Accept Payments for Partner

Before creating payments for your partner's account, Platform needs to make sure several settings have been enabled on the partner's account level

Payment method is active on partner’s account level

The Platform needs to make sure all the desired payment methods have already been activated on the partner’s account level.

If your partner’s account is: 

• Owned account

Once the Platform has activated a payment method, your partner’s account will have that payment method active on their level automatically* 

* See section limitation on settings sync for existing Owned accounts

• Managed account 

Your partner needs to activate each payment method through its own dashboard. They can activate any payment method by going to Payment Method Settings and click “Activate” on respective payment method. 

Supported payment methods for partner’s accounts

The following countries are supported: 

1. Indonesia
2. Philippines

Flow & Implementation

Use the Platform account API key and request creating payments via API eg: Create Invoice with additional parameter for-user-id on the header. Put the id of the partner's account that you want to make a payment for as the value of parameter for-user-id.

Here are some examples of creating payments flow for partner’s account:

Create xenInvoice for your partner

Create Fixed Virtual Account for your partner

Receiving Callbacks for your partners’ accounts events

To receive Callbacks on events occurring on your partners’ accounts, you will need to set relevant Callback URLs on the partner’s account. For example, to receive invoice paid Callbacks for your partner, you have to make sure that your partner’s account has already been set for Invoice paid callback URL.

If your partner’s account is: 

• Owned accounts

Once the master account has set a callback URL, it will also be set for all Owned accounts callback URL automatically* eg: Master account has set Invoice paid callback URL, the same callback URL will also be set for the Owned account Invoice paid callback URL. 

* See section limitation on settings sync for existing Owned accounts

• Managed accounts

Your partner needs to set their own callback URL. There are two ways to set Managed account callback URL: 

1. Navigate to Callback URL Settings in their own dashboard 
2. Set callback URL via API 

Limitation on Settings sync for existing Owned accounts

There’s a known limitation where if the Platform makes a new/change settings on their account, then this setting would not be synced automatically to all the existing Owned accounts created prior to the new settings being made. This limitation happens to settings such as: 

• Activate payment method 

If Platform has already created an Owned account before payment methods (e.g: OVO, Alfamart, etc.) are active on platform account level, those payment methods will only sync automatically for the newly created Owned accounts and not for the existing Owned accounts. 

• Callback URL setup

If Platform has already created an Owned account before the callback URL is set up or changed  on platform account level, the new callback URL will only sync automatically for the newly created Owned accounts and not for the existing Owned accounts. 

• Customized Invoice settings 

If Platform has already created an Owned account before making a new change on Customize Invoice settings eg: Untick the payment method option, the changes will only sync automatically for the newly created Owned accounts and not for the existing Owned accounts.

To resolve Platform settings out of sync issues for Owned accounts, you can try the following: 

1. We suggest that Platforms make/change any settings before creating production Owned accounts during the first time integration process
2. For callback URL settings out of sync, Platform can set up callback URL for Owned account via API
3. For active payment methods and customize invoice settings out of sync, please contact us to help with the sync
