Generate a Payment Link

Available via: Dashboard and API

Use the Inflow Dashboard to create a shareable payment link that redirects customers to an Inflow-hosted checkout page.

How to Create a Payment Link

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.

What Happens Next

When a customer opens the link, they are redirected to the Inflow hosted checkout page where they can complete their payment using the available methods (Open Banking or Card).

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

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "currency": "EUR",
    "products": [{ "name": "Premium Plan", "price": 2500, "quantity": 1 }]
  }'
