Create a Payment Link in Square

Button names below are as Square shows them on November 11, 2026. Square’s menus differ a little by account; its payment links help is always current.

Make the link

Sign in to your Square Dashboard. Go to Payments & orders (on some accounts Payments & invoices or Payments), then Payment links.
Click Create link, choose Sell an item, then Continue.
Enter a title, choose a one-time payment, and add a description if you like.
Pick an item from your item library or create one with a price. Upload a photo if you want one on the checkout page.
Click Save.

Settings worth checking

Quantity and stock: shoppers can choose how many. To stop selling when you run out, track stock for the item in your Square item library.
Shipping or pickup: item links can offer shipping, pickup or both. Shipping rates are set up under fulfillment in your Square settings.
Tax: Square can work out online sales tax from your location and the buyer’s for item links. Whether you need to charge it is your decision; see Refunds, disputes and tax.

Square’s payment link settings help and payment links FAQ cover the rest.

Copy the link

On the Payment links page, click Share next to your link and choose the option to copy it. Paste it into your dashboard with us: Add a buy button to your site.

Test it

Open the link in a private browser window and check the name, price, photo and shipping choices.

Questions

Can I limit how many people buy through a Square link?

Square ties this to the item’s stock. Track stock for the item in your Square item library and check Square’s help for how it applies to payment links.
