Products

Available for Professional plans and above. Requires Stripe Connect.

Products are reusable items that your customers can purchase. Think of them as the catalogue of things you sell — digital downloads, consulting sessions, memberships, physical goods, or any service.

Why Create Products?

You might wonder: "Why not just use quick checkout every time?" Here's why products are better:

• Consistency — the same product always has the same name, price, and description
• Tracking — you can see how many times each product has been purchased
• Simplicity — your API calls and shortcodes only need the product ID
• Management — update the price in one place, it applies everywhere

Quick checkout (without a product) is useful for one-off payments, but products are the recommended approach for anything you sell regularly.

Creating a Product

1. Go to Money → Products in the sidebar
2. Fill in the form at the top of the page:
   • Name — the product name your customers will see (e.g., "Premium eBook", "1-Hour Consultation")
   • Description — a brief description (up to 1,000 characters)
   • Amount — the price (e.g., 29.99). This is the amount charged to the customer
   • Currency — select the currency (GBP, USD, EUR, etc.)
   • Image URL — an optional product image
3. Click Create Product

The product appears in the table below, ready to be used.

Managing Products

The products table shows:

Actions

• Toggle Active/Inactive — deactivate a product to stop accepting new purchases without deleting it
• Inline Edit — click any product to edit its details directly in the table
• Delete — remove a product (only possible if it has no paid transactions; deactivate instead)

Using Products

Via the API

Create a checkout session for a product:

POST /api/payment/checkout
{
  "productId": "your-product-guid",
  "customerEmail": "customer@example.com",
  "successUrl": "https://yoursite.com/thank-you",
  "cancelUrl": "https://yoursite.com/cancelled"
}

The response includes a checkoutUrl — redirect the customer there.

Via WordPress

Use the [flnkit_pay] shortcode with a product ID:

[flnkit_pay product_id="your-product-guid" button_text="Buy Now"]

Or without a product (quick checkout):

[flnkit_pay amount="19.99" currency="gbp" description="Premium Guide" button_text="Buy Now"]

Via Other Plugins

All CMS plugins can use the Payment API to create checkout sessions. See the REST API documentation for details.
