payment portal

Online checkout interface

A payment portal is a website or digital interface where users submit payments, typically for bills, services, or purchases.

The term emphasizes the gateway function—you pass through the portal to complete a transaction: Log in to the payment portal to pay your utility bill.

Most businesses and institutions now direct customers to online payment portals rather than accepting checks by mail.
