Payment links guide: get donations from anywhere
Payment links gives you ready-made links and buttons to get support outside your eSponsor page: on social media, on your website, in an email or anywhere else.
You can open it at esponsor.com/widgets/payment-links.
Direct donation link
It's a link that goes straight to the window for leaving you a tip. Whoever opens it picks the amount, can leave you a message and pays, without having to look for the button on your page.
- Under Direct donation link, copy your link.
- Paste it wherever you like: your Instagram bio, your video descriptions, an email or your website.
If you don't see your link, you first need to connect a payment method in your sales settings. You'll see a notice there with a link to do it.
Tip: you can suggest an amount by adding
?amount=and the number to the end of the link, for exampleesponsor.com/your-username/donate?amount=5.
To set up your tips' text, thank-you message and minimum amount, see the tipjar guide.
eSponsor Button
It's a button you add to your website or blog so people can donate with one click.
- Under eSponsor Button, tap Create my button.
- Under Customize your button, pick the Background color, the Text color and the button's text, for example "Be my sponsor!".
- Check how it looks in the Preview and tap Save changes.
- Copy the JavaScript code and the HTML code, and paste them into your website.
If you're not sure where to paste them, ask whoever manages your website for help.
Referral link
This is also where you'll find your referral link, to invite other creators to eSponsor. Tap See details to see who you've referred. See how do I refer people on eSponsor and what do I earn.
Ideas for using your links
- Put your donation link in your video and livestream descriptions.
- Add it to the end of your emails or blog posts.
- Use the eSponsor button on your website, near your most popular content.
