Payment Link

[OlynTaylor]

I am sending out an invoice from my CRM with icons for payment options, Square, CashApp, Stripe, PayPal...  Each icon needs a link to be able to pay me.  Such as   http://CashApp.com/MyUserName  Where would I find that in my Square account?

Thank you!

Hi @OlynTaylor!

Apologies for the delay in getting back to you on this, and welcome to the community. 

From your Square Dashboard, can enable Square Payment Links to allow your customers to purchase directly from an item checkout page without creating a full, ecommerce website with Square Online.

You can then copy the link to send to your customers through messaging, email, marketing campaign, social media page, or blog. Based on what you’ve said, I presume this link would also be sufficient to link to the icon on your invoicing tool. 

To create a payment link from your online Square Dashboard:

1. From your online Square Dashboard, go to Payment Links > Create link.
2. Under Choose purpose, select either Take a payment, Sell an item, Sell an event or class, or Accept a donation.
3. Enter a name for your link to be displayed to your customer. If you’re selling an item, select the item from your Item library, or create a new one.
4. Enter in the amount you want to charge, or allow the customer to set the price.
5. Choose a Frequency if prompted to accept recurring payments.
6. Add a description (optional).
7. Add an optional description. The description for each payment link has a 400 character limit. Note: When creating a new link for a new product in your item library, you can add a brand new description. This description will sync back to your item library for future use. For an existing item in your library, you can use your pre-existing description or create a new description to overwrite the previous one. Managing descriptions is currently only available in the online Square Dashboard.
8. Customize the checkout screen: add custom fields or enable tipping.
9. Customize the confirmation screen: enable redirect to a website of your choice after checkout.
10. Select Save.
11. Select Copy link to share the link anywhere.

You can learn more about creating, managing and sharing Payment Links, here. 

It’s worth keeping in mind that Square Payment Links are only available for domestic sales. If you’d like to sell online internationally, it would be best to take a look at building a Square Online site.

Hope this helps, but if you have any questions just let me know!
