Add Category to Payment Link Donation?

[HistoryLover]

Hello,

Does anyone know how the donation payment links (the ones you make directly through the payment link interface, and allow for people to input a donation amount of their choice) are categorized? 

I'd like to set up a tour to be admission by donation, and while I can make an item for it, which I can then put into the correct category, going from the item interface forces me to put in fixed donation amounts. I'd rather let people chose how much to donate, but I can't find a way to tell square what category that should be placed in. 

I'd just like to be able to give the donation payment link a category, so it gets reported correctly, but I can't figure out how.

Hey @HistoryLover — thanks so much for hanging in there.

There currently isn’t a way to add a category to Payment Links. If you create a link directly from your Dashboard, it will let the buyer enter the donation amount they want — are you able to set it up that way? If not, this would fall under a feature request.

If you need anything else or want to explore other options, I’m here to help.
