  • A SmartPay Link page will be displayed with your SmartPay Link. This link can be placed on your website, email signature and/or be sent to the borrower directly. Once a credit report is pulled using this link, the user will be notified of the credit file # and will have access to the borrowers signed credit authorization form as well.
