Payment buttons

Payment buttons are used for easy payment processing within created landing pages. This is widely used in the Netherlands for fundraising. The processing is done using iDeal. The payment buttons can hold a fixed value or represent an adjustable amount. Generally a few fixed options and an adjustable button is provided on the page to provide a low bar to solicit donations. Please see the example below.

Iframing a page on another website

A page can be embedded on another site using iframes. Learn more about this in the article 'How to embed a page on a website?'

Limitations

A page that uses payment buttons can currently not be iframed. This means that a page containing payments buttons has to be linked to and cannot be embedded directly in another website.
