Checkout links
Share a link that opens Checkout for the items you choose.
A checkout link is reusable. Each visit starts its own checkout, so you can post one link on your site, in an email or in a chat and every customer who opens it pays separately. A customer who comes back to the link before finishing picks up where they left off.
Create a link
Start from any of these:
- On Payments, click New payment, then Create checkout link.
- On a product’s page, choose Create checkout link from the product’s menu. The link starts with the product’s default price.
- In a product’s Prices, choose Create checkout link from a price’s menu. The link starts with that price.
Then:
- Under Items, add the prices and quantities the customer buys. You can mix one-time and recurring prices. All recurring prices must bill on the same period.
- Under Checkout, choose the options you need:
- Start with a free trial: shown when an item is recurring. Set the trial length in days.
- Allow discount codes: customers can enter a discount code. Not available with a trial.
- Collect shipping address
- Redirect after payment: customers are sent to your URL once they’ve paid.
- Click Create link.
Bias copies the link to your clipboard. Save it somewhere: the dashboard doesn’t list checkout links after they’re created.
What customers see
The link opens Checkout with your branding and the items and quantities you chose.
A link with a recurring price starts a subscription when the customer pays. They agree to the renewal terms at checkout, and with a trial the first charge happens when the trial ends.
Links created in a sandbox work only with test payment methods.
