@xolubi how far with 3D (OTP, SecureToken ) validation? Is that in the pipeline? If not, who bears the charge for fraudulent transactions ?

Lamidi_b_a · January 30, 2016, 8:25am

I’m not sure, but isn’t this a Nigerian bank thing? In the States, the banks bear this cost, that’s why there are insurance companies.

It’s not a Nigerian thing, OTP might be, but MasterCard SecureToken and VisaCard 3D Secure are not.

So far, with InterSwitch, prior to OTP, merchants used to bear such. Also, 2Checkout passes such charges to merchants.

I’ll bite. From your screenshot, there’s a padlock in the URL, and the company name with country of incorporation. That’s how you recognize websites with EV SSL (extended validation). Extended validation means the certificate provider (DigiCert in our case) was able to verify and validate the company’s business address, and country of incorporation from official records. That said, your browser displayed that… not us.

It is actually in the works. We are currently testing the implementation and will roll it out once we are done with polishing the experience. We intend to categorize businesses by risk level. The implementation on the demo page is for low risk ones and allows customers complete their payments in the most hitch free manner.

Bite harder and fix this clumsy display on the left in user account when using mobile.

xolubi · January 30, 2016, 9:22am

Thanks. What browser are you running that on?

How do i activate my account? When i clicked on activate…Nothing happens.

After i signed up i did not receive any mail from paystack saying confirm you email or something (i checked my spam box too) like that. @xolubi How do i also get the woo-commerce plugin.

Thanks

I have been trying to test the API but was getting 403 forbidden. After looking at it for a while I found out the http header requires User-Agent header. In case anyone runs into this issue

@xolubi The Paystack api seems to be offline. I can’t log into my dashboard or test my integrations. Are you guys upgrading stuff right now?

shollsman · February 3, 2016, 5:40pm

Thanks @Loop. The Paystack API is online. Everything looks good. Are you the same person i just emailed?

logbon72 · February 3, 2016, 7:04pm

@xolubi another question (since this is our own Paystack AMA ;)) Do you have function to split funds for multi-merchant platforms? Or it’s in the works ? Or not anytime soon?

xolubi · February 3, 2016, 9:37pm

You are officially the third person asking me this in the past three weeks. Clearly something to consider bubbling up the roadmap. Thank you.

By the way, ugh.
