Sometimes you don't need a store or an integration — you need a link you can send. Here's how reusable payment links let you charge a fixed price or take any amount, with nothing to build.
Not every sale comes through a shopping cart. You quote a client over email. You sell a one-off on social media. You take a deposit, a membership, a custom order. For all of that, wiring up a full store integration is overkill. You just need a way to say "pay here" — and a payment link is exactly that.
A payment link is a short, shareable URL that lives at /link/ your-slug. Open it and it starts a fresh crypto checkout every time, so the same link works for one customer or a thousand. Put it in an email, a DM, a printed QR code, a "buy now" button on a page you don't otherwise want to turn into a store. There's nothing to host and nothing to maintain.
Links come in two flavours, and the difference is just who decides the amount:
You can also pin a link to a single coin if you want every payment in, say, USDT — the checkout skips the coin picker and routes straight to that asset. Leave it open and the buyer chooses from the full set of supported coins and networks.
From your dashboard, create a link, give it a title your customer will recognise on the checkout page, choose fixed or open, optionally pin a coin, and copy the URL. That's the whole job. When someone pays, it behaves like any other CryptoPayr payment: the same hosted checkout, the same locked exchange rate, the same signed webhook to your systems if you've set one up, the same settlement into your balance.
Reach for a payment link when:
And when you do want it to look like part of your site, a link is one step from a styled button — the pay-with-crypto button guide walks through it. Either way, you're collecting crypto without building a thing. Create an account and make your first link.
