What is a payment link?
A payment link is a secure web address you send by email or text that opens a hosted checkout page for a specific amount. Customers pay with a card or wallet on any device, and you never handle their card details. Payment links work well for invoices, deposits, and remote sales without a full online store.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- No website or hardware required.
- Card details are entered on the provider’s hosted page.
- Useful for deposits, invoices, and pre-arrival charges.

FREQUENTLY ASKED
The questions worth asking.
Are payment links secure?
Links lead to a hosted payment page, so card details are entered with the provider rather than shared with you.
Do customers need an account?
Usually not. They open the link and pay with a card or supported wallet.
Can links connect to my accounting software?
Some providers offer integrations. Confirm availability for your software.
