How do I add payment details to a document?

To simplify the collection process and automate financial management, Moloni ON allows you to integrate payment gateways directly into your documents. When you activate this option, the system automatically generates the payment details associated with your configured financial entity - Multibanco references or direct links (PayByLink) - allowing your customer to pay with total convenience.

However, there are specific rules regarding where and when you can use this feature in Moloni ON. Make sure you meet the following requirements:

  • Eligible documents: Payment details can only be added to Invoices and Regular/Recurring Invoices. They are not available for other document types.
  • Workflow flexibility: You can include the payment right at the time of issuance or add it later to a document that has already been closed.

During the creation of a document

If you are issuing a new invoice or regular invoice and want the customer to receive the payment link straight away, follow these steps:


1. Access Documents on the left menu of Moloni ON, click Sales, and select Invoices.
