How to retrieve your Store's API Credentials

When integrating you will require a Safekey, Webservice (aka SOAP) username and password in order for your website/application to interact with the PayU services. These details are the unique identifiers PayU uses to identify transactions coming to your store.

 

Once your merchant portal account has been activated you will need to retrieve your store's production details. If you have not yet activated your merchant portal account please view instructions here

Please pass the Safekey, webservice username and password to your developer/technical team in order to integrate your website with PayU
