FAQs
Here are some questions you may have:
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can I create Multiple Payment Links via API? | No. In order to create a payment link via API, you will need to enter the amount parameter (closed amount). As Multiple Payment Links can have an open amount, they cannot be generated via API. |
| When I tried to input the custom link, I got an error message “On-demand link is already used”. But, I have never used that link before. What happened? | It means that another merchant has used this same URL link before, therefore if you encounter this kind of error we suggest you use another custom link. |
| Can I customize the Customer Details fields on the Multiple payment link? | Yes, you can customize the existing field on the Settings > Checkout > Customer Details |
