Payment Links: Customize Your Checkout Button Text

Customize the checkout button text on a Payment Link so the call to action matches your offer, brand, or customer action.

This is useful for offers such as:

  1. Subscriptions

  2. Event registrations

  3. Memberships

  4. Courses

  5. Service bookings

  6. Donations

  7. Product purchases

Examples of custom button text include:

  • Buy Now

  • Claim Your Spot

  • Subscribe Now

  • Get Instant Access

  • Complete Registration

What the Custom Button Text Controls

The custom button text controls the label shown on the checkout button that customers click to complete payment.

The button text appears on the customer-facing checkout page for the Payment Link.

Custom button text is available for Payment Links in the web Payment Link builder.

Default Button Text Options

Kyrios provides default checkout button labels you can select from.

Default options include:

  1. Pay

  2. Book

  3. Donate

You can use a default option or enter your own custom button text.

Custom button text can be up to 50 characters.

How to Customize the Payment Link Button Text

  1. Go to Payments.

  2. Open Payment Links.

  3. Create a new Payment Link or open an existing Payment Link.

  4. Scroll to Advanced Options.

  5. Find Call to action for payment link button.

  6. Open the dropdown.

  7. Select a default option or enter custom button text.

  8. Confirm the checkout preview shows the correct button text.

  9. Save or publish the Payment Link.

Character Limit

Custom button text supports up to 50 characters.

If the text is longer than 50 characters, shorten the label before saving.

Use clear, action-based wording so customers understand what happens when they click the button.

Preview Behavior

The checkout preview updates when the button text is changed. Use the preview to confirm the exact button text customers will see before sharing the Payment Link.

The custom button text appears on the checkout button across customer devices.

When Changes Take Effect

Changes apply to new checkout sessions.

Customers who already have the checkout page open may continue to see the previous button text until they refresh the page.

Common Issues and Fixes

The button text did not change for a customer

Ask the customer to refresh the checkout page.

Button text changes apply to new sessions. A customer who opened the checkout page before the change may still see the previous label.

The custom text will not save

Check that the custom button text is 50 characters or fewer.

Shorten the label and save the Payment Link again.

The checkout button still shows Pay, Book, or Donate

Confirm that custom text was entered under Advanced Options in Call to action for payment link button.

Then save the Payment Link and open a fresh checkout session to test it.
