What is a payment link

When a hosted payment page is enough and how it differs from a particular invoice.

Updated:

A payment link opens a hosted page describing the purpose of payment and available transfer options. You can send it in email or a messenger, or place it on a website. This approach does not require building your own checkout interface and server integration.

The recipient describes the product or service and configures the amount and payment options. The payer opens the page, checks the details and sends from their wallet. Opening a link or scanning a QR code does not move funds or confirm payment by itself.

In Cryptanio, the public page uses addresses prepared for the project and available payment methods. Before sharing, check that the link reaches your page, the purpose is clear and the recipient and amount match your agreement. The payer must use the displayed network, asset and additional routing details. Account for network fees separately.

A shared link can be reused, so its name is not a unique order number. Automatic customer-to-purchase matching and access delivery need an explicit invoice relationship and result verification through the API or a webhook. Voluntary support with a freely chosen amount uses the donation workflow.

Verify receipt and state before fulfilling the order. A customer's screenshot is not verification. Asset conversion and refunds are separate actions; creating a link does not perform them automatically.
