How to add Payment Button to your website

Embed Payment Button on Your Website

01

Create a Payment Button widget for your website on Common Ninja

First, create a Payment Button widget on Common Ninja. On the widgets catalog, find the Payment Button and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Payment Button widget

When you're done creating the Payment Button widget, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Payment Button Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Payment Button widget to your website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the widget embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your website.

04

Paste the code to your Platform website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Platform website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Platform’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Payment Button Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Payment Button widget on your Platform website.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Payment Button widget on your Platform widget. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Platform website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Payment Button widget to your Platform website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Platform website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Payment Button widget when you sell one time products, sessions, or packages and want a direct, simple checkout path. Instead of building a full store, you place a button that opens a secure payment form connected to PayPal or Stripe. This is ideal for single offers, consulting calls, digital downloads, or donation like contributions tied to fixed amounts. You can embed the button on landing pages, sales pages, or even in content that describes the offer, keeping the distance between decision and payment as short as possible. For many small businesses and creators, this approach is faster to launch and easier to maintain than traditional cart systems.
