Sending a Payment Link to a Parent
Let a parent, or anyone else, pay for a credit pack from their own device — and be sure the credits land on your account, not theirs.
Where the line is
On the Pricing page, under the Buy button of a credit pack, sits a quiet line: Paying for someone else? Send a payment link to a parent. It is there for anybody without a card of their own.
You have to be signed in for it to show, because the credits need an account to land on. It is offered on packs only — a subscription cannot be paid this way.
Making the link and sending it
- Press Send a payment link to a parent under the pack you want. A window with the same title opens and reads Making your link…
- Press “Copy link” — or Share on a phone, which opens your phone's own share sheet with the pack, the credits and the price already written.
- They open the link and pay on Stripe's own checkout, with a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. They do not need a VyroAI account.
- The credits arrive on your account, usually within a minute of the payment.
Who gets the credits, and who gets the receipt
The window says it in one line: The 2.000 credits land on this account ([email protected]), not on the account of whoever pays. That holds even when the person paying has a VyroAI account of their own and is signed in to it — the link carries your account with it.
They type their own email address at the checkout, so Stripe's receipt, and any VAT invoice, goes to the person who actually paid.
When the payment is done they land back on the Pricing page with a green box: "Payment received — the credits go to the account that sent you this link", and under it "There is nothing else to do, and you don't need an account. The credits usually arrive within a minute." It is written for somebody who has never seen VyroAI before, so there is nothing they have to work out.
The link stops working after about a day
The window prints the exact moment it runs out, in your own time zone — This link works until … — rather than a vague "24 hours". That is the longest Stripe keeps a checkout open, so a link sent tonight is no good next week; open the window again for a fresh one.
Reopening the window for the same pack while the link still has time on it hands you the same link back, so you can copy it again without making a second one.
When the link cannot be made
If something goes wrong, the window says We couldn't make the link, with the reason underneath in the payment provider's own words and a Try again button. Nothing has been charged and no page has opened: there is nothing to undo.
