uShip Payments: Submit Payment Code via Text Message (SMS)
As we continue to improve our uShip Payments solution, we've just added a convenient new feature allowing service providers to submit a payment code by text message (SMS).
When the shipping customer chooses to pay online using uShip Payments, they receive a payment code that allows the service provider to release payment on delivery.
For example, if a service provider needs to submit the payment code "12345," you would text the following to USHIP (87447):
Paycode 12345
The service provider then receives a text validating the code, and funds are released to their account. This is an excellent way for service providers to confirm they have received the correct payment code while they are still with the shipper.
To enable the Payment Code by SMS Feature, please take the following steps:
- Enter your mobile number in Communication Preferences
- Verify your number and click "Save Mobile Number" on our SMS Learn More page.
Payment codes can only be submitted from the mobile number that you provide.
We're working hard to improve uShip for both service providers and shipping customers. As always, we welcome your feedback!
