# Link in the Express Checkout Element

Let customers check out faster with Link and the Express Checkout Element.

The Express Checkout Element gives you a single integration for accepting payments through one-click payment buttons. Supported payment methods include [Link](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/link.md), [Apple Pay](https://docs.stripe.com/apple-pay.md), [Google Pay](https://docs.stripe.com/google-pay.md), [PayPal](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/paypal.md), and [Amazon Pay](https://docs.stripe.com/payments/amazon-pay.md).

With this integration, you can:

- Dynamically sort payment buttons based on a customer’s location.
- Add payment buttons without any frontend changes.
- Integrate Elements seamlessly by reusing an existing Elements instance to save time.

## Create an Express Checkout Element

This code [creates](https://docs.stripe.com/js/element/express_checkout_element) an elements group with an Express Checkout Element and [mounts](https://docs.stripe.com/js/element/mount) it to the DOM.

```js
const appearance = { /* appearance */ }
const options = { /* options */ }
const elements = stripe.elements({
  mode: 'payment',
  amount: 1099,
  currency: 'usd',
  appearance,
})
const expressCheckoutElement = elements.create('expressCheckout', options)
expressCheckoutElement.mount('#express-checkout-element')
```
