Payment link FAQs

Why do I need payment links?

They’re an easy way into ecommerce and remote channels — accept secure online payments without building a full storefront.

How do I create one?

In the GooPay app or dashboard: Payment links → Create, add amount and description, then share the URL. Or call the API with an Idempotency-Key.

Are payment links safe?

Yes. Customers land on a secure checkout with SCA. Card data is handled in our PCI environment — not on your device.

Start sending payment links

Same account as your card machines and SoftPOS. One balance, one report.
