Error Handling
After submitting an API call to OPay, you receive a response back to inform you that
your request was received and processed. A successful OPay API should return a status code 00,
meanwhile, in a situation where any payment processing error occurred, you will receive an error code with a
message to describe the reason of the error. A sample error response can be found below.
{
"code": "02006",
"message": "payment not found."
}
Depending on the HTTP status code of the response, you should build some logic to handle any errors that a request or the system may return. A list of possible potential error codes that you may receive can be found below.
| Error Code | Error Message |
|---|---|
| 02000 | authentication failed. |
| 02001 | request params not valid. |
| 02006 | not found. |
| 02002 | merchant not configured with this function. |
| 02007 | merchant not available. |
| 50003 | service not available, please try again. |
