FawryPay
FawryPay is an alternative payment method in Egypt. With FawryPay, customers can enjoy a seamless checkout experience, with a choice of fulfilling their payments in cash or cards in Fawry stores and kiosks, as well as using their myFawry in-app wallet and saved cards.
Introduction
FawryPay is a widely used alternative payment method in Egypt that offers a convenient way for customers to pay for goods and services. Integrating FawryPay with Payrails allows you to provide a fast, easy-to-use payment option for your customers while leveraging our platform to route the payment to any Payment Service Provider (PSP). This guide will explain the process of integrating FawryPay into your app or website using Payrails.
Pre-requisites
Before you start accepting FawryPay payments with Payrails, there are a few requirements you must meet:
- Integrate with Payrails using one of our SDKs or our API
- Configure a new integration account for FawryPay via one of the following Payment Service Providers:
Fawry, dLocal, and coming soon (Flutterwave, Nuvei) - Enable FawryPay as a payment option.
- Make sure you're sending the FawryPay specific meta fields (found under Merchant configurations -> Meta fields on your Payrails dashboard and in the examples below) in your requests.
Ways to integrate FawryPay
Payrails SDK
The simplest way to use FawryPay with Payrails is to use our drop-in in your checkout flow. With this integration type, no additional development work is required to accept payments with FawryPay.
Server-to-server integration
The simplest way to use FawryPay is by completely managing your own client-side implementation, and using Payrails APIs with a server-to-server integration to process payments with FawryPay. With this approach, follow the documentation below to build FawryPay into your applications:
Parse FawryPay from lookup response
With a server-to-server integration, you can call our lookup payment options endpoint to get available payment options and relevant configurations for each payment method. As the example below, you can see fawrypay
returned as an option of the paymentCompositionOptions
. You can use this value later to authorize payments with Payrails as you can see in the next sections.
{
"name": "lookup",
"actionId": "0bb6413e-cabb-4074-99e6-9e815c69f25b",
"executedAt": "2024-05-08T12:33:21.527395295Z",
"data": {
"paymentCompositionOptions": [
{
"integrationType": "api",
"paymentMethodCode": "fawrypay",
"description": "FawryPay"
}
]
},
"links": {
"execution": "http://payrails-api.staging.payrails.io/merchant/workflows/payment-acceptance/executions/83c534ac-13b7-43e6-b04b-f3e8b4eb4424",
"authorize": {
"method": "POST",
"href": "http://payrails-api.staging.payrails.io/merchant/workflows/payment-acceptance/executions/83c534ac-13b7-43e6-b04b-f3e8b4eb4424/authorize"
}
}
}
Pass FawryPay payment method in request to authorize payment with Payrails
You can then make a request to our authorize a payment endpoint with fawrypay
as the paymentMethodCode
. See an example below:
{
"executionId": "c0fd1c51-e709-47e5-bfd1-5d1c98f7d990",
"amount": {
"value": "1000",
"currency": "EGP"
},
"paymentComposition": [{
"integrationType": "api",
"paymentMethodCode": "fawrypay",
"amount": {
"value": "1000",
"currency": "EGP"
}
}],
"meta": {
"order": {
"lines": [{
"id": "UUID",
"name": "Order Name",
"quantity": 1,
"unitPrice": {
"currency": "EGP",
"value": "1000"
}
}]
}
},
"returnInfo": {
"success": "https://mysuccessurl.com",
"error": "https://myerrorurl.com"
}
}
