3. Integrate the Payment Gateway: Depending on your website platform, you may need to install a payment gateway plugin or use built-in integration options to connect your website to the payment gateway.
4. Create a Payment Link:
• Log in to your payment gateway account and request payment link creation.
• Configure the payment link by specifying the payment amount, item description, currency, and other relevant information.
5. Generate the Payment Link: After configuring the payment link, the payment gateway should provide you with a unique URL or code snippet.
6. Embed the Payment Link on Your Website:

Depending on your website platform, you can add the payment link in different ways:

• For HTML Websites: Paste the payment gateway link URL or code directly into your website's HTML code where you want the link to appear.
• For Content Management Systems (CMS): Use a plugin or module provided by your payment gateway to add the payment link to your website. Many CMS platforms also offer integration options in their settings.
7. Test the Payment Link: Before going live, test it to ensure it correctly redirects users to the payment page and functions as expected.
8. Publish the Payment Link: Once you've tested the payment link and are satisfied with its functionality, publish it on your website as a button, a text link, or within product listings, depending on your design preferences.

Following these steps to link payment gateways to websites, you are not just simplifying the checkout process; you're inviting customers to experience the ease and convenience of doing business with you. Start boosting your online sales today!
