Create Payment Link

POST 

/payment-links

This endpoint creates a payment link and a QR code. The payment link can be used to redirect customers to a payment page, while the QR code can be scanned for quick access to the payment.

important

In case of payments to different target merchant accounts in the same marketplace, the target merchant accounts references should be provided by merchant to their dedicated Product Solution Specialist.

info

Financial institution's risk management is applicable on storing and verifying payment options, even though no charge is made at that point in time. Therefore, your consumer's personal information is already required within this initialization request.

info

Please note that if you opt to use the SmartPay default success page, and in case the payment option chosen by the end consumer is 'Pre-payment' or 'Pay Upon Invoice', the transactionReference would be displayed on the success page. The transactionReference is the transaction identifier, that must be used by the end-customer, as a reference/usage (Verwendungszweck), while initiating their bank transfer.

In case you are using your own success page, then this information can be retrieved from the success handler.
