# Zoho Payments for WHMCS

Zoho Payments for WHMCS lets your customers pay their invoices through **Zoho Payments**, using an
**embedded widget** right on the invoice page. It works with both the **India (.in)** and **US
(.com)** Zoho data centres, verifies every payment against Zoho's API, and handles Payment Link
notifications through a signed webhook.

*Setup → Payment Gateways → Zoho Payments*

## Who it is for

A WHMCS business already using **Zoho** that wants to collect invoice payments through Zoho
Payments, with a smooth in-page widget and no customer leaving the invoice.

## How it works

| Step | What happens |
| --- | --- |
| **Pay Now** | The customer clicks Pay Now on their invoice |
| **Widget** | The embedded Zoho Payments widget opens with payment options |
| **API-verified** | On success, WHMCS verifies the payment against the Zoho API |
| **Marked paid** | The invoice is marked paid, with details and fees recorded |

## What you'll need

A **Zoho account** with Payments API access, an OAuth app (**Client ID / Client Secret**) and a
**refresh token**, plus **SSL** for the webhook. See [Requirements](/zoho-payments-whmcs/requirements)
and the [Zoho OAuth setup guide](/zoho-payments-whmcs/guides/zoho-oauth).
