Sending a payment link on Shopify is an easy way to accept payments from customers who are not browsing your online store. You can use a payment link for a variety of purposes, such as:
- Selling products or services outside of your Shopify store.
- Collecting payments for invoices or subscriptions.
- Accepting donations.
Here's how to create and send a payment link on Shopify:
Step 1: Create a Payment Link
- Log in to your Shopify admin.
- Go to Orders > Payment Links.
- Click "Create payment link".
- Choose a product or service to add to the payment link.
- Enter the quantity and price.
- Add a description.
- Click "Create payment link".
Step 2: Share the Payment Link
Once you have created your payment link, you can share it with customers through email, social media, or messaging apps.
Example:
You can copy the link and paste it into an email to your customer. You can also share the link directly through a social media post or message.
Step 3: Track Your Payment Links
You can track the status of your payment links in the Orders > Payment Links section of your Shopify admin. This will show you which links have been paid, which are pending, and which have been declined.
Tips for Success:
- Make your payment link clear and easy to understand. Use a descriptive title and description.
- Include a call to action (CTA) in your payment link. Encourage customers to click the link and make a purchase.
- Use a payment gateway that is reliable and secure.
By following these steps, you can easily create and send payment links on Shopify to accept payments from your customers.
