As you can notice in the table above, the available payment methods are essentially bank cards and mobile money.
The payment methods are divided into two categories depending on how the transfer of funds is been done from the method of payment.
With redirection, you send the payment link generated during the transaction creation to your customer who will be redirected to a page where he can choose to settle the transaction with the payment method of his choice.
This can be done with all the available payment methods we support.
Bank cards
Once redirected to the payment page with the link you gave him, the customer when he chooses to settle the transaction by Bank card, is sent on a page outside our platform.
He can make his payment safely with his Visa or MasterCard card by just providing information about it.
Note that at this point, FedaPay has no access to your customer's Bank card information.
Only the bank which has provided your customer's card can check the validity of the information and approve the transaction.
In case of compliance, he is automatically debited according to the amount of the transaction.
Mobile Money
When your customer chooses to pay by mobile money, the token contained in the link you sent him is used.
He receives a notification directly on his phone asking him to approve the payment by just entering the secret PIN code of his mobile money account. As soon as he does, his mobile money account is debited and the payment is done.
Notes :
- The payment link leaves the choice of payment method to your customers while using the token allows you to define in advance the payment method they must use to settle transactions.
- The token and the link are only valid for 24 hours and can only be used once. If the token or link expires, you will need to generate a new one. If the payment fails, you will need to create a new transaction.
