Mobile payments are part of the Service Lane OS.

Pay by text is not a bolt-on. It rides the same conversation as the status updates, the video, and the estimate. The advisor finalizes the RO, the link goes out in the thread the customer is already in, and the payment is recorded against the RO. One screen, one conversation, from drop-off to paid.

From finished RO to paid, in one text

From finished RO to paid, in one text

1

Finalize the RO the way you always do.

Close the repair order in your DMS as usual. No new tool, no double entry. The invoice total and RO number are already there.

2

Send the secure link by text.

One click sends the customer a secure payment link in the same conversation. The amount and RO reference fill themselves, so there is nothing to retype.

3

They pay from their phone.

Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Affirm financing, on their own time, from the lounge or before they even come in. Bigger jobs get approved when they can be paid over time.

4

The payment records against the RO.

The transaction is recorded against the right RO with the amount, method, and closure. On CDK it writes back to your DMS automatically, so your accounting office reconciles without re-keying.

Everything mobile payments need

Send, get paid, reconcile, all from the tools your team already uses.

Pay by text link

Send a secure payment link by SMS in one click. The customer pays from their phone, before pickup, after hours, or from the waiting lounge.

Apple Pay & Google Pay

Customers pay with the wallet already on their phone, plus every major credit card. Fewer taps, faster checkout.

Affirm financing

Buy Now, Pay Later on the payment link. Expensive repairs get approved when they can be paid over time, and you get paid in full right away.

Automatic payment messages

Confirmation texts send themselves when a payment clears, so the customer and the advisor both know it is done.

Payment reminders

Nudge customers who have not paid yet, without a phone call.

Real-time payment view

See every request and its status instantly. Know what is paid, pending, or overdue at a glance.

Deposits for cars & parts

Take a deposit by text for a special-order part or a vehicle, without the customer coming in.

Refunds with permissions

Issue refunds in the app only, with team permission control, so nothing happens off the books.

CDK writeback

Every transaction syncs to CDK with amount, method, and closure, so reconciliation is accurate without re-keying.

Automated daily reports

Daily deposit and transaction reports land on their own for clean bank reconciliation.

Optional surcharge

Apply a transparent, compliant service fee to cover processing costs, shown to the customer before they pay.

Fraud protection

Automatic customer validation flags inconsistencies before a payment processes, so you catch fraud before it costs you.
