How buyers pay: checkout, UPI and cards

What your buyers see at checkout: the details they enter, UPI and card payment, free products, and what happens after they pay.

Someone taps I want this! on your product page and lands on checkout. Knowing what they see there helps you answer "how do I pay?" before it hits your DMs.

Walk through the checkout form

The checkout shows your name, the product and the total on one side, and a short form on the other.

  1. Under Your details, the buyer enters an email and a mobile number. The email is the one that matters later: it's how they get back to the purchase.

  2. Under Billing Address, the country is set to India and the buyer picks their State. The state decides how GST is split, so it only appears on paid products.

  3. Under Payment, they choose UPI or Card. UPI shows the PhonePe, GPay and Paytm logos; Card shows Visa, Mastercard and Amex.

  4. They tap Pay and finish in the Cashfree payment window that opens over the page.

Checkout works for buyers in India today.

Check the total before they pay

The summary lists the price, then Total due. If your payout account has a GSTIN, the GST line appears above the total: CGST and SGST when the buyer is in your state, IGST when they're not.

For example, a buyer in Pune selects Maharashtra, reviews the total and pays by UPI. Downloads become available after the payment is confirmed.

Give it away free

When the price is Free, checkout asks only for email and mobile number. There's no billing address and no payment step, and the button reads Get for free.

Know what happens after payment

The button spins while Zorcha confirms the payment. Then the buyer lands on your product page with a Thank you heading, every file listed, and a Download all button (or Download for a single file).

A few messages buyers might mention:

  • This checkout link has expired: checkout links last 30 minutes. They go back to the product and start again.

  • This email already has this product: they're taken to sign in, where the purchase is waiting.

  • We couldn't confirm the payment yet: if money was debited, sign in at zorcha.link/account with the checkout email and check Recent Purchases. If the product is still missing, contact support with the payment reference, checkout email and payment time before attempting another payment.

Next: What buyers get after paying: the zorcha.link account. For paid selling, first set up and verify your payout account.
