Developers

Calling all merchants! Let's set up your platform to receive online payments. 🎉

First things first, read through our API documentation. Developers and non-developers can take a look at the documentation as this site contains all of the resources and keys that you'll need to integrate your website or even your apps!

You might wonder why your account can only view Test API keys, we've heard that from several merchants. You can just toggle the 'Viewing live data' button to view your live keys.

🤫 Quick Tip:

You can quickly check if you are using the correct keys by checking the first 4 characters.

Live API Keys:

pk_live

sk_live

Test API Keys:

pk_test

sk_test

Regenerating your API keys

You may now regenerate your API keys as part of our initiatives to improve your account's security.

Step 1: Click Edit and Regenerate your API keys

Step 2: Confirm that you would like to regenerate your API keys.

Step 3: Input the OTP sent to your registered e-mail address or mobile number.

You have successfully regenerated your API keys! You can also see the date and time you have last updated or regenerated your API keys.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have a current website or application that uses the old API keys, update them to the new keys to continue accepting payments.
