Sharing your Pay Link 🔗

After generating your Pay Link with BoomFi, you can share it with your customers through multiple channels:

📘

Here are a few common ways to share your Pay Link:

• Email: Copy and send the Pay Link directly to your customers via email.
• Website or Blog: Embed the Pay Link in an appropriate section on your website or blog.
• Social Media: Share the Pay Link on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter.

Pre-filling the Customer's Data in the Pay Link

When you share a Pay Link with customers, you can improve their experience by pre-filling their name or email, eliminating the need for them to re-enter information you already have. This can be achieved by adding this information as query parameters of the pay link. The example link below shows you how to pre-fill both name and email:

https://pay.boomfi.xyz/Pr1l6WoErz?name=Tamara&[email protected]

Connecting a customer to the Pay Link

When sending a pay link to a customer, you have the option to make a connection of the pay link with your customer through this customer's id. You can incorporate their id at the end of the pay link's URL, adding the parameter customer_ident. Below, you can see an example:

Original pay link URL

https://pay.boomfi.xyz/Pr1l6WoErz

Pay link URL with customer's id

https://pay.boomfi.xyz/Pr1l6WoErz?customer_ident=<YOUR_CUSTOMER_ID>

This will update the unique customer ID in the web app, which you can access through webhook calls.

Redirecting after a successful payment

You can customize any BoomFi pay link to automatically redirect your customers after they complete a payment. This is possible by incorporating a redirect URL as a query parameter in the original pay link URL. To perform this, follow the example below:

📘

If no redirect_to is set at the pay link level, the one provided in the query parameter will be used.

https://pay.boomfi.xyz/2bm4YuFSaw011jTWbevVPA3137q?redirect_to=<REDIRECT_URL>

As the example above shows, a redirect_to query parameter can be added to allow BoomFi to know where to redirect the customer after the payment.

Skip Redirect Delay

By default, BoomFi applies a 10-second delay before redirecting the customer. To skip this delay and redirect instantly, add the skip_redirect_delay=1 query parameter to the URL:

https://pay.boomfi.xyz/2bm4YuFSaw011jTWbevVPA3137q?redirect_to=<REDIRECT_URL>&skip_redirect_delay=1

Retrieve Payment Information

When redirecting to the specified URL, BoomFi adds a pid query parameter to the URL. This parameter contains the payment ID, allowing you to retrieve the payment details via the API. For more information, see the Get Payment by ID API.

Example redirect URL with pid parameter:

https://my.redirectUrl.com?pid=<PAYMENT_ID>

Changing the amount and currency of a pay link

BoomFi gives you the flexibility to change the amount and/or currency of a paylink on the go.

👍

Use cases for this feature:

• Allow your customer to pay in another currency.
• Give customers the ability to top-up their balance/wallet.
• Tipping or donations are to be added to the final amount.

To use this feature, you will make an API call to the Generate Variant URL endpoint and add the following query parameters:

• amount: The new desired amount of the paylink.
• currency: The new currency the pay link will be paid with.

You can also add the following to edit your pay link URL further:

• customer_ident: A customer's unique identifier to be connected to the generated pay link.
• redirect_to: a URL to redirect the customer upon successful payment.
