Instant Sharing, Instant Payments: Payment Links

The Payment Link is a no-code tool created by Nimbbl to collect payments from your customers. Just create the link on the Nimbbl dashboard and share it with them on their preferred channel. The link can be shared through Nimbbl on SMS and Email or you can simply generate the link and share it where you want. You can also add multiple products to the link and these are displayed to the consumer when they open the link.

You can set an expiry time after which the customer will not be able to make a payment using the link.

How to Create?

TIPS TO BUILD TRUST
  • Customising your link with your brand logo, brand URL and colour theme.
  • Adding 'Terms & Conditions' and 'Refund Policy'. Your customers can view these links below the 'Pay Now' button.

Creating via API

For businesses that require more control or wish to automate the process of generating payment links, Nimbbl offers APIs that allow you to create and manage payment links programmatically. This method is ideal for integrating payment link generation directly into your application or system, providing a seamless experience for both your business and your customers.

To learn more about integrating payment links via API, refer to our Payment Link API documentation.
