Integrating Skip Pay BNPL is as easy as other payment methods
Integrating Skip Pay (BNPL) into your e-commerce store or payment system is just as simple as integrating any other non BNPL payment method.
Integration to your platform via REST API
Follow the steps below to seamlessly integrate BNPL into your platform:
- Customer selects BNPL as the payment method: When a customer proceeds to checkout on your e-commerce store or payment system, offer them the option to pay using Skip Pay.
- Customer is redirected to the payment gateway: Once the customer selects BNPL, they will be redirected to Skip Pay's payment gateway, which handles BNPL transactions. Follow Guide: Create Applications for details on how to create a new BNPL transaction.
- Customer provides necessary details: The customer will provide the required information to complete the BNPL payment on payment gateway. This may include some personal details or other relevant data.
- Payment gateway processes the transaction: Skip Pay's payment gateway will verify the payment and approve or decline the application (transaction) based on internal validation checks. For details on how to retrieve application details, including payment status, refer to Guide: Manage Your Orders - Retrieve Application Details.
- Customer is redirected back to your store: After successfully completing the payment, the customer will be redirected back to your e-commerce store and receive a payment confirmation.
- Financial flows similar to conventional payments: The financial flows for BNPL payments are similar to other payment methods like card payments. As a merchant, you will receive the full payment upfront, and Skip Pay takes responsibility for managing any potential customer defaults. Additionally, the BNPL system allows for refund and cancellation processes as well. In the event of a refund, the funds are returned to the merchant instead of directly to the customer, ensuring a seamless refund experience. For information on how to proceed the payment, refund the payment or cancel the payment, see Guide: Create application and Guide: Manage Your Orders.
Integration using plugins or one-click-solutions
In addition to our REST API, we also offer integration with several popular platforms, such as Comgate, Fast Centrik, Shoptet and Shopty. These integrations are click-solutions that make it easy to start using Skip Pay on your website with minimal setup.
