How it works – Paybill and Till Numbers

With STK Push Enabled

At the checkout page, the client clicks on the “Complete Payment” button. This sends a request to the MPESA system indicating the amount to be paid by the client, the client’s phone number, and your pay bill or till number.

The request is processed and a push notification is sent to the client’s phone number with a prompt to enter MPESA PIN only.

On completing the payment from the phone number, your website redirected the client to the next page which displays the order details and payment details.

With STK Push Disabled

A client is presented with instructions on how to pay using MPESA from the checkout page. When a client makes payments to your MPESA Till or Pay Bill Number, a confirmation request is sent to your web server.

  1. The gateway decodes and processes the posted data and saves the data into your database
  2. The client keys in Transaction Code received from MPESA and clicks on “Verify Payment and Place Order“
  3. The system looks up for transactions originating from the Clients Phone that has not been used and sums up the amount. If the total sum is less than the order total, the client is notified and asked to top up the difference.
  4. When the paid amount is enough to fully settle the order, the order is placed and all used transactions closed to avoid further use of the transactions
