Set up default payment link settings

Set up default payment link settings that apply whenever a user creates a payment link in your HubSpot account and create standardization across your payment links. For example, you can configure settings to automatically create new deals, customize checkout page text, and allow buyers to use discount codes. You can update individual payment link settings when creating or editing payment links.

Before you get started

Understand requirements

Before collecting payments using payment links, you must set up one of the following payment processing options:

• HubSpot payments: HubSpot's payment processing option, available to companies based in the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom. Available with Starter, Professional, or Enterprise accounts.
• Stripe as a payment processing option: use Stripe for payment processing in HubSpot. Available internationally with some exceptions. Stripe payment processing is available for all subscriptions.

1. In your HubSpot account, click the settings icon in the top navigation bar.
2. In the left sidebar, navigate to Objects > Payment Links.
3. To create a new deal for each payment link purchase, under Deals, toggle the Allow payment links to create new deals switch on. Learn more about how payment links create and associate deals.
