How create external link, on deal object page, and pass deal properties in querystring

Hi all, I've searched the doc and am familiar with Hubspot API but i can't seem to find a way to create an external link or button, on deal object page, and pass deal properties in querystring.

So, if user has pulled up a specific Deal detail page in HS and needs to generate a quote on our external website, they could click this new property/link/button and it would grab a few Deal fields from the current page and embed them into querystring.

For example, when property/link/button is clicked on Deal page, it would dynamically build and go to this url: www.exampleQuote.com?prospectName=<valueOf_ProspectNameProperty>&prospectBudget=<valueOf_ProspectBud...

We've used webhooks to do this in the past, but currently our webhooks don't trigger for 30 seconds to 3 mins AFTER the user Saves the Deal ... I guess due to excessive server load at Hubspot...? So, is there some way to do this withOUT using webhooks, so that response is instant?
Thanks!

My thought was that you create a custom card that displays the URL.

You will send the properties to your system that will generate the URL

www.externalExampleQuote.com?prospectName=<valueOf_Hubspots_ProspectNameProperty>&prospectBudget=<va...

I am wondering if the CRM Card extension would be a possible replacement for webhooks
