How to create a payment link in Stripe
Follow these 4 simple steps to get up and running.
Turn on Payment Links
Open the menu (profile icon, top left), tap Settings, and switch on Payment Links under Payments. You only do this once.
Add products to the sale
On the home screen, tap the products your customer is buying. Payment links are built from products only, so a typed amount can't become a link. No products yet? Add them in the app or your Stripe Dashboard.
Tap … next to Next, then Payment Link
Tap the … button on the right side of Next and choose Payment Link. On Create Payment Link, turn on any options you need, like Collect tax or Allow promo codes, then tap the checkmark.
Share the link
The app shows the new link's URL. Tap View Payment Link to open it. To send it, open the Stripe Account menu (grid icon, top right), go to Payment Links, pick the link, and tap Share or Copy URL. Payments land in your Stripe balance.
