Post Payment & Pay for me | Prestashop Module

With Post Payment & Pay for Me, customers can return to an existing unpaid order and complete the payment without creating a new order.

The module can also generate a secure, shareable payment link that can be sent to another person. The recipient can open the link and complete the payment for the selected order through the available payment methods.

This creates a smooth payment workflow for situations where the original customer is unable to pay immediately or wants someone else to pay for the order.

Why Use Post Payment & Pay for Me?

The module adds flexibility to the payment lifecycle by separating order creation from payment completion. Instead of losing a potentially valid order because payment was not completed immediately, merchants can give customers another opportunity to finish the transaction or allow another person to pay securely on their behalf.
