Before you begin

Complete these steps before you send your first Egyptian mobile wallet payment through Boku:

Set up a Boku integration in your workspace. Contact your Payrails account team if Boku isn’t listed in your Payrails Portal yet.
Ask Boku to enable the wallets you want to accept on your Boku merchant account.
In the Payrails Portal, go to Settings → Integrations, open your Boku integration, select each wallet under Payment methods, and save.
Add each wallet as a payment option in your workflow.

Request fields for Boku

Send these fields in the authorize request, in addition to the standard authorize fields. Required fields must be present for the payment to succeed. Payrails sends Optional fields to the PSP when you include them.

Field	Status	Description
`meta.customer.country.code`	Required	Send `EG`. Payrails uses it to pick the Boku endpoint for the country and sends it to Boku as the payment country.
`meta.order.description`	Required	Between one and 255 characters. Sent to Boku as the item description.
`meta.clientContext`	Required	Payrails reads `osType`, `userAgent` and `screenWidth` to choose the mobile or desktop Boku page.
`meta.clientContext.ipAddress`	Optional	Sent to Boku as the customer’s IP address.
`meta.customer.reference`	Optional	Sent to Boku as your customer ID.

Authorize an Egyptian mobile wallet payment

Call authorize a payment with the wallet’s code as the paymentMethodCode. This example uses Orange Cash. The response includes the redirect to the Boku payment page.

Authorize request

{
  "amount": {
    "value": "350.00",
    "currency": "EGP"
  },
  "paymentComposition": [
    {
      "integrationType": "api",
      "paymentMethodCode": "orangeCash",
      "amount": {
        "value": "350.00",
        "currency": "EGP"
      }
    }
  ],
  "meta": {
    "customer": {
      "reference": "customer-1234",
      "country": {
        "code": "EG"
      }
    },
    "order": {
      "description": "Example Store order"
    },
    "clientContext": {
      "ipAddress": "203.0.113.10",
      "osType": "android",
      "userAgent": "Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; Android 14) Mobile"
    }
  },
  "returnInfo": {
    "success": "https://example.com/success",
    "error": "https://example.com/error"
  }
}

After the customer confirms the payment, Boku returns them to your success or error URL. Confirm the result through webhook notifications or the execution status before you fulfill the order.

How Boku handles Egyptian mobile wallets

Payrails sends every one of these wallets to Boku as the same Boku payment method. The customer completes the payment with their chosen wallet on the Boku payment page.
Boku notifies Payrails of the final result, and Payrails can also query the payment status with Boku.
To refund a payment, send meta.customer.country.code on the refund request too. Payrails uses it to reach the Boku endpoint for the country.
