Checkout Links

Generate direct checkout URLs for products, invoices, and custom amounts

Overview

Checkout links are URLs that take customers directly to a payment flow. PayRequest offers several types of checkout links depending on your use case.

Types of Checkout Links

Payment Page Links

Your payment page is always available at:

https://payrequest.me/[your-handle]

You can pre-fill amounts and customer details using dynamic URL parameters:

https://payrequest.me/[your-handle]/25.00
https://payrequest.me/[your-handle]?amount=25&name=John&email=[e-mail]

See Payment Page Dynamic Links → for full URL parameter documentation.

Smart Links

Branded, reusable URLs with built-in analytics:

https://payrequest.me/[your-handle]/summer-sale

Smart links provide permanent URLs, QR codes, payment limits, delivery options, and conversion tracking.

See Smart Links → for full documentation.

Product Links

Direct links to specific products in your shop:

https://payrequest.me/shop/[your-handle]/product/[product-id]

Or via payment page with product parameter:

https://payrequest.me/[your-handle]?product=[product-id]

Invoice Payment Links

Every invoice includes a unique payment link that customers can use to pay. These are automatically generated and included in invoice emails.
