Add Payhip to Your Website
You don't need your own website to use Payhip. You have a fully dedicated store with us, which you can send your customers to.
However, if you already have your own website, then you can easily integrate Payhip with that. You have a few different options for this:
Build your shop on Payhip
The easiest and most seamless option is to build your store on Payhip and link to your website. You can do this by adding a Shop link to your website navigation and directing it to your Payhip store URL.
For example, your main website might be at yourdomain.com, and your Shop link would direct visitors to shop.yourdomain.com, which points to your Payhip store.
If you don't want to create a subdomain, you can simply use your Payhip store URL directly as the Shop link in your navigation.
To find your store URL, go to your Payhip dashboard and scroll down. Your store link will appear on the right-hand side. Copy the link and paste it into your website navigation, where you want your shop to appear.
Embed a Payhip button
Another option is to embed a Payhip button on your website. Your visitors can click on this button to purchase and download your product.
This is currently only available for digital and physical products, not for tiered-priced products (courses, memberships, coaching, or bundles) at this time.
To get started, visit your Products page. Next, find the product that you’d like the button to link to, select Share / Embed, and then go to the Embed Button tab of the modal that appears.
There are four themes available for your button: green, blue, grey, and none. If you set the button theme to none, the embed button will appear as a simple link, allowing you to fully customize its design with your own style.
Once you're done creating your button, click Get Your Embed Code. This will give you two code snippets.
Paste the first snippet into the head tag of the page where you'll embed the button, then paste the second snippet wherever you want the button to appear on your page.
Example button
Here's an example of an embedded button:
Buy Now
Use direct checkout links
With this setup, you create your product pages on your own site, then add a button (such as Buy Now) that links directly to checkout. This allows customers to complete their purchase quickly, skipping the product page.
This option is ideal if:
- You want full control over your product page design
- You already have an existing website or sales funnel
- You prefer a simple and fast checkout experience
Sample checkout link
If your product page link is: https://payhip.com/b/ZjHXI.
Your direct checkout link would be: https://payhip.com/buy?link=ZjHXI.
For more details on how to use this setup, you can check this article: Direct Checkout Links.
Link directly to Payhip product page
Another option is to link directly to your Payhip product pages.
Instead of sending customers straight to checkout, you can guide them to a specific product listing on Payhip. From there, they can view more details and complete their purchase. You can do this by adding buttons, images, or links on your website that redirect to your Payhip product pages.
This option works well if:
- You want customers to see product details before purchasing
- You don't want to build full product pages on your own site
- You're promoting specific products individually
