Invoice first, then the pay-now path
Clients should see what they are paying for before they open Checkout. The invoice PDF carries line items, tax, terms, and due date.
Stripe invoice payment link
Pair the invoice with a Stripe pay-now link clients understand.
A Stripe invoice payment link works best when Checkout sits next to the invoice record—not as a bare URL. Build the invoice, email the PDF, and let clients pay online in one clear request.
Stripe Checkout handles card payment
EasyPayRequest uses Stripe Checkout for the online payment step. Standard Stripe card processing fees apply and are charged by Stripe.
One request, not two disconnected messages
Send the polished PDF and the payment link together so the client does not have to match a bare URL to an old email thread.
Before you send the pay-now request
- Confirm invoice number, amount, and due date before sending.
- Include the PDF or invoice summary next to the Stripe pay-now link.
- Use reminders when the balance is due or overdue.
- Keep paid and unpaid status visible so follow-up stays organized.

What is a Stripe invoice payment link in this workflow?
It is a Stripe Checkout URL attached to an invoice payment request so the client can pay by card after reviewing the invoice details.
Does this change my Stripe account settings?
No. This page explains the product workflow: create the invoice in EasyPayRequest, send the request, and let clients pay through Stripe Checkout. It is not a Stripe configuration guide.
Are there Stripe fees?
Yes. When clients pay online, Stripe charges standard card processing fees. Those go to Stripe, not to EasyPayRequest.
Can I send the invoice without a payment link?
You can, but clients often ask how to pay next. Pairing the PDF with a pay-now path usually reduces follow-up.
