# Tracking Payment Links

Monitor your payment links to see their state, view payment attempts, and track completed transactions.

Refunds
Refunds on payments made through payment links are handled the same way as other payments. For more information, see [Refunds](/guides/after-the-payment/refunds).

## Payment Link States

Payment links move through different states as buyers interact with them. Filter the payment links list by state to quickly find what you're looking for.

| Status | Description |
|  --- | --- |
| **Active** | The payment link is available for buyers to use. |
| **Completed** | A payment has been successfully made (single-use links only). |
| **Expired** | The link validity period has passed and the link can no longer be used. |
| **Deactivated** | The payment link was manually deactivated and can no longer be used. |
