Get started with processing Sales

Businesses wanting to connect better with customers can use the Sales APIs. These APIs make it easy to take payments in-store, online, and on mobile devices.


With a single Hubtel Sales API integration, you can:

  • accept mobile money and card payments on your application
  • sell goods and services in-store, online and on mobile
  • process all your sales on your Hubtel account.

The APIs can be used for:

  • online shopping payments
  • mobile banking
  • bulk payments
  • selling digital services and products
  • accepting donations, and many more.

Payment Channels

The Hubtel platform supports three main payment methods.

  1. Mobile Money: MTN, Vodafone, AirtelTigo
  2. Card: Mastercard, Visa (3DS)

Hubtel's Sales API Components

The Sales API is mainly made up of two core APIs

Fees

  1. On Business: By default, Hubtel fees will be charged to the Business. i.e. a customer shopping online at the cost of GHS 20.00, paying with either a mobile money wallet or card, will be debited exactly GHS 20.00. The business will however receive the amount minus the transaction fee.

  2. On Customer: If as a business you wish to pass the fees onto the customer. i.e. a customer shopping online at the cost of GHS 20.00, paying with either a mobile money wallet or card, will be debited GHS 20.00+ charges. You can communicate this to your account manager.

Settlement

We support hourly aggregated settlement for all transactions. This means that mobile money and card transactions on your account will be available for you to sweep out one hour after the payment is received.
