Unlinkability is actually considered an asset in many web contexts.

I'm by no means an enemy to Linked Data, I just don't see what it
would do for *conventional* payments except for introducing privacy
and access control concerns.

I have now updated the WebCrypto++ payment demo documentation:
https://openkeystore.googlecode.com/svn/wcpp-payment-demo/trunk/docs/messages.html

It uses a *single* link (AuthURL) but this link is not published not on the web, it is rather
carried inside of a locally stored credential and is only accessible through trusted code.
