Generic Payments

ChargeDesk can generate pages which allow your customers to pay you a flexible amount which they can fill in on the payment page. You can also use a card collection page to save customer card so they can be later charged.

Link to your Generic Payment or Card Collection Page

You can add a link anywhere on your site directly to your payment page.

<a href="https://chargedesk.com/{company_id}/pay">
    Make a Payment
</a>

There are several formats for this URL depending on which landing page you want to take the customer to.

• https://chargedesk.com/{company_id}/pay
  Let the customer make a payment
• https://chargedesk.com/{company_id}/card
  Collect the customer's card for future payment

You can change default fields on this page by using the following parameters in the URL e.g.

https://chargedesk.com/{company_id}/pay?amount=123&currency=USD

The following options are available;

• email
  The customer's email address will be pre-filled on the payment form.
• currency
  The currency for this payment. This must match on the currencies supported by your account. If not provided, your default currency for your company will be used.
• amount
  The payment amount will be pre-filled on the payment form.
• amountHidden
  Will hide the amount field. Please note that this is an atheistic change and doesn't stop the customer from changing the page url to enter another payment amount. If you need to ensure a payment is a fixed amount, you should use a payment request or product payment page.
• description
  The payment description ('What is this payment for?') will be pre-filled on the payment form. The description field must be enabled in your company settings.
• descriptionDisabled
  Will disable the description field from being edited. Please note that this is an atheistic change and doesn't stop the customer from changing the page url to enter another description. You can hide the description completely or make it optional on your Payment Page settings.

If there are any other options which would be useful to you, please email us and we'll be happy to help.
