How do I request payments?

You can use the Shieldpay Service to request payments from a third party by using the Request Money button on the Shieldpay dashboard, when you're logged in to your account. You simply need to provide the email address of the person you'd like to send you money.

To request money, there is a minimum request amount of £3.00.
