Overview

Cardless withdrawal, commonly known as Paycode, enables users to access their accounts and withdraw money without a physical card. In simple terms, Paycode is a digital payment feature that lets users of any wallet service initiate withdrawals. It allows beneficiaries to withdraw cash from supported ATMs, or merchants without needing a physical card; instead, they use a 10-14-digit code.

Types of Paycode Integration

There are two Paycode integration methods available on our platform:

1. Single Paycode Integration: Achieved through the Paycode API.
2. Bulk Paycode Integration: Accomplished via the Bulk Paycode portal.

Generating Single Paycode via the API

We provide APIs that empower you to create a seamless experience for your users. You can use the single paycode system to generate individual pay codes for your users. The Single Paycode System allows you to create a single Paycode in one go. Users provide transaction details, and based on this information, the tokenization system generates the Paycode. Later, when the user or a third party with proper authentication information requests to complete the transaction, the system authenticates the Paycode.

📘

Integration of the Paycode APIs into your platform (your application) is necessary to generate single Paycodes for your users.

Generating Bulk Paycodes via the Portal

The Bulk Paycode System enables you to generate multiple Paycodes simultaneously. These bulk Paycodes are applicable for the same transactions and channels as the single Paycodes. It's important to note that the Bulk Paycode System comes with a user-friendly portal accessible at https://paycode.myverveworld.com/, This portal enables users to effortlessly generate multiple Paycodes simultaneously without requiring technical expertise – meaning you don't have to be technically savvy or a programmer.

Note: Bulk Paycode integration is also achievable through APIs. If you possess technical expertise and wish to integrate using the Bulk Paycode API, please refer to the detailed documentation here
