OPay Server to Server APIs
OPay server to sever APIs are organized around REST. Our APIs:

We provide a sandbox staging environment for our developers to assure the integrity of their application logic in handling payments. This allows full testing of our APIs while, in the same time, keeping your live data unaffected. You can integrate with our online payment APIs in several ways. These range from using a pre-built integration, to building your own UI for full control over your checkout experience.
