# Hosted Checkout

***

Pingpay Hosted Checkout provides a simple, redirect-based way to accept crypto & fiat payments without managing wallets, signing flows, or on-chain execution.

In this model, Pingpay handles the entire payment experience through a hosted checkout page, while your application is responsible for creating checkout sessions and confirming their status.

A demo of the Ping Hosted Checkout is available at: <https://demo.widget.pingpay.io/>

#### How it works

1. Create a checkout session using the API
2. Redirect the user to the Pingpay-hosted checkout page
3. Receive the user back on your success or cancel URL
4. Retrieve the checkout session to confirm final status

**Hosted Checkout is ideal for:**

* Merchants who want a fast integration
* Applications that prefer redirect-based payment flows
* Use cases where Pingpay manages payment execution end-to-end
