Getting started

1. Overview

This document will guide you in implementing the Paga RESTful Merchant Services API. Which you can use to execute the different Paga services exposed to Merchants. This API works for both JSON and XML determined by the HTTP request Accept header value.

2. PAGA Merchant API

The PAGA Merchant API platform exposes operations that are useful for Merchants to provide PAGA’s services to themselves or third-party clients. The Paga Merchant Services are:

• Get Transaction Details
  This service allows the merchant to verify the status and details of an executed transaction using the pre-shared transaction reference number.
• Get Transaction Details By Invoice Number
  This service allows the merchant to verify the status and details of the executed transaction using the invoice number.
• Get Process Details
  This service allows the merchant to verify the status and details of an executed process.
• Reconciliation Report
  This service allows the merchant to get any settlement reconciliation items generated for payments intended for the merchant made through the platform.
• Get Foreign Exchange Rate
  This service allows a merchant to get foreign exchange rates between two currencies.
• Refund Bill Pay
  This service method allows a merchant to refund Bill Pay transaction made to Paga by a customer.

3. Paga Authentication Details

As of this time, Paga Merchant authentication details have to be obtained directly from Paga. That will change in the near future. 

The steps required to obtain authentication details are outlined below.

• Create a Paga Business account
• Send and email to the Paga Operations Support team.
• You will be contacted by a Paga representative that will provide you with the information you require.

Once you have this setup, you're ready to start using the merchant services.
