Transaction verification

This shows you how to verify transactions using the transaction ID

After a successful charge, you need to verify that the payment was successful with PayChangu before giving value to your customer on your website. For every transaction, you must supply a transaction ID

Below is a sample code of how to implement server-side validation

cURL

curl -X GET "https://api.paychangu.com/verify-payment/{tx_ref}"
-H "Accept: application/json"
-H "Authorization: Bearer {secret_key}"
