Product / Billing and network workflows

Connect M-Pesa payments with subscriber billing

Reduce manual payment follow-up with configured M-Pesa workflows. Paygrid supports payment requests, callback handling and rechecks; the available flow depends on the gateway you enable.

01

Configure your merchant integration

Choose the appropriate enabled M-Pesa or Paybill/Till integration and enter its required merchant credentials in the protected settings. Merchant account approval and gateway availability are prerequisites, not benefits automatically included with signup.

02

Follow the payment status

An STK request is a request to pay, not a successful payment. The customer completes the prompt; confirmation callbacks and reconciliation establish the resulting payment state. Use the payment status tools when a confirmation is delayed.

03

Verify the access step

After the payment workflow succeeds, confirm the intended plan or invoice is updated and the connected device allows service. An unreachable router, wrong plan mapping or portal configuration can still prevent access.

04

Separate platform charges from provider charges

Review current Paygrid platform pricing and the payment provider’s merchant fees independently. This page does not promise zero transaction fees or instant settlement in every case.

Questions and boundaries

Before you start

Does sending an STK push mean the invoice is paid?

No. A request must complete successfully and the payment state must be confirmed. Check the recorded status before assuming payment succeeded.

Are Paybill and Till configurations interchangeable?

Use the configuration for the actual integration and merchant account you have. Confirm the required credentials, permissions and callback setup in the gateway documentation.
