Payzah is a payment gateway built for merchants who need a reliable, secure way to accept online payments. Whether you want a fully hosted checkout experience or granular control over every payment flow, Payzah gives you two clear integration paths so you can go live with confidence — without reinventing your infrastructure.

Take your first payment in 5 minutes

Copy one request, run it, and get a live sandbox payment link. No account needed — use our public test key.

Supported Payment Methods

Payzah supports the most widely used payment methods in the region, all available through a single API:

K-Net

Kuwait’s national debit card network, accepted across all integration types.

VISA & Mastercard

VISA credit and debit cards processed securely through the Payzah platform.

Apple Pay

Frictionless mobile and web payments for customers using Apple devices.

Integration Approaches

Payzah offers two integration methods to match your development requirements and timeline:

Transit Payment Page

A fully hosted, single-page checkout that supports all payment methods out of the box. Ideal when you want to go live quickly with minimal code.

Direct Integration

Integrate each payment method individually for full control over the user interface and payment logic. Best when your checkout must match your brand precisely.

How It Works

Every Payzah integration follows the same high-level flow, regardless of which method you choose:
1

Register a Merchant Account

Sign up via Payzah App, you can download it from payzah.com to create your merchant account and receive your private API key.
2

Configure Your Integration

Choose your integration method — Transit Payment Page or Direct Integration — and implement the API calls in your preferred language (JSP, ASP.NET, PHP, or Java).
3

Test Your Checkout

Use the Payzah test environment to verify your payment flows, error handling, and redirect logic before going live.
4

Deploy to Production

Switch your API key and endpoint to production, confirm your environment is secure, and start accepting real payments.

For AI Agents and LLMs

This documentation is published in machine-readable formats. If you are an AI coding assistant, an agent, or a developer feeding these docs into a model, use these instead of crawling the site page by page. For example, https://docs.payzah.site/docs/guides/refund.md returns the refund guide as raw Markdown.
Start with llms-full.txt. One request gives a model the complete integration picture — endpoints, error codes, refund rules, and plugin setup — without crawling.
All four resources are public and require no authentication. If your environment restricts outbound network access, add docs.payzah.site to its allowed domains.

Next Steps

Prerequisites

Set up your merchant account, obtain your API key, and understand the security responsibilities before writing any code.
