Main Content
Why Use Link by Stripe on Squarespace?
Link by Stripe lets your customers save their payment details so they can check out faster next time. Instead of typing their card details every visit, they can use their saved Link account. It's particularly handy for repeat customers.
Setting up Link by Stripe
Here's how to turn it on:
- Go to your Payments Panel Log into your Squarespace account and head to Settings > Payments.
- Open Payment Settings Click 'Manage Settings' next to your payment processor.
- Find Payment Methods Click the 'Payment methods' tab.
- Turn Link On or Off Look for 'Wallets' and you'll see Link by Stripe listed. Toggle the switch to turn it on or off.
Making Checkout Easier for Customers
Once Link is active, customers will see an option at checkout to save their payment information to their Link account. This saves them time on future purchases since they won't need to re-enter their card details.
Quick tip: Link only works for one-time purchases, not subscription products. If your business relies heavily on recurring payments, you'll need other solutions for those transactions.
