Take payments with Paystack

Connect Paystack to take cards, bank and mobile money in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Kenya and Côte d’Ivoire. Try it in demo mode or with your test key first.

If your business is in Nigeria, Ghana, South Africa, Kenya or Côte d'Ivoire, customers can pay through your own Paystack account. The money goes straight to your Paystack account.

Try it first

  • Stores priced in rand: open Site settings → Payments → Paystack and switch on Demo mode. You can try the whole checkout with no Paystack account, using test card 4084 0840 8408 4081, any future date and CVV 408. No real money moves.
  • Any store: use your own Paystack test key, as below.

Connect Paystack

  1. In your Paystack Dashboard, open Settings → API Keys & Webhooks.
  2. Copy the Test Secret Key (sk_test_). Once Paystack activates your business, copy the Live Secret Key (sk_live_) too.
  3. In Mondovo, open Site settings → Payments → Paystack, paste the keys, choose Mode (Test or Live) and save.
  4. Place a test order in test mode. When you are ready to sell, switch Mode to Live. Both keys stay saved.

Optional: webhook

Payments are confirmed when the customer comes back to your site. To also confirm payments when a customer closes the page early, copy the webhook URL shown under Paystack in Payments into Live Webhook URL (or Test Webhook URL) in the same Paystack page.
