Payment Links

A payment link is a shareable URL (e.g. checkout.noholdpay.com/donate-2026). Fixed-amount links spawn a new payment with source_type='link' on every visit and land the customer on the standard hosted checkout. Customer-entered and preset links show an amount step first and spawn the payment when the customer submits. Send the same link to a thousand customers and you get a thousand isolated payments.

List page

Sidebar: Payment Links. The list page shows your most recent 100 links per mode.

• Search by title, slug, public URL, or description.
• Filter with the Status dropdown: All, Active, Inactive. The filter follows the link's on/off toggle only. An expired or exhausted link keeps its toggle state, so it shows an Expired or Exhausted badge but still lists under Active unless you also deactivate it.
• Each row shows the link title with its share URL beneath it, the Price (or "any amount"), Uses (e.g. 18 of 20), the Status badge with a context line (e.g. last paid 2h ago), the Created date, and copy/open buttons on active rows.
• Top-right CTA: New link.

Bulk actions

Tick the row checkboxes to reveal:

• Activate (re-opens selected links).
• Deactivate (closes their share URLs until you reactivate them).
• Clear (deselect).

Confirmation dialogs cover both bulk actions explicitly. In-flight payments already spawned from a link keep working through a deactivation.

Create a link

A live Preview panel on the right summarises the link's configuration (title, public URL, amount, accepted methods, limits, redirects) as you type.

Amount modes

The Any amount switch on the create form picks the mode (off means Fixed amount, the default):

The amount, currency, and amount mode are fixed at creation and can never be edited. Changing them would silently re-price share URLs already in the wild. To change them, deactivate the link and create a new one.

Custom slugs

The Custom URL field in the Basics card lets you pick the slug for the share URL.

• 3 to 30 characters.
• Lowercase letters, digits, and dashes only.
• No leading or trailing dash.
• Reserved words (top-level dashboard routes, framework paths, single letters) are rejected.

Leave the field empty and the system auto-generates a 10-character random slug on save. The Generate button next to the field gives you a suggested random slug without saving.

The slug locks once the first payment spawns from the link.

Limits and redirects

In the Limits and redirects card:

Statuses

Each link surfaces one of four statuses:

Detail page

Opens at /payment-links/{id}. Top-right action buttons:

The page is organised as:

1. Header with the share URL, Copy and Open buttons, and the Accepting payments toggle.
2. Three stat tiles: Uses, Collected, Last payment.
3. Configuration card (price, slug, max uses, expires, created, redirect URLs, accepted methods).
4. Activity card with confirmed counts for the last 24 h, 7 d, and 30 d.
5. Spawned payments list. Each row links to the underlying payment.

Edit a link

Click Edit on the detail page. You can change:

• Title, description.
• Accepted chains and coins.
• Max uses, expires at, success URL, cancel URL.

The following are locked:

• Public URL (slug) once the first payment has spawned.
• Amount, Currency, and amount mode from the moment the link is created. To change them, deactivate this link and create a new one.

Public URL behaviour

When a customer visits the share URL of a fixed-amount link, the platform spawns a fresh payment and redirects to the hosted checkout. For customer-entered and preset links, the visit shows an amount step first and the payment spawns when the customer submits. If the link is Inactive, Expired, or Exhausted, the URL serves a closed-link page.

Webhooks

There are no link.* webhook events. Each payment spawned from a link fires the standard payment.* lifecycle events. The payload includes source_type: "link" and payment_link_id so your handler can branch.

See Webhooks for the full event list.
