Transaction

Mobile Topup

This operation facilitates mobile number top-up. Agents can initiate this request by providing the SKU ID, obtained from the Product API, along with the amount, mobile, and corelationId. It's crucial for the agent to include a correlation ID, serving as a unique transaction identifier within their system, which can be utilized for reconciliation purposes.

Sandbox Environment: For testing purposes, any number can be passed. However, it's essential to ensure that the mobile number adheres to country-specific formatting guidelines. For example, in Jamaica, the country code is 1876, and the number length is 7 digits. Thus, any number in the format 1876XXXXXXX can be used.

Check Status of transaction by correlation ID

This operation checks the final status of a transaction using its correlation ID. This is very useful API method to check status of original transaction in case if you don't get response of original transaction within the timeout set by your system. To know the correct and final status of the original transaction we recommend that you to implement this API method to check status. This method will return you final status of the original transaction.

Please follow the steps below - 1. Send the correlation ID value with every RTR or PIN transaction. This is the unique ID from your system which will help us to identify the original transaction. 2. In case of a request timeout error, call Transaction Check Status (/transaction/status) method and pass the correlation ID from step #1. 3. You should call the Transaction Check Status (/transaction/status) method multiple times until you get a definite response of a success or a failure. Please refer to the documentation of Transaction Check Status (/transaction/status) method.

If the response code is "852," it means the transaction is still in progress. Any other response code should be considered the final status of the transaction. This could either be successful ("000") or failed (any code other than "000").
