  • Accepting payments without a website
  • recovering abandoned carts

📚 API Reference

Create Payment Link API - View complete documentation including all parameters.
 Once you have the payment_link URL from the response, you can share it with your customer through any channel:
  • Email: Send it in an invoice email.
  • SMS / WhatsApp: Send it as a text message.
  • Social Media: Share it in DMs.
  • QR Code: Generate a QR code for the link.
When the customer clicks the link, they will be taken to a secure EximPe payment page where they can complete the payment using their preferred method (Card, UPI, Net Banking).

​
Step 3: Track Payment Status

Since the payment happens on a hosted page, you need to know when the payment is completed. You can do this via: Listen for the PAYMENT_SUCCESSFUL webhook event to get real-time updates. 
{
    "event_type": "PAYMENT_SUCCESSFUL",
    "event_time": "2024-02-15 16:53:15",
    "version": "1.0",
    "sequence_number": "e40552bf-ed12-4f35-9a97-162d97e6fa34",
    "data": {
        "status": "captured",
        "message": "Payment successful",
        "mop_type": "upi",
        "order_id": "OD3376378679",
        "payment_id": "PR6938527534",
        "bank_ref_num": "OD3376378679-PR6938527534",
        "payment_completed_at": "2025-06-24T12:30:44.000000Z"
    }
}

2. Poll Status API

You can also periodically check the status of the payment link or the order associated with it.
