Account Activation

After KYC approval, DigetPay activates your merchant account. You gain access to the merchant dashboard and receive the credentials required to start your integration in the Fin staging environment.

What gets activated

Item	Staging	Production
Dashboard login	`https://pay-staging.digetpay.com`	`https://pay.digetpay.com`
API key (`x-api-key`)	Issued for Fin	Issued at go-live
Webhook configuration	Available in staging	Enabled at go-live
SDK tokens	Fin environment	Production environment

Reference: See the Environments Overview documentation for environment URLs and configuration details.

First login

Open the dashboard URL for your environment
Sign in using the credentials provided in your DigetPay onboarding email
Complete your merchant profile, including business name, contact details, and settlement information if prompted
Navigate to Settings → API Credentials — Reference: See Dashboard: API Credentials documentation

Store your API key securely. Once a key is masked, it cannot be retrieved in plain text. If you lose access to the key, generate a new one through the dashboard or contact the DigetPay integration team.

Staging API key issuance

Channel	When
Onboarding email	Key may be included after activation

Your staging API key works only against:

https://fin-api.digetpay.com/v1

Verify activation

Run a test payment link creation using your staging API key. Replace YOUR_STAGING_KEY with your actual key:

curl -s -X POST "https://fin-api.digetpay.com/v1/payment/checkout/intiate" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_STAGING_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"merchantOrderId":"ACTIVATION-TEST","amount":0.20,"customerPhone":"501223324","successUrl":"https://fin-admin.digetpay.com/pay/checkout/success","failureUrl":"https://fin-admin.digetpay.com/pay/checkout/failure"}'

A successful 201 response containing a redirectUrl confirms that your staging account and API credentials are active.
