

  • Refunds (full or partial) are processed in one place by admins, and batch reminders let you re-send outstanding requests in bulk.
