payment

payment turns a URL into a payment button on the channels that have one. The platform teaches this block on every text channel; see Response formatting. The URL comes from your payment provider, typically returned by a tool. Verified against lua-cli 3.33.0.

Syntax

::: payment
[Label](https://pay.example.com/session)
:::

Fields

`[Label]`	Yes	Button text in email sent from your own address only. The web widget shows a fixed Open payment button; WhatsApp, Slack, and Teams show Pay Now, Messenger and Instagram Pay.
`(url)`	Yes	Public HTTPS URL of the checkout page.

Example

Your order is ready to pay.

::: payment
[Pay $1,299 for order 4821](https://checkout.stripe.com/c/pay/cs_test_abc123)
