Every Studio workspace comes with a Payment Link — a single page where anyone can enter an amount and pay you. It's the simplest way to collect a one-off payment without setting up an invoice, donation form, or event.
When to use it
- Custom amount, no context. Someone owes you $50 and you just need a way to collect it.
- In person. Print a QR code on a poster, business card, or receipt — people scan and pay on their phone.
- Text or email. Send a link with a pre-filled amount: “Pay $25 here → acme.studiofoyer.co/payment?amount=25”.
- Bridge cases. When you don't want to build a whole donation form or event, but still need to take a payment from this person right now.
What it is (and isn't)
The Payment Link is separate from your donations, invoices, and events — each of those still has its own dedicated flow with their own forms and receipts. The Payment Link is the fourth, simpler option: a catch-all "send us $X" page.
- Payments are not tax-deductible. Receipts go out as standard payment receipts, not donation acknowledgments.
- Payments don't appear in Donations, Donor profiles, or year-end statements.
- Every payment does appear in Transactions, alongside donations, invoice payments, and event tickets, so your unified ledger is complete.
Your Payment Link URL
Your link lives at /payment on your workspace's public subdomain. Two examples:
- Church / ministry:
your-slug.foyer.church/payment - Everyone else:
your-slug.studiofoyer.co/payment
The URL is the same for every workspace — just replace your-slug. Append ?amount=2500 to pre-fill any dollar amount.
Stripe required
The page is always live and shareable, but it can only accept charges once your workspace has connected Stripe. Until then, visitors see a "not yet connected" message and the form is disabled. See Connecting Your Stripe Account.
