Payment Link

Create and share payment links for quick, one-time payments without API integration.

What is a Payment Link?

A Payment Link is a shareable URL that lets you collect payments without any coding or API integration. Create a link in the GCC dashboard, share it with your customer via email, SMS, or WhatsApp (domestic) or email (international), and they complete payment on PayGlocal’s secure hosted checkout page.

How to Create a Payment Link

1. Navigate to Payment Links

   Log in to the GCC dashboard and click on Payment Links in the left sidebar under Payment Products.

   
2. Access Payment Links Page

   You’ll see the Payment Links management page where you can view all your existing links and create new ones.

   
3. Create New Link

   Click the + Create payment link button in the top right corner to open the payment link creation form.

4. Fill Payment Details

   Complete the payment link form with the following information:

   
5. Generate the Link

   After filling all required fields, click the Create payment link button at the bottom of the form.

6. Share the Link

   Once generated, the system will:

   • Display the Payment Link ID (PLID) and shareable URL
   • Automatically send the link to the customer’s email and/or mobile (based on your selection)
   • Allow you to copy the URL and share it through any other channel

   Customer Notifications:

   • International Customers: Notifications are sent via Email only
   • Domestic Customers (India): Notifications are sent via both Email and SMS/WhatsApp

   This ensures customers receive timely updates about their payment links and transaction status through the most appropriate channels based on their location.

7. Track Status

   Monitor payment attempts, link status, transaction details, and customer information in real time from the Payment Links dashboard.

Payment Link Status

Your payment links can have the following statuses:

Status	Description
Active	Link is live and ready to accept payments
Transacted	A successful payment has been completed using this link
Exhausted	The link has reached the maximum of 10 payment attempts
Expired	The link’s expiry time has passed
Disabled	You manually disabled the link from the dashboard

Customers can attempt payment on a Payment Link up to 10 times. After 10 failed attempts, the link status automatically changes to Exhausted and cannot be used anymore. Create a new payment link if needed.

Customer Experience

When a customer receives and clicks on a payment link:

1. Link Opens: The customer is directed to PayGlocal’s secure hosted checkout page
2. Information Review: Customer reviews the payment amount, description, and merchant details
3. Payment Details: Customer enters their payment method details (card, UPI, net banking, etc.)
4. Authentication: For card payments, the customer completes 3D Secure (3DS) verification on the issuer’s page — an extra check to confirm the cardholder. For some domestic flows, an OTP may also be required. Together, these steps help prevent fraud on card transactions.
5. Confirmation: Customer receives instant confirmation of payment success or failure
6. Receipt: PayGlocal sends a payment receipt to the customer’s email/mobile
