OneLink
OneLink lets you collect payments using a single reusable link. Use a fixed amount (e.g., tickets) or allow a customer-entered amount (e.g., donations). Each payment is separately authenticated, authorised, and settled.
OneLink
This streamlined approach simplifies the transaction process, offering flexibility for diverse payment scenarios. It also provides a clear, auditable record of each individual transaction, ensuring financial transparency and security.
- Fixed amount: Set a price customers can’t change (great for registrations, events, fees).
- Variable amount: Let customers enter an amount within limits you define (ideal for donations).
This streamlines collection across online and in-person scenarios while keeping the same secure hosted checkout.
Create a OneLink
Open OneLink
- Log in to the portal, go to Payments → OneLink.
- Click New to create a OneLink.
Configure channels
- Under Select channel, choose how you’ll send the link (Email and/or SMS).
- Outlet — Select from the dropdown.
If Email is selected: enter recipient Email address(es) and optional Order reference.
If SMS is selected: enter Country code, Mobile number, and optional Order reference.
Payment link details
- Select Transaction type and Currency.
- Set a Link expiry date using the calendar picker.
Fixed vs variable amount
- For variable amounts, toggle Editable Amount ON and set minimum and maximum values.
Message & send
- If sending by Email, add a short message and/or select an Email template (you can edit before sending).
- Preview the email (optional), then Send. The link appears in Manage payment links.
Popular use cases
- Event registration: Fixed per-ticket charge shared broadly.
- Charity & donations: Variable amounts within a safe min/max.
- Hospitality (brunch/iftar): Pre-payments for groups or per-person charges.
- Classes, workshops, memberships: Collect recurring or ad-hoc fees without building a checkout.
Use OneLink in person (QR)
Convert your OneLink to a QR code with any QR generator and display it on-site—ideal for donation boxes, event check-in, restaurant tables, or service counters. Customers scan and pay on their own devices; no extra hardware needed.
Tips & notes
- Branding & sender come from Configuration (logo, From address, T&Cs).
- Templates: Create reusable copy in Email templates.
- Expiry: Set a reasonable window (e.g., 3–7 days) and re-send if needed (the system creates a fresh link).
- SMS: For mobile-first audiences, consider Pay by Link via SMS.
- Social: To post or DM the link, see Social share.
Security reminder: never request card details by chat or email. Customers enter payment info only on the hosted payment page.
