# Payment Links

> Create a shareable link your customer can pay through, no integration required.

Payment Links let you accept a payment without writing any code. You create a link from the dashboard, share it with your customer, and they complete the payment on a lite-hosted page. Use Payment Links for one-off invoices, remote sales, or any case where a full checkout integration is more than you need.

## Create a payment link

1. In the dashboard, go to **Payment Links**, then select **Create Payment Link** (payment links are currently a single use).
2. Fill in the payment details:

| Field           | Required | Description                                                                                             |
| --------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Amount          | Yes      | The amount the customer pays.                                                                           |
| Currency        | Yes      | SAR is the current supported currency.                                                                  |
| Description     | Optional | Shown to the customer on the payment page.                                                              |
| Customer Name   | Optional | The name of the customer you're billing.                                                                |
| Customer Email  | Optional | The customer's email address.                                                                           |
| Customer Phone  | Optional | The customer's phone number.                                                                            |
| Link to Channel | Yes      | The channel the payment is attributed to. Payment links can only be linked to a Checkout channel.       |
| Link lifetime   | Yes      | How long the link stays payable: 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, or no expiry. Defaults to 30 days. |

3. Select **Create Payment Link**.

The link is created immediately. A confirmation dialog shows the payment URL with a copy button.

The channel you select determines the payment methods available to your customer and the hosted page styling.

## Share the link

Copy the link and send it to your customer. Anyone with the link can open the payment page and pay the specified amount until the link expires or you deactivate it.

## Manage payment links

The **Payment Links** page lists every link you've created. Open a link to view its details.

Each link shows a status. An **Active** link can accept payments. A link stops accepting payments when it expires or when you deactivate it.

From the details page you can:

* **Copy Link** to reshare the payment URL.
* **Deactivate** to stop the link from accepting payments.

The details page shows the total amount, the payment URL, and the following fields:
