## What the Buyer Sees  
When a buyer clicks the payment link, they're taken to the payment page where they can enter their payment details and view an itemized breakdown of the products/services.

The fields present depend on the payment link settings and configuration.

Buyers see a confirmation message upon successful payment.  
For single-use payment links, clicking the link again shows that the payment was successful and does not allow another payment.
