# Create a Payment Link

## Payment Link

Payment Link enables you to get paid without doing any integration and development. Embed Payment Link in emails/invoices/messages/short-links/QR codes and send to your clients to pay you.

### Generating Payment Link URLs Manually

You can easily generate payment links directly from the Merchant Portal.

- Navigate to Payment Links from the side menu.
- Click on “Create Link”.
- Fill in the required Payment Link details.

Once completed, your payment link will be ready to use.

👉 Note: You can create multiple payment links as needed.

In just 4 steps you can create the Payment link.

#### Transaction data

#### Client Data

This section can be completed either by you (the Payment Link creator) or by the client.

If you enable “Allow Client Edit”, the client will be able to fill in or update all fields themselves. In this case, you can leave the fields empty when creating the Payment Link.

👉 Tip: Use this option if you want the client to enter their own details during the payment process.

#### Advanced Settings

You can configure email notifications for each payment link to keep all parties informed.

**Admin Emails** All admin email addresses will receive a notification when a payment link is created.

**Recipient Emails** All recipient email addresses will receive a confirmation once the payment has been successfully completed.

👉 Example: If an admin adds admin@company.com and user@client.com

- The admin will be notified when the link is created.
- The user will automatically receive a confirmation once the payment is completed.
