Getting Started
Get up and running with the Paytrie API
This guide will walk you through the steps to start integrating with the Paytrie API.
Integration Options
Paytrie offers two primary integration methods:
Embedded Widget
Embed the Paytrie widget directly in your application using an iframe. Perfect for quick integrations with minimal backend code. Pre-fill user data via URL parameters.
API Integration
Build a custom integration using our REST API. Provides full control over the user experience and allows for deep integration with your existing systems.
Which option should I choose?
-
Choose the Embedded Widget if you want to:
- Get up and running quickly with minimal development time
- Offload KYC compliance and user management to Paytrie
- Avoid building and maintaining payment UI
- Pre-fill user information from your application
-
Choose API Integration if you need:
- Full control over the user interface and experience
- Custom workflows and business logic
- Direct integration with your backend systems
- Advanced features like programmatic transaction management
Many partners start with the embedded widget for quick time-to-market, then gradually migrate to API integration as their needs grow.
