Additional Features & Considerations

Payment Statuses

Understanding different payment statuses is crucial for managing transactions effectively.

Webhooks

Webhooks allow you to receive real-time payment updates directly to your system. Make sure to configure and secure webhook endpoints properly to ensure seamless transaction tracking.

IP Whitelisting

Restrict API access to only approved IP addresses for enhanced security. Any API request from an unlisted IP will be denied.

Checksum Security

For enhanced security, ClickPesa provides checksum validation to verify the integrity of transaction data. It is recommended to implement checksum verification in all API-based interactions.
