How to Use Stripe Payment Links
Payment link is a Stripe feature that allows you to sell online easily. You can create payment links with a few clicks and share easily with your customers to accept payments. When someone follows a payment link, they will go straight to the Stripe payment page. This makes the checkout process faster and easier for customers without you having to worry about coding.
If you wish to integrate Stripe payments links with our plugin you can follow this method.
1. Create a Payment Link
Log in to your Stripe account dashboard and navigate to the Payment links page (Payments > Payment links). Select an existing payment link or create a new one (by selecting an existing product or adding a new one). You can create payment links for one-time or recurring subscription payments.
2. Use the Payment Link in a Shortcode
Add the following shortcode to a post/page to create a button with the payment link.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345"]
Replace the value of url with your payment link url.
Shortcode Parameters
Stripe payment link shortcode currently supports the following parameters:
button_text
The text displayed inside the button (optional). The default is “Buy Now”.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" button_text="Pay Now"]
button_image
If you want a custom image to act as the button you can use the button_image parameter instead (optional). The default is a plan button with the text “Buy Now”.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" button_image="https://example.com/wp-content/uploads/pay-now-button.png"]
target
You can specify whether the payment link button should open in a new tab (optional). By default this parameter is not set.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" target="_blank"]
class
Custom CSS class for the button (optional).
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" class="btn"]
Multiple CSS classes can be added in a space-delimited format.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" class="btn btn2 btn3"]
prefill_wp_email
If you would like the email address of a user to be automatically prefilled and passed to Stripe when they are logged in to WordPress, you can add the “prefill_wp_email” parameter for it.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" prefill_wp_email="1"]
lock_prefill_wp_email
This is an alternative to prefill_wp_email. It makes the passed email address uneditable on the Stripe payment page.
[wp_stripe_checkout_payment_link url="https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345" lock_prefill_wp_email="1"]
Custom Button/Link Integration
If you have a custom button/link that you wish to integrate with our plugin and Stripe payment links, you can do so by adding “?client_reference_id=wpsc_payment_link” to the original payment link url.
https://buy.stripe.com/live_6gPE4jw7dMbUKdd3345?client_reference_id=wpsc_payment_link
Please note that our add-ons will not work with this custom button/link integration.

Stripe Email Receipt
Stripe can automatically send a receipt to your customer via email after completion of a purchase. All that is required for this option is the email address of the customer at checkout. The plugin will collect the email address entered in the simple pay form and notify Stripe so a receipt is automatically sent to the customer upon purchase.
Stripe Customer Portal
Stripe customer portal is a Stripe-hosted portal that allows your customers to manage their subscriptions and billing details themselves. The easiest way for your customers to access this portal is through a customer portal link that you can generate from your Stripe account dashboard.
How to Activate Stripe Customer Portal
1. Go to Settings > Billing > Customer portal from your Stripe account dashboard.
2. Click Activate link.
You can add the customer portal link to your website or send it to your customers via email.

Hello! In the function wp_stripe_checkout_process_order there is a code for sending to email.
And in the function wp_stripe_checkout_process_session_button there is no code for sending to email.
Although I use the shortcode wp_stripe_checkout_session. Will sending email work in test mode? Thanks for the answer!
@Victor, Email messages are sent in test mode as well.
Hello. Letters in test mode do not arrive. I use the shortcode wp_stripe_checkout_session. The settings for sending letters are enabled.
What can you advise? Thank you!
Maybe in the settings I should specify Stripe Webhook Signing Secret for sending mail? Can you write in more detail where to get it? Thanks!
Stripe Webhook URL (The URL of your site where Stripe will send notification of an event. Learn how to configure it here.)
I haven’t set this up. The new Stripe interface doesn’t have a Webhook page anymore. Can you please tell me how to set this up? Maybe that’s why email isn’t being sent?
Everything works great! I needed to set up a hook. Thank you!
Orders are not listed in my case.
@Akshay, With the debug option enabled, you will be able to monitor backend activities.
Hi, First of all thanks for the plugin I’ve been using it for some time and it’s great. However, I’m trying to give my clients a free trail with no card details required. This is an option in Stripe. The problem is this option is enabled in Stipe the plugin reports “FAILURE :Payment method could not be found. This notification cannot be processed.” Is there anything I can do at the plugin or Stripe webhook end to stop this error. Thanks!
@Richard, Thanks for using our plugin. The plugin only tries to verify parameters that are required to create an order. Please use the contact form on the site so that we can check the full log.
OK Thanks, I’ve sent you the log via the contact form.
Is this plugin is still being developed or updated? Documentation or even setup options do not reflect what’s on the Stripe at the moment?
For example there are no “Test Secret Key” and “Test Publishable Key” in the Developers>Api section, there are “Standard Keys” and “Restricted Keys” , or for example there’s no Settings > Billing > Customer portal ..
Also I don’t see the option to add custom code for subscription trial, for example when I want to give user 2 weeks of free trial
e.g. –subscription-data trial_period_days=14
@Slavomir, The names are still the same under “Standard keys”. To view other API keys, you will need to switch to test/sandbox mode.
Hello,
Thank you for this amazing plugin, i have one question, is this plugin sends email in test env i setup the webhooks and the paymentlink, in the logs i see that the endpoint was triggered after a successful transaction but no email sent nor for the customer nor the notification email for me. is email is working in test mode?
Thank you!
@ayb, Emails are sent in both live and test modes. You can use the contact form on our site to share log data.
