Setup
Back to topTo enable the PayUMoney extension, log in to your Checkfront account and navigate to Manage > E-Commerce, making sure the Payment tab is active.
Locate the PayUMoney tile and click on the button labeled PayUMoney. The button will turn blue when you hover your mouse over it.
Before continuing, make sure you have an active PayUMoney account as this is required to properly activate the Payment Providers in Checkfront.
If you don't yet have a PayUMoney account, you can create one here.
Assuming you have an account setup and ready to go, continue reading the document below.

Payment Page RedirectPlease note that PayUMoney's API does not provide the ability to use Checkfront's built-in payment form when it comes to your customers making their payment. Instead, they must click on a pay now button which will redirect them to PayUMoney's website to complete their payment. Additionally, PayUMoney does not have virtual terminal functionality, so you will not be able to process payments through the Checkfront Booking Manager on behalf of your customers. |
Sandbox Mode
Back to topIt is recommended you complete a test of your Payment Providers before processing any live transactions.
When activating the Payment Providers, you will notice a checkbox labeled Enable Sandbox Mode.
By activating this mode you can create a series of fake transactions through your booking form using the credit card credentials below.
Don't forget to exit sandbox mode before taking your first live payment though!
