Mollie launches the Payment Links API

Mollie has started to roll out the brand new Payment Links API for merchants in the Netherlands.

A Payment Link is designed for single use and - by default - does not expire.

This permanent nature makes these links ideally suited for sending via email, or including as a QR code on a print invoice. And did we mention they're super easy to use?

The Sandorian team already has updated the php client (mollie/mollie-api-php) and the Laravel client (mollie/laravel-mollie) so you can get started using Payment Links right away.

Here's how easy it is to generate a payment link with the php client:

<?php
$mollie = new \Mollie\Api\MollieApiClient();
$mollie->setApiKey("your_api_key_here");

$paymentLink = $mollie->paymentLinks->create([
  "amount" => [
    "currency" => "EUR",
    "value" => "12.10",
  ],
  "description" => "Order 66",
]);

$paymentLink->getCheckoutUrl(); // share or redirect

These new features will soon be accessible to all European merchants.
