Integration flow

1

Obtain your credentials

Obtain your access credentials (Client ID, Client Secret, and Merchant ID). The integration team will contact you and deliver them securely.You can use these credentials to authenticate API requests, identify your merchant in transactions, and configure the SANDBOX and PRODUCTION environments.Sandbox is used to test and validate an integration without affecting real transactions. Production is the live environment for processing real transactions.

Choose your integration method

Select the method that best fits your business (Web, Mobile, API, CMS, or POS) and define the payment methods you want to enable. Consider the sales channel, required customization, and available technical resources.

Configure your integration method

Follow the corresponding technical guide and implement authentication, transaction parameters, and required components.
  • Configure authentication (API key or tokens).
  • Define parameters such as amount, currency, and merchant_operation_number.
  • Configure return URLs and notifications (webhooks/S2S).
  • Integrate frontend components or an SDK when applicable.

Run tests

Test approved and declined scenarios and verify that notifications (webhooks/S2S) are received correctly.
Review Transaction states for more information about the transaction lifecycle.
5

Validate in preproduction

The integration team will validate your implementation and, if approved, provide your production credentials.Run controlled tests, validate the end-to-end flow—including notifications—and confirm that transactions are processed correctly.
