### What is Link?

Link is a secure payment feature powered by Stripe that lets you check out faster across thousands of websites. If you're seeing your saved payment details at checkout, you've previously chosen to save them with Link on another website that uses Stripe.

\~50% of customers opt to use Link to pay when transacting with RaffleLink

### How You Got Link

* Link only appears if you've previously opted to save your payment details during checkout on another website using Stripe
* When you first saved your information, you would have:
  1. Checked a box to save your payment details
  2. Verified your phone number with an SMS code
  3. Agreed to Link's terms
