No payment UI to build. We host the checkout.

Fast Integration

Launch in days, not months

Create a checkout session with a single API call. PayMongo hosts the checkout, so there's no payment UI to build, secure, or maintain.

A checkout session created from a single backend API call

Payment Gateway

Integrate once to accept more payments

One integration unlocks cards, e-wallets, QR Ph, online banking, and more. New payment methods are added automatically.

Cards, e-wallets, QR Ph, and online banking available through one integration

Secure Payments

Leave payment security to us

Card data never touches your servers. We host the checkout, and include 3DS Secure and fraud protection by default.

From signup to your first live payment

Signing up and getting API keys from the PayMongo Dashboard
Step 1Under 5 minutes

Sign up and get your API keys

You're in the PayMongo Dashboard in minutes. Test keys are available immediately — no approval wait, no sales call required.

Creating a Checkout Session from the backend with a single API call
Step 2Under an hour

Create a Checkout Session from your backend

One API call sends your line items and customer details to PayMongo. We return a checkout URL. That's the full extent of your frontend work.

Redirecting the customer to the PayMongo-hosted checkout page to pay
Step 3Real-time

Redirect your customer. We handle the rest.

Your customer lands on a PayMongo-hosted checkout page and pays using their preferred method. A receipt is sent automatically. You receive a webhook the moment payment clears.

Why choose Hosted Checkout?

Building your own checkout gives you full control — but also full responsibility. Hosted Checkout lets you keep the integration while we handle the payment experience.

  • Maintain the payment experience

Questions, answered

No. Payment Links are for merchants sharing a URL manually — no backend required. Checkout is an API-driven, developer-built integration where you control the session creation, line items, and redirect flow programmatically. It's built for websites, apps, and platforms, not manual transactions.

Most developers complete a working test integration in under 2 hours. You create a Checkout Session via the API, receive a URL, and redirect your customer to it. PayMongo hosts the checkout page and handles everything from there. Full documentation, test keys, and sandbox mode are available immediately after signup.

PayMongo Checkout supports cards (Visa, Mastercard), local and regional e-wallets, QR, BNPL, and major online banks. When PayMongo adds new payment methods, they become available in your checkout automatically — no reintegration needed.

No. Because PayMongo hosts the checkout page and handles all cardholder data, your integration scope is significantly reduced. You inherit PayMongo's PCI DSS Level 1 compliance without needing your own audit. 3D Secure authentication and fraud detection are also built in.

PayMongo Checkout has no setup fee and no monthly subscription. You're only charged a transaction fee on successful payments. There's no minimum volume and no long-term contract — you can start testing for free immediately after signing up.

Start accepting payments instead of building checkout.

Get your API keys, integrate once, and start accepting payments with a secure, PayMongo-hosted checkout.
