Best practices

​
Title

When integrating Ivy’s payment method into your checkout, you have two main approaches to consider.

  • Approach 1: Use a neutral label
    • “Pay by Bank” - Standard term that clearly communicates the payment is processed through the customer’s bank
    • “Instant Bank Transfer” - Alternative label that emphasises speed, ideal when you also offer traditional bank transfers
  • Approach 2: Brand it as your own
    • Create a custom name using your brand (e.g., “{Brand name} Pay”)
    • This option allows full alignment with your existing branding

​
Subtitle

A clear subtitle helps customers understand the key benefits of this payment option.

  • Suggested implementation:
    • Subtitle: “Pay directly from your bank account — secure, instant, and no card needed”
    • Ensure the subtitle appears directly beneath your payment method title at checkout

​
Bank Logos

Show logos of popular banks to build trust and familiarity.

  • Suggested implementation:

​
Default positioning

Position Pay by Bank as the default and primary payment option.

  • Suggested implementation:
    • Place Pay by Bank as the first payment option in your list
    • Pre-select it by default if possible

Build trust by recommending Pay by Bank

  • Suggested implementation:
    • Add a “Recommended” label next to Pay by Bank
    • Use consistent styling with other UI elements in your payment flow

​
Educational tooltip

Add a tooltip icon next to “Pay by Bank” that shows key information on hover/tap.
