What Is a Payment Form?

A payment form is a custom, branded web page that combines product or service details with a built-in payment checkout — no coding required. Unlike a basic payment link (which collects a single amount), a payment form lets you display product photos, descriptions, and custom data fields, and accept payments from multiple customers using the same URL.

When a customer opens your form, fills in their details, and pays, an Order is created — giving you full visibility into how many people visited, attempted, and completed payment. This makes forms ideal for businesses that need structured payment collection with customer information attached to every transaction.

Payment forms are also known as: online payment pages · custom payment pages · hosted payment forms · branded payment pages · no-code payment forms · payment collection forms


How Payment Forms Work

Cashfree Payment Forms are a no-code solution built on top of the Cashfree Payment Gateway. You create a form from the dashboard in under 2 minutes, customise it with your brand logo, colours and URL, add the products or services you're selling, and share the link — over WhatsApp, SMS, Email, or embed it directly on your website or app.

Every payment collected via a form is automatically reconciled and settled to your bank account on the standard settlement cycle, or within 15 minutes with Instant Settlements.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Payment Form?

A payment form is a web page that gives the option to add product details along with the option to collect user details. You can collect payments from multiple customers using the same form, without any integration or coding. Share the form URL with your customers on SMS, email, WhatsApp, other messaging apps, or embed it on your website and app and start collecting payments within minutes.


What is the difference between a Payment Form and a Payment Link?

A Payment Link is a simple shareable URL tied to a specific amount — ideal for one-time or partial payment collection. A Payment Form is a full custom-branded page where you can add product photos, descriptions, and custom data fields, and collect information from customers alongside their payment. Forms also create a trackable Order for every payment attempt, giving you conversion visibility that links don't provide.


Can I customize Payment Forms as per my needs?

Yes. Multiple customizations are available: fix the amount or allow customers to choose their own amount; add custom input fields to collect information; add product or service descriptions; add your brand logo; and choose a custom URL slug for the form.


Do I have to bear any charges for creating forms?

You can create unlimited forms for free. Standard TDR charges apply only to payments made by customers — no setup fee, no form creation fee, no maintenance charge.


What is the Cashfree Festive Offer?

As part of the Cashfree Festive Offer, new merchants who sign up between 21st July 2026 and 31st March 2027 receive a reduced rate of 0% MDR* on domestic transactions (instead of the standard 1.95%). This applies to UPI, domestic credit/debit cards, net banking, wallets, and prepaid cards.

The 0% MDRrate is locked in for 12 months from the date of signup. For international card transactions, a special pricing of 2.99% standard* applies instead of standard 2.99%.

Eligibility conditions: domestic GTV must not exceed ₹20 Lakh/month; UPI transactions must form a minimum 40% of monthly GTV; offer not available to merchants referred via partners or resellers. Full T&C →


Are international payments supported on Payment Forms?

Yes. International payments can be enabled on Payment Forms. Reach out to Cashfree to activate international payments based on your business type. If you have a PayPal account, connect PayPal to Cashfree Payments and start offering PayPal as a payment option on the checkout page instantly. 140+ international currencies are supported via the International Payment Gateway.


What are Orders on a Payment Form?

Each time a customer opens a Payment Form, fills in their details, and attempts a payment, a new Order is created against that form. This gives you visibility into how many times a customer visited the form before completing payment. You can follow up with customers who dropped off and use this data to improve your conversion rate.


Do I need a website to use Cashfree Payment Forms?

Yes. A website is required and must comply with Cashfree's onboarding requirements — displaying your business details and key policies (refund and privacy policies). This ensures compliance, faster onboarding, and a safe payment experience for your customers.


How quickly do I receive money collected via Payment Forms?

By default, funds are settled on a T+2 cycle. For faster access, activate Instant Settlements to receive funds within 15 minutes of payment capture — available 24×7, including bank holidays.


Can I process refunds for payments received through a Payment Form?

Yes. Cashfree supports Instant Refunds for all payment modes — UPI, debit cards, wallets (PhonePe, Amazon Pay, Paytm), net banking, and credit cards. Refunds to UPI, debit cards, and wallets are instant. Refunds to certain credit cards may take up to one business day. Refunds can be initiated from the dashboard or via API.


Can I save cards on Payment Forms for repeat customers?

Yes. Cashfree's Saved Card Tokenization lets customers save their cards securely in a fully RBI-compliant manner. Returning customers can check out faster without re-entering card details.


Can I embed a Payment Form on my website or app?

Yes. You can share the form URL directly or embed it on your website and app. Every payment made through the embedded form is automatically tracked and settled to your account.


How does Cashfree Payment Forms compare to Razorpay Payment Pages?

Both products allow you to create custom branded payment pages without code. Key differences: Cashfree's standard rate (1.95%) and promotional rate (0% MDR) are lower than Razorpay's standard 2%. Cashfree's Instant Settlements deliver funds within 15 minutes including bank holidays. Cashfree also provides five live demo forms across different business verticals so you can evaluate the product before building. See the full comparison above.


Can I use Payment Forms for donation collection?

Yes. NGOs and nonprofit organizations can create a donation form, add a cause description, and set a flexible amount field so donors can choose what they give. View the donation demo →


Can I use Payment Forms for recurring fee collection like school fees?

Payment Forms are ideal for one-time or periodic fee collection. For fully automated recurring billing where customer accounts are auto-debited each cycle, use Subscriptions, UPI AutoPay, or eNACH — all available from the same Cashfree account.


Is Cashfree Payment Forms secure?

Yes. Every transaction on a Cashfree Payment Form is protected by PCI DSS Level 1 compliance — the highest global standard for payment security. Cashfree holds an RBI Payment Aggregator licence (No. 266/2025) and is certified under ISO 9001 and ISO 27001. All transactions are monitored in real time by RiskShield, Cashfree's ML-based fraud detection system.


What is Card Pre-authorization on Payment Forms?

Card Pre-authorization lets you temporarily block a specific amount on a customer's card at the time of booking. If the order is modified or cancelled within 7–9 days, the block is lifted without initiating a refund cycle — saving gateway charges on cancelled orders. This is especially useful for travel, hospitality, and event bookings.


How do I collect KYC alongside a payment on a form?

For regulated industries like lending, insurance, or financial services, use KYC Link — a shareable URL that guides customers through a remote KYC verification flow. This can be sent before or alongside the Payment Form link.
