Introduction

This document will introduce you to all the basic information you need to better understand our technologies

Flutterwave APIs provide robust payment solutions for your application. Unsure about where to begin? see our quick start to get started.

API Protocols

Our APIs follow the general principles of REST.

  1. We use standard GET, POST, PUT requests to communicate and HTTP response codes to show status and errors.
  2. You can expect all responses to be returned as JSON.
  3. The API request should have a Content-Type of application/json.
  4. All endpoints require authentication with your API Keys.

API status

You can track the status of our services at status.flutterwave.com


Postman collection

The postman collection is a great way to quickly explore our APIs without writing code. It contains pre-formatted requests and response examples. To start interacting with the collection, add your API keys and adjust the mock data.
