The name 'Request' does not exist in the current context

I have a web service file and I am trying to get the URL of the website in order to pass it to the client. Unfortunately, I am getting the error "The name 'Request' does not exist in the current context".

This is the code:

string url = Request.Url.ToString().Substring(0, Request.Url.ToString().LastIndexOf("/")) + "CheckOut.aspx";

This is my list of references at the top of the page:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.Services;
using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
using Provider.Classes;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
using System.Data;
using System.Text;

namespace Server
{
    public class VendorAppService : System.Web.Services.WebService
    {
        [WebMethod]
        public string StartPayment(string paymentDetails, byte[] signature)

Is there a workaround around this? thank you

Update

When I right-click on Request, the Visual Studio IDE does not bring up the Resolve option.

Request is not available in WebServices, you can pass it as an argument or set it in a variable in some class and access it here
