What is Paystack?

Paystack is an online payment gateway that lets your customers pay you over the internet using popular payment methods available in Africa (for example: cards and local bank/payment options, depending on the country). When Paystack confirms a payment, TourTask can automatically mark the related booking as paid and trigger the normal confirmation flow.

Obtenga las credenciales requeridas para Paystack

Para integrar Paystack con TourTask, primero deberá obtener un conjunto de credenciales (a menudo denominadas credenciales API), que lo identificarán cuando sus clientes le paguen utilizando la pasarela de pago Paystack.

Para Paystack, se requieren las siguientes credenciales:

• Llave secreta

Para obtener estas credenciales, siga estos pasos:

1. Create or sign in to your Paystack account.
2. Activate a Live account (required):
   Paystack accounts start in test/sandbox mode by default, which is not useful for real customer payments in TourTask.
   In your Paystack Dashboard, go to Compliance and complete the required verification form(s) to request a Live account. You may need to wait for Paystack to review and approve your submission before your Live account is enabled.
3. Get your Paystack API credentials:
   In your Paystack Dashboard, go to Settings > API Keys & Webhooks and copy the required keys shown there.
   Then paste them into TourTask under Configuration > Payment Options for Paystack.
4. Set the webhook URL (required for reliable payment updates):
   To guarantee TourTask receives Paystack payment notifications and can automatically mark bookings as paid, you must set Paystack's Webhook URL.
   
   In Paystack, go to Settings > API Keys & Webhooks and under Webhook URL, enter this exact URL:
   https://api.tourtask.com/v1/payments/paystack/notifications
   Save your changes.

Important: If the webhook URL is not configured, TourTask may not receive payment confirmation events from Paystack, which can prevent bookings from being marked as paid automatically.
