Understanding PayMongo Pages

PayMongo Pages are always-on customizable checkout pages that serve as a dedicated online storefront or payment portal for your business.

They're customizable, hosted web pages that you can set up instantly from your dashboard to collect payments. Unlike Links (which are typically for one-off requests), Pages are persistent and can serve as a primary payment gateway for your website or various business needs.

• Ideal for: Collecting payments for products sold or services rendered, ongoing monthly dues, consulting fees, or showcasing a product catalog.
• Customization: You can customize the page title, logo, description, and accepted payment methods.

Types of PayMongo Pages

PayMongo offers different Page types to suit various collection scenarios:

• Custom Amount: Ideal when you want your customers to enter the payment amount themselves (e.g., donations, variable service fees).
• Fixed Amount: Used when customers need to pay a specific predetermined amount for a single product or service (e.g., a specific course fee).
• Product Catalog: This powerful page type allows you to display multiple products or services, automatically calculating the total basket size for the customer on a single, integrated page.

You can see it in action through these demo pages we created:
