linked2pay: The White-Label Gateway Behind Many Processor Brands, and How to Evaluate an Account on It

linked2pay is a white-label gateway and CRM sold to ISOs: cards, ACH, remote deposit capture, virtual terminal and invoicing. What that means for merchants.

Short answer

linked2pay is a white-labeled payment gateway and merchant CRM platform sold to ISOs and financial institutions, not to merchants directly. It reports 130,000+ merchants managed and 300+ partners. If your gateway carries your processor's name and offers cards, ACH and remote deposit capture in one browser terminal, there is a fair chance it is linked2pay underneath.

Features: virtual terminal for cards and ACH, customizable online payment pages, smart invoicing, payment links, text and email payments, Android wireless terminals for card-present, an API with webhooks, and partner-side onboarding, underwriting and risk tools.

Pricing is set entirely by the ISO that sold it. Evaluate a linked2pay account the same way as any reseller gateway: gateway fee, per-item, processing margin, ACH pricing and term on one page.

Many merchants have never heard of linked2pay and are using it every day. That is the point of a white-label platform: the processor’s logo goes on it and the merchant sees “our gateway.” This page explains what linked2pay is, what it does, and how to evaluate an account that runs on it.

What linked2pay is

From its site as of September 2026, linked2pay offers ISOs and financial institutions a white-labeled payment gateway and CRM:

  • Payment types: credit cards, ACH, remote deposit capture.
  • Virtual terminal described as a browser-based experience with automation, built-in compliance, flexible billing options and real-time reporting.
  • Online payment pages that integrate with existing software and can auto-populate amounts.
  • Card-present through wireless Android terminals.
  • Invoicing, payment links, text and email payments.
  • API and webhooks.
  • Partner-side CRM: sales team management, reporting, merchant onboarding, and a white-labeled due-diligence portal for underwriting.
  • Scale: 130,000+ merchants managed, 300+ partners, 99.9% uptime stated.

Sold through an ISO partnership program. Merchants do not sign up with linked2pay.

What that means for a merchant

Your relationship is with the ISO. They set the gateway fee, the per-item fee, the processing pricing, the ACH pricing, the contract term and the support experience. linked2pay supplies the software. Three consequences:

  1. Pricing is whatever your ISO decided. Two merchants on the same platform can pay very different amounts.
  2. Support quality is the ISO’s. The platform is stable at scale; whether anyone answers the phone is not linked2pay’s doing.
  3. Migration goes through the ISO. Stored card and ACH data can move to another PCI-compliant gateway, but the export request is made by the ISO on your behalf.

Where it is strong

Businesses that receive a mix of payment types benefit most: cards, ACH and scanned checks in one terminal with one report. Property management, HOAs and associations, professional services, B2B billers and nonprofits are typical. The invoicing and text or email payment tools are competent for those uses.

Evaluating a linked2pay account

Same checklist as any reseller gateway:

LineGet in writing
Gateway monthly and per-itemNumbers, not “included”
Processing modelInterchange-plus with the markup stated, or the flat or tiered rate
ACHFlat per item, or percentage with a cap
Remote deposit capturePer-item and any scanner fee
PCI, annual, statement feesEach one
TermInitial term, auto-renew, early termination fee

Then total last month’s gateway invoice and processing statement and divide by volume. The method is on the statement guide.

Alternatives with the same shape

NMI and USAePay (partner-sold, cards and ACH, broad integrations), accept.blue (ISO-sold, modern interface, invoicing, Level 3), Fluidpay (partner-only, dual pricing across channels). All white-labeled to some degree; all priced by the reseller. The gateway matters less than the terms and the person you call. Our terms: month to month, gateway and processing on one bill, interchange-plus, and a cell number.

On a processor-branded gateway and not sure what you have?

Text a photo of your gateway invoice and processing statement. We identify the platform, total the two bills, and quote gateway plus interchange-plus processing on one page.

Frequently asked questions

What is linked2pay?
A white-label payment platform that ISOs and financial institutions brand as their own. It provides the gateway (cards, ACH, remote deposit capture), a virtual terminal, online payment pages, invoicing, payment links, text and email payments, an API, and a CRM for the partner's sales and onboarding. Merchants get it through their processor.
How much does linked2pay cost?
linked2pay publishes no merchant pricing. Your processor sets the gateway fee, per-transaction fee, processing rate, ACH pricing and contract term. Compare the all-in effective rate on your statement rather than the gateway line.
Is my processor's gateway actually linked2pay?
Look at the virtual terminal URL, the footer of the payment page, or the API documentation your developer received. White-label platforms usually leave a trace in one of those places. Or ask your processor directly; it is not a secret.
Can I leave a linked2pay-based gateway and keep my stored customers?
Stored card and ACH data can be exported to another PCI-compliant gateway on request through your processor, encrypted to the receiving gateway. Because the account is the ISO's white label, the request goes to the ISO, and their cooperation is part of the migration.
What is linked2pay good at?
Combining cards, ACH and remote deposit capture in one interface, which suits businesses that receive a mix of checks, bank transfers and cards, such as property managers, associations, professional services and B2B billers. The partner-side tools also mean ISOs on it can onboard quickly.
