Introduction

Payment Link enables merchants to accept payments by simply creating and sharing a link to customers via email, messaging apps, social media, or any online platform — no website, app, or coding required. Payment Link can be generated through 3 platforms:

  1. Social messaging app via WhatsApp

Link Types

Single Payment Link is used to collect one-time or recurring (partial) payments from a specific customer. Once full payment has been made, the link can no longer be used to accept payments and becomes inaccessible. It is ideal for sending invoices for products or services sold to individual customers.

Single Payment Link cannot be reused after payment completion, but you can duplicate and edit the link for other customers.

Multiple Payment Link is used to collect several payments using the same link. It is ideal for businesses that sell identical products or services to multiple customers.

The link remains active and reusable until it reaches its specified expiration date or transaction usage limit. Merchants can configure a transaction limit per link or allow unlimited transactions based on their business needs.

Order Types

Amount & Description: Merchants create a Payment Link by entering the payment amount and a description of the product or service. Customers simply review the preset information and complete the payment without modifying any details.

Customer Info Types

Collect Customer: Merchants can specify required customer details such as name, email, telephone number, and address. Customers input this information before completing their payment. This method is ideal for merchants who need customer data for transaction tracking or record keeping.

Select Customer: Merchants can select from previously registered customers or add new customer information manually when creating a Payment Link. This option is suitable for invoicing or billing scenarios where the merchant manages a customer database and needs to associate transactions with specific customers.
