Stripe Payment Links
Stripe Payment Links allow you to collect payments by redirecting respondents to a secure Stripe Checkout page.
Simply create a Payment Link in Stripe, paste it into your QuipForm Payment field, and respondents can complete payment through Stripe's hosted checkout experience.
QuipForm does not process payments directly. Payments are completed securely on Stripe Checkout using your Stripe Payment Link.
How It Works
The payment flow is simple:
- Create a Payment Link in Stripe.
- Add a Payment field to your form.
- Paste your Stripe Payment Link.
- Publish the form.
- Respondents click the payment button.
- Stripe Checkout opens.
- The respondent completes payment on Stripe.
This allows you to use Stripe's secure payment infrastructure without needing custom payment integrations.
Creating a Stripe Payment Link
To create a payment link:
- Log in to your Stripe Dashboard.
- Navigate to Payment Links.
- Click Create Payment Link.
- Select or create a product.
- Configure pricing.
- Save the Payment Link.
- Copy the generated URL.
A typical Payment Link looks similar to:
https://buy.stripe.com/xxxxxxxxxxxx
Adding a Payment Link to Your Form
To use the link inside QuipForm:
- Open your form.
- Type
/. - Insert a Payment field.
- Paste your Stripe Payment Link.
- Customize the payment button text if desired.
- Save and publish the form.
Visitors will see a payment button that opens Stripe Checkout.
Common Use Cases

Sell digital or physical products directly from a form.
Event Registrations
Collect registration information before directing attendees to payment.
Consultation Bookings
Capture customer details before collecting payment.
Memberships
Accept membership or subscription payments through Stripe.
Service Requests

Best Practices
Collect Information Before Payment
Place your payment field near the end of the form so you can gather important information before redirecting users to checkout.
Use Clear Pricing
Make sure respondents understand:
- What they're purchasing
- The amount being charged
- Any recurring billing terms
Customize Button Text
Use action-oriented labels such as:
- Pay Now
- Complete Payment
- Purchase Access
- Register & Pay
- Continue to Checkout
Test Before Publishing
Always test your payment flow using Stripe test products or a low-value payment.
For the best experience, explain what happens after payment directly above the payment button.
