Evidence Check sample

Question

Can a Stripe-hosted Checkout or Payment Link collect more than one structured intake field from a buyer?

Decision context

An agent-service provider wants to collect a claim, source link, and deadline during checkout without building a custom payment form.

Evidence reviewed

1. Stripe Checkout custom fields documentation states that Checkout supports up to three custom fields.
2. Stripe Payment Link customization documentation describes hosted-link configuration and post-payment behavior.

Finding

The proposed three-field intake fits Stripe's published custom-field limit. The fields should remain short; long logs and file uploads require a separate intake method.

Evidence gaps

• This check does not confirm which options are enabled in a particular Stripe account.
• Stripe product behavior may change; configuration should be verified in the authenticated live dashboard before publishing.

Recommended next action

Create the Payment Link in test mode, add exactly three short fields, validate the confirmation flow, and then reproduce the configuration in live mode.
