Using Online Pay Links

Generate and share a customized Online Pay Link to accept payment for anything you like. The link creates a webform that customers can use to make payments easily. You can also create Online Pay Links from the GoDaddy mobile app or within your Websites + Marketing website by editing the action button.

1. Sign in to the Dashboard where you manage GoDaddy Payments (use your GoDaddy username and password). If this is your first time creating a pay link, select Get Started and follow the provided tutorial.
2. Select Pay Links.
3. On the Links tab, select Create Pay Link.
4. Fill in the Title and Description fields.
5. Under Image, select Upload image to add a JPG or PNG image file.
6. Enter the Price you want to charge.
   • To enter a fixed amount, type any price of $1 or more.
   • To let your customer set their own price, turn on the Allow customer to set a price toggle.
   • To have your customer choose from a list of options, select Add Option, and then add up to four additional prices. If you’d like, you can enter a Title for each price.
7. Under Payment Methods, select the payment options to be included on the pay link. You can choose credit/debit card (includes Google Pay and Apple Pay) and/or ACH Bank Transfer.
   Note: Learn more about transaction fees associated with GoDaddy Payments. If you upgrade your plan to Invoicing and Pay Links Plus, you'll enjoy the lower fees for ACH transactions with a $10 fee cap. If you have Rate Saver enabled, surcharges will be applied to credit card transactions.
8. Adjust the Advanced Settings, if applicable:
   • Notes: Turn on Make Notes Required to prevent payments without transaction info. Your customer fills out this field when they submit payment.
   • Tips: Turn on Ask customer to add a tip to enable tips. (You can adjust tip options in your general GoDaddy Payments settings.)
   • Tax: Turn on Add Tax so you can track taxes when using Online Pay Links. Add a Tax Name, choose if you want to enter it as a Percent or a dollar Amount and then enter the value under Rate. The tax you add will be reflected in your reports.
   • Billing and shipping addresses(premium plan required): Turn on Collect customer’s addresses to add a customer billing and/or shipping address field to the pay link. You can make these required or optional.
9. Under Custom Link, enter alphanumeric characters to customize the URL for your pay link. The words you enter will appear at the end of the URL.
10. Select Create Link to finish.
11. Use any of the following methods to share your Online Pay Link:
    • Select Copy Link to create a link that you can share with others.
    • To post the link on social media, select the social media outlet where you’d like to share.
    • Select Download to download a QR code image that you can save, share or print. Customers can scan this QR code and pay you directly.
      • Select Download branded QR code for a branded, customized image featuring the QR code. The template is customized in the Settings tab.
      • Select Download QR code only to download the QR code by itself with no customization or branding.
    • Below Send Text Message, enter your phone number and select Send Link.

Note: Each time a customer makes a payment with an Online Pay Link, you’ll receive an email that includes the amount of the transaction, the customer’s name and any notes the customer added.
