Payment links tools for Indian businesses
The 11 payment links tools we track, with verified India pricing (forex-adjusted), honest trade-offs, and the caveats most directories skip.
Quick answer: of the 11 payment links tools we track, 3 offer a free plan, and paid monthly plans run about ₹400–₹417 for a GST-registered business (after the card forex markup). The prices below are the India cost for a registered business, not the sticker. GST is extra if you cannot reclaim it.

Prices are the entry plan converted to rupees at an effective card rate (mid-market plus the forex markup), the cost a GST-registered business nets. GST adds 18% if you cannot reclaim it, and some Indian vendors already include it. Indicative, not your exact bill. Confirm each plan on the vendor site.
