Instant Payment Notifications (IPN)

This feature will enable you to set up your callback URL whenever customers make payments.

By default, you will receive a notification for both Failed and Successful Transactions, but you can specify to receive only successful transactions ONLY.

Setup

To receive IPNs:

1. Sign in on JengaHQ (opens in a new tab).
2. Select the Settings menu on the sidebar.
3. Choose the IPN submenu. You will be able to see a list of configured IPNs.
4. Click New IPN button on the top right of the dashboard.
5. Fill in your callback URL, username and password.

Being a Fintech Company, we embrace security in all aspects, and we provide a mechanism for you to get assured the notification is coming from the right source. We expect your URL to have a Basic Auth authentication, which will authenticate as per your username and password registered alongside your URL.
