you need to create the Product/Price before hand if you're creating a Payment Link via the API. See https://stripe.com/docs/api/payment_links/payment_links/create#create_payment_link-line_items-price

I see. I thought link was supposed to allow our user to easily retrieve their payment information assuming they've used links before. Does link also include shipping information?

can you share a screenshot of what you mean by customizing the items?

#

when you mentioned Stripe link payments, my assumption was that you were referring to Payment Links, but it looks like you're referring to something else instead

This one:
It seems line items in the links can be customized

#

the screenshot is of Payment Links. I think there might be some confusion here between Link (the payment method), and Payment Links ( a shareable URL that will take your customers to a hosted payment page )

#

https://stripe.com/docs/payments/link - if the customer has used Link (the payment method before), it does allow customers to easily autofill address and payment details

Faster checkout with Link

Let your customers check out faster with Link.

Yes, this seems to be what I needed. Can I use this to share the payment information of the customer to different vendors in my platform?

For context, my platform have many different vendors who have their own stripe connect standard account set-up. However, a problem comes in where the user will need to enter their credit card information each time for different vendors because payment intents can only be done if a customer is registered with a business. We, the platform only take a portion of this as a platform fee, but the charge is in the name of the vendor.

We want to avoid that user experience where they have to input their card details for every single vendor.

Can this link do this for us?

yep, it can if the customer has registered/used Link before

Wonderful! Can you give me the link to the docs where I can start testing out this implementation?

And also, if just use link as a means of retrieving credit card information if the user has used this before, does that mean the user needs to be registered in our platform? or can I do this even with a guest checkout?

Hi @stoic trout I'm taking over this thread

stoic trout Feb 5, 2024, 4:50 AM

#

Sure, no problem

blazing latch Feb 5, 2024, 4:51 AM

No, they don't need to register a Stripe account to use link
