Register your Endpoint to get Notifications

You can register your endpoint, which allows you to receive notifications whenever your end-user makes a successful payment or declines/cancels payment. Webhooks are configured separately for the production and sandbox environments.

Subscribe to a webhook to receive updates on your user's payments using the following endpoint:
