Configuration to settlement
How PayTabs fits the Invoice Crowd payment boundary
Connection, customer checkout and final settlement are separate stages. Read the status and limitations before showing the method on a live invoice.
Connect the merchant account
Credentials and mode stay tied to the selected business.
Confirm provider eligibility before rollout
PayTabs controls eligible merchant regions, endpoint availability, currencies and fees.
- Merchant country and account
- Invoice and settlement currency
- Provider fees and review
Understand the customer path
Availability is evaluated before a customer enters checkout.
Use the supported one-time flow
The hosted flow writes an immutable attempt, restricts regional endpoints, verifies the raw callback HMAC and queries PayTabs before accepting authorized status.
- Server-owned amount
- Bound invoice allocation
- Provider-controlled payment step
Read the recurring-payment boundary separately
Automatic PayTabs subscription setup and callback mutation are retired.
- One-time and recurring differ
- Existing bindings may be compatibility-only
- Retired creators stay unavailable
Verify before recording money
The final local state follows provider evidence, not the browser.
Match the commercial record exactly
Callback HMAC, authenticated payment query, exact profile/account, allocation, amount, currency and authorized state.
- Merchant account and mode
- Allocation, amount and currency
- Successful provider state
Keep the current limitation visible
Only the verified hosted one-time flow is active. A posted status or automatic subscription callback cannot settle an invoice.
- No inferred settlement
- Pending stays pending
- Mismatch fails closed

-
Invoice data
Amount, currency and allocation are derived from the current server-side invoice state.
-
Customer result
A provider screen or browser return is a locator, not sufficient settlement proof.
-
Retries
Durable attempts and stable provider identities prevent an uncertain response from becoming an unbounded duplicate payment.
-
Provider fees
Gateway fees, exchange costs and settlement timing come from the merchant agreement, not the Invoice Crowd subscription.
-
Alternative gateways
Configure another active provider when this gateway does not support the merchant, customer, currency or collection model.
