Text to pay payment links

Payment links take a customer straight to a secure checkout page, so they can pay without a full website or a manual invoice. You can send a link by text message, email or any messaging app.

For a local service business, this makes it easy to take payment for a service, a product or a one-time offer right after you talk to a customer. Customers can pay right away from a single link, with no complex checkout to work through.

Key steps

• Go to Payments and click Payment Links in the top navigation.
• Click Create New Payment Link.
• Enter the product or service name, the price, whether the payment is one-time or recurring, and an optional description.
• Save the link. A unique URL is created automatically.
• Copy the link and send it to your customer by SMS, email or chat.

The customer clicks the link and pays on the checkout page.

Good to know

You can reuse a payment link unless you set it for one-time use. Depending on your setup, you can also update a link's details after you create it. Use clear names and accurate prices so customers know exactly what they are paying for. Test the link yourself before you send it.
