Create Installment Link

Learn how to create installment payment links using Amwal's platform, including integration methods and best practices.

📌 Installment Link Integration

Easily generate an invoice link using the Create Installment Link endpoint. Share this link through SMS, email, or web redirects.

This approach is perfect for businesses without an online store that still want to offer payment or installment options.

  1. Installment Link Flow: Create a payment link using the "Create Installment Link" endpoint. Distribute it to customers via SMS, email, messaging apps, or embed it on your website. After payment, your backend will receive a notification through a callback.

  2. Custom Integration Flow: Utilize Amwal’s endpoints to integrate Amwal as a payment option within your platform. Customers are redirected to Amwal’s installment link and then returned to your portal for order confirmation or failure handling.
