Create a payment link in Stripe
A Stripe payment link is a web address for one item that opens Stripe’s own payment page. You make it in your Stripe dashboard in a few minutes: add the item and price, choose a few options such as quantity, shipping address, a sales limit and tax, then copy the link and paste it into your dashboard with us.

Make the link
- Sign in to your Stripe dashboard and open Payment Links. Click +New (or the plus sign, then Payment link).
- Choose an existing product, or click +Add a new product. Give it a name, a price in US dollars, and a photo if you like, then click Add product.
- Set the options below.
- Click Create link.
Options worth setting
- Let customers adjust quantity: in the product section. Lets a shopper buy more than one. You can set a minimum and maximum.
- Collect customer addresses: in the options section. Choose billing and shipping addresses if you send items by mail, then pick the countries you ship to. You can add a shipping rate here too.
- Limit the number of payments: turns the link off after a set number of sales. Use it when you only have a few of something. You can also write the message shoppers see once it’s sold out.
- Collect tax automatically: uses Stripe Tax, which is a paid Stripe product with its own set-up. Leave it off if you don’t use Stripe Tax. Whether you need to charge sales tax is your decision; see Refunds, disputes and tax.
See Stripe’s payment link options for the rest.
Copy the link
Open the payment link’s page in Stripe and click Copy. The link starts with https://buy.stripe.com/. Paste it into your dashboard with us: Add a buy button to your site. Stripe’s sharing help has more.
Test it
Open the link in a private browser window and check the name, price and options. Don’t pay with a real card unless you plan to refund yourself.
Questions
Can I change the price on a Stripe payment link later?
Not on the same link once it has a price. Make a new link with the new price, paste it into your dashboard, and update the price shown on your site at the same time.
