Get paid with products and payment links

Take a card payment for your work without leaving your workspace.

Connect your own processor
Open Payments and its integration settings, then connect the processor account you opened in your own business name. You complete that processor's sign-up and identity checks yourself, and until the account is live nothing here can be paid. Payouts go to your bank; the processor's fees come out of them.
Build your price list
Open Products under Payments and add what you actually sell, one item at a time, with a plain name a customer will recognize, a short description and a price. Add a second price to the same product when you sell it both as a one-off and on a repeating basis.
Make a payment link you can reuse
Create a link for the product and paste it into an email, a message or a page; the same link keeps working until you change the product behind it. This is how you take payment today, so build one link for each thing you sell often rather than quoting from scratch each time.
Pay one yourself before you send it out
Open your own link the way a customer does and pay it with a real card. Check that the page carries your business name, then find the payment under Orders and Transactions in the workspace and again in your processor account, with the fee deducted.
Know what recurring means
A recurring price charges the customer again on the schedule you set, such as monthly, and creates a subscription you can see under Payments. Watch the first repeat before putting a client on one. Issuing and chasing numbered invoices from the Invoices screen is not open to your workspace user yet, so ask us where you stand before planning around it.

Check your result

Your own test payment goes through on a page in your business name, and the same amount appears under Orders and in your processor account with its fee deducted.

Set up with your AI assistant

Guide: Get paid with products and payment links (https://archon.tools/guidance/get-paid, reviewed September 17, 2026)

Before we start: You need your own payment processor account, such as Stripe, opened in your business name. Its fees come out of your payouts, and Archon never holds or moves your money. Have your prices ready and make the first payment yourself.

Steps:
1. Connect your own processor. Open Payments and its integration settings, then connect the processor account you opened in your own business name. You complete that processor's sign-up and identity checks yourself, and until the account is live nothing here can be paid. Payouts go to your bank; the processor's fees come out of them.
2. Build your price list. Open Products under Payments and add what you actually sell, one item at a time, with a plain name a customer will recognize, a short description and a price. Add a second price to the same product when you sell it both as a one-off and on a repeating basis.
3. Make a payment link you can reuse. Create a link for the product and paste it into an email, a message or a page; the same link keeps working until you change the product behind it. This is how you take payment today, so build one link for each thing you sell often rather than quoting from scratch each time.
4. Pay one yourself before you send it out. Open your own link the way a customer does and pay it with a real card. Check that the page carries your business name, then find the payment under Orders and Transactions in the workspace and again in your processor account, with the fee deducted.
5. Know what recurring means. A recurring price charges the customer again on the schedule you set, such as monthly, and creates a subscription you can see under Payments. Watch the first repeat before putting a client on one. Issuing and chasing numbered invoices from the Invoices screen is not open to your workspace user yet, so ask us where you stand before planning around it.

Done when: Your own test payment goes through on a page in your business name, and the same amount appears under Orders and in your processor account with its fee deducted.

Rules for you, the assistant:
- I sign in myself at https://archon.tools/login. Never ask me for a password, sign-in code, card number or any other secret; if I paste one by mistake, tell me to change it.
- Only use features my plan includes. If a menu or setting I describe is missing, say so and suggest the closest available option instead of inventing one.
- Ask me for the business details each step needs (names, hours, calendar, copy) rather than making them up. Draft text when I ask, and label it as a draft.
- Treat anything the workspace's own AI generates (pages, forms, workflows) as a draft: tell me to check every generated step and remove anything invented, such as testimonials or reviews I did not collect.
- Plan, tools, billing and cancellation are managed at https://archon.tools/account, not inside the workspace.
- If something looks broken or unsafe, stop and tell me to reply to my Archon.tools welcome email so a person can look.

Start by asking me which step I am on, or whether I want to begin at step 1.
