The customer will have to enter these details manually while making the payment. * After successful completion of the payment, customers can be redirected to a specific URL using the `callback_url` and `callback_method` parameters. Know more about how to use [these paramaters](/api/payments/payment-links#using-callback-url-parameter). * Verify the `razorpay_signature` parameter to validate that it is authentic and sent from Razorpay servers. Know more about how to [Verify Signature](/api/payments/payment-links#verify-signature). ### Request ````curl: Curl theme={null} curl -u [YOUR_KEY_ID]:[YOUR_KEY_SECRET] \ -X POST https://api.razorpay.com/v1/payment_links/ \ -H 'Content-type: application/json' \ -d '{ "upi_link": "true", "amount": 1000, "currency": "INR", "accept_partial": false, "first_min_partial_amount": 100, "expire_by": 1691097057, "reference_id": "TS1989", "description": "Payment for policy no #23456", "customer": { "name": "Gaurav Kumar", "contact": "+919876543210", "email": "gaurav.kumar@example.com" }, "notify": { "sms": true, "email": true }, "reminder_enable": true, "notes": { "policy_name": "Life Insurance Policy" }, "callback_url": "https://example-callback-url.com/", "callback_method": "get" }' ```go: Go import ( razorpay "github.com/razorpay/razorpay-go" ) client := razorpay.NewClient("YOUR_KEY_ID", "YOUR_SECRET") data := map[string]interface{}{ "upi_link": "true", "amount": 1000, "currency": "INR", "accept_partial": false, "expire_by": 1691097057, "reference_id": "TS1989", "description": "Payment for policy no #23456", "customer": map[string]interface{}{ "name": "Gaurav Kumar", "contact": "+919876543210", "email": "gaurav.kumar@example.com", }, "notify": map[string]interface{}{ "sms": true, "email": true, }, "reminder_enable": true, "notes": map[string]interface{}{ "policy_name": "Life Insurance Policy", }, } body, err := client.PaymentLink.Create(data, nil) ```php: PHP $api = new Api($key_id, $secret);
