Mobile Money

Mobile money is currently available in Ghana, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Senegal, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Cameroon, Mali, Guinea Conakry.
How it works
1.
To initiate a mobile money transaction, make a request to the mobile money service with the payments/initiates endpoint.
2.
When the request is made you are expected to get a "Transaction in progress" response with a code INP from SeerBit.
3.
Once the customer authorises the transaction from his mobile device, you will be notified via webhook with the final status of the transaction.
4.
​Verify the payment ​
Ensure your business has been approved for Mobile Money transactions before carrying out Mobile Money Transactions
Test transactions cannot be perfomed when paying via MOMO
