Before you begin

Complete these steps before you send your first Paga Wallet payment through Boku:

Set up a Boku integration in your workspace. Follow the Boku integration setup guide if you don’t have one yet.
Ask Boku to enable Paga Wallet on your Boku merchant account.
In the Payrails Portal, go to Settings → Integrations, open your Boku integration, select Paga Wallet under Payment methods, and save.
Add Paga 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 `NG`. 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.

    }
  },
