Can I create a business Payment Link without a website?
Yes. The PayPal-hosted checkout can be shared by URL or QR code. Merchant eligibility and product availability still apply.
How to create a PayPal payment link for your business
Use PayPal’s Payment Links and Buttons area in an eligible business account to create a hosted checkout URL. Add the product and price, review the available methods, build the link and share it. No separate website is required.
Create the business checkout
PayPal’s current developer guide places the controls under Sales → Payment Links and Buttons. Add a clear product or service description, price and currency, then review the checkout and confirmation settings available to your account. Build the link and copy its public URL. Menu labels and eligibility can vary.
Check it before sending to customers
Open the public link from a normal mobile browser. Confirm merchant identity, product, price, currency and the actual displayed payment choices. PayPal’s business links can support cards and eligible wallets; do not describe them as universally PayPal-account-only. Guest availability and product options depend on the account and market.
Choose the right billing destination
Use PayPal.Me for a reusable public profile, a business Payment Link for a hosted offer, an invoice for a billing document, and a supported subscription product for renewals. If you need additional billing workflows or connected providers, compare PayRequest’s alternative using the link below. Track a successful receiving-account transaction before fulfillment.
Frequently asked questions
Is a PayPal business Payment Link the same as PayPal.Me?
No. PayPal.Me is a public profile link; business Payment Links are configured checkout destinations for an offer.
