# Create checkout links

## What are checkout links?

At the core of the 3mint platform is the ability to easily share the digital collectibles you have created to existing and new customers. These links can be standalone web pages or integrations within your existing website. In either case, they can be fully customized to match your branding. 

There are three types of Checkout Links:

1. **Default**: Automatically created when you upload your NFT data. This link can be sent to anyone and they will be able to claim or purchase the digital collectible.
2. **General**: Manually created and is only valid for your existing customer base.
3. **Specific**: Manually created and is only valid for specific customers you have selected.

Below is a guide for how these links can be created.

## Creating a Checkout Link

### 1. Go to the Checkout Links page

Click on the "Links" button on the right-hand side of the NFT row.

This will bring you to a page where you will see all the links you have created. Whenever you upload NFT data, one default link is automatically created for it.&#x20;

### 2. Click on the "Create Link" Button

This will open up a modal that allows you to choose the contacts you want to whitelist **(A)**, verify that you have selected the right contacts **(B)**, and then add specific parameters relevant to the link **(C)**.

#### A. Choose your contacts

#### C. Choose checkout parameters

This last step is particularly important as it will determine where a user will receive the digital collectible (a 3mint wallet or their own non-custodial wallet), how many digital collectibles they can receive, and what dates the link should be active.

Once you have selected all your options, click on the "Create" button.

### Result
