Creating a Payment Link

Available via: Dashboard and API

How It Works

Inflow allows you to create reusable or one-time payment links that redirect your customers to a hosted checkout page.

These links are ideal for:

Selling digital or physical goods and services
Accepting payments without building a storefront
Collecting support or contributions

Step-by-Step Guide

In your Inflow Dashboard, go to Product catalog → Payment links and click Create payment link. You can also use + → Payment link in the top bar.
Add one or more products from your catalog, or click Add new to create one, and set their quantities. The first product sets the link's currency.
Optionally, give the link a name and an expiry date, and choose its options: Price includes VAT, Save payment method and Redirect after payment.
Click Create link. The link's page opens.
Copy the link, or its QR code, and share it via email, social media, messaging, or on your website.

See Payment Links for every option.

Managing Your Links

From the link's page in Product catalog → Payment links, you can:

Edit link to change its name, expiry date and options
Deactivate or Activate the link to control its availability
Archive or Delete a link you no longer need
See its Recent payments, and click View all for every payment made through it

Creating Links via the API

You can also create payment links programmatically using your private API key:

curl -X POST https://api.inflowpay.com/api/link \
  -H "X-Inflow-Api-Key: inflow_prod_your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "currency": "EUR",
    "products": [{ "name": "Product", "price": 2500, "quantity": 1 }]
  }'

Field	Type	Required	Description
`currency`	string	Yes	`EUR`, `GBP` or `USD` — the currency the link settles in
`products`	array	Yes	List of products with `name` (string), `price` (number, in cents), `quantity` (number)
`sourceCurrency`	string	No	Price this link in another currency: `products[].price` are then read as minor units of it and converted at the live mid-market rate — see Pricing in a Local Currency
`status`	string	No	`enabled` (default) or `disabled`
`sessionCustomization`	object	No	Custom checkout appearance (`bgColor`, `fontColor`, `logoUrl`, `merchantName`)
`isVatIncluded`	boolean	No	`false` (default): prices are tax-exclusive, tax is added on top. `true`: prices include tax
`defaultBillingCountry`	string	No	ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country pre-filled at checkout (VAT recomputed accordingly)
`statementDescriptor`	string	No	Bank statement descriptor (max 11 characters)
`returnMode`	string	No	Post-payment screen: `DEFAULT`, `APP_RETURN`, or `APP_INSTALL` — see Mobile Apps
`appStoreUrl`	string	No	App Store listing URL, shown when `returnMode` is `APP_INSTALL`
`playStoreUrl`	string	No	Google Play listing URL, shown when `returnMode` is `APP_INSTALL`

Prices are in cents. For example, €25.00 = 2500.

Pricing in another currency. Add sourceCurrency and send your prices in that currency's minor units — 50.00 TRY is 5000. We convert at the mid-market rate, with no conversion fee charged to you, and store the result in currency. See Pricing in a Local Currency.
