Payment Links for the Moments an Invoice Doesn't Fit

Not every collection starts with an invoice. Sometimes you need a deposit before scheduling a consult. Sometimes a client wants to pay for an ad-hoc service. Sometimes you're collecting event registrations. Checkout links let you take money instantly without the overhead of preparing a full invoice.

Kantivo integrates with Stripe to create secure, branded checkout links. Set the amount (or let the payer enter their own), add a description, and send the link via email, text, or social. When someone pays, the transaction is recorded in your books automatically — no manual entry on your end.

How It Works

1

Create a Checkout Link

Type a description and amount. Pick a fixed price or leave it open for the payer to enter their own. Kantivo generates a unique Stripe-hosted payment URL.

2

Share the Link

Copy the URL and send it anywhere — email, text, social media, your own website. The link works on any device with a browser.

3

Customer Pays Securely

Your customer clicks the link and enters card details on a Stripe-hosted checkout page. PCI-compliant, mobile-friendly, no account required.

4

Payment Posts Automatically

The payment lands in your Kantivo ledger. Revenue recognized, bank deposit tracked, merchant fees calculated — all handled.

💲 Fixed or Open Amount

Set an exact price for a defined service, or leave the amount open so the payer can enter whatever they choose.

  • Fixed price for defined services
  • Open amount for tips, donations, or custom payments
  • Optional minimum amount on open links
  • Currency follows your company settings

🔒 Stripe-Backed Security

Every checkout link runs on Stripe's infrastructure. Card data never touches your computer or server.

  • PCI DSS Level 1 compliant
  • Accepts all major credit and debit cards
  • Apple Pay and Google Pay ready
  • 3D Secure authentication when needed

📤 Share Anywhere

Each link is a plain URL that works in any channel. Customers don't need to download an app or create an account.

  • Paste into any message
  • Embed on your website or landing page
  • Convert to QR code for in-person events
  • Drop into email marketing campaigns

📊 Payment Tracking

See who paid, when, and how much. Every checkout link payment flows into Kantivo's reporting layer.

  • Real-time payment notifications
  • Dashboard shows link performance
  • Automatic accounting entries
  • Merchant fee tracking and reporting

Common Use Cases for Checkout Links

Checkout links are versatile. The most popular ways businesses put them to work:

📋 Consultation Deposits

Send a payment link before scheduling. The customer pays upfront and you confirm the appointment once it clears. No invoicing overhead.

🎟️ Event & Class Registration

Collect registration fees for workshops, training sessions, or networking events. One link, unlimited payments.

🛠️ On-the-Spot Service Charges

Plumber finished the job? Consultant wrapped an advisory hour? Send a link from your phone and get paid on the spot.

💳 Balance Due Collection

Customer owes a remaining balance? Skip the invoice and send a direct payment link for the exact amount due. Faster for both sides.
