Send or copy a payment link
Use a payment link when a customer should pay after an order is created in the back office or when staff need to resend a link for an open invoice.
The available action depends on order state, invoice state, open amount, and payment provider setup.
Before you start
Confirm:
- the customer email address is correct
- the order or invoice still has an open amount
- the order is not canceled, expired, or already fully paid
- the payment provider supports the required payment-link flow
- the customer should receive a link by email, or you only need to copy the link
Open the order
- In the back office, open Sales > Orders.
- Search for the order number or customer name. For a ticket or invoice number, use the global Search box in the sidebar and open the related order.
- Open the order and review the order overview.
- Check the payment state, invoice state, and open amount before sending anything.
Choose the right action
| Situation | Use this action |
|---|---|
| The order has open items and no finalized invoice | Use the available payment action on the order. |
| The order has an invoice with an open amount | Open the invoice or invoice section and use the invoice payment link action. |
| The customer says they did not receive the email | Confirm the email address, then use the send action again or copy the link into a support reply. |
| The order is already paid | Do not send a new payment link. Send confirmation or tickets if needed. |
| The order is canceled or expired | Do not send the old link. Create the correct replacement order or follow your cancellation process. |
Send or copy the link
- From the order or invoice, choose Send payment link email when the customer should receive an email from KORONA Event.
- Choose Copy payment link when you need to paste the link into a separate email, support ticket, or approved message.
- Record a note on the order when your team needs an audit trail.
- Ask the customer to complete payment before the reservation deadline if one applies.
- After payment, refresh the order and confirm the payment state changed as expected.
Expected result
The customer receives or opens a payment link for the correct open amount, completes payment through the provider, and the order and invoice update to the expected states, for example the invoice changes to Paid.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to check |
|---|---|
| Send payment link email is missing | Open amount, invoice state, order state, provider setup, and whether the action belongs on the invoice instead of the order. |
| Link opens but payment methods are missing | Provider configuration, payment method eligibility, customer country/device, and whether the method is supported for payment links. |
| Customer paid but order still looks open | Provider dashboard state, pending review, delayed payment methods, callback delays, and whether another order was paid instead. |
| Customer received multiple links | Check order history and invoices before canceling or resending. Make sure staff are not using an old support reply. |
| Link is expired | Confirm reservation deadline, invoice state, and whether a new order or invoice must be created. |
