FAQ
Can a Zap start when a Buckaroo payment is received?
Not directly. The app provides one action and no triggers, so nothing in Zapier watches Buckaroo for new payments.
You can achieve the same result by pointing the Push URL at a Zapier Webhooks catch hook and starting a second Zap from it. See Reacting to payment status.
What does the app actually create?
A PayLink. Buckaroo returns a link, you deliver it to your customer, and opening it takes them to a Buckaroo checkout page offering the methods you allowed in the Zap.
Can I refund, capture or cancel a payment from Zapier?
No. Create Payment Link With Buckaroo is the only action available. Refunds and cancellations are handled in Plaza or through the Buckaroo API.
Do I need a webshop to use this?
No, and that is the main reason to use it. The app suits businesses that invoice from a spreadsheet, a form or a CRM rather than from a shop. The customer pays through a link instead of a checkout.
Which payment methods can a link offer?
Any method that is active on your Buckaroo store, selected in the action, and able to handle the currency you send. See Payment methods.
Can one link offer more than one payment method?
Yes. Allow as many as you like in the Payment Methods field, and the customer chooses on the checkout page.
Which currencies are supported?
Those your Buckaroo store accepts, subject to what each payment method supports. A method that cannot handle the currency you send is left off the checkout page.
Can I send the payment link by email automatically?
Yes. Add an email step after the Buckaroo action and map the returned link into the message body. The same works for SMS or any other channel Zapier can reach.
Does Buckaroo provide the Push URL?
No. You supply the endpoint yourself, and the field is required. Either use a Zapier Webhooks catch hook, which needs no server, or an endpoint on your own site. See Push URL.
How do I know whether a link was paid?
Through the push message Buckaroo sends to your Push URL, and in Plaza under Transactions. A customer reaching your Return URL is not proof of payment.
How do I match a payment result back to the row or form that created it?
Use the Order and Invoice values. Map them from your trigger step so each payment carries its own references, and they come back in the push message. See Order and invoice references.
Do payment links expire?
A PayLink stays usable until the payment is completed or the transaction expires. Expiry behaviour depends on the payment method the customer chooses, since some methods hold a payment open longer than others.
Can I test without taking real money?
Yes. Leave Test mode on. Links created in test mode run against the Buckaroo test environment and cannot move real money. See Testing.
Can I use the same connection for test and live?
Yes. Mode is set per action with the Test mode field, not per connection, so one connection serves both.
Can I connect more than one Buckaroo store?
Yes. Add one connection per store and choose the right connection on each action step.
Can I use the Buckaroo action from an AI assistant or from code?
Zapier exposes the action through their own MCP server and SDK, so it can be called outside a Zap. Those surfaces are provided and documented by Zapier rather than by Buckaroo.
Is the styling of the checkout page configurable?
Yes, in Plaza. This is worth doing here, because customers arrive from a message rather than from your site. See Smart Checkout styling.
