Activating a method creates a payment for your merchant. The catalog of providers and methods is shared by every merchant; your payment holds your credentials and rules.

Before you start

  • A dashboard role that can manage payments.
  • The method must be listed as available in Supported payment methods.
  • For providers other than cash: a contract with the provider and the credentials they issued. Each method’s page lists the exact fields.

Create the payment

1

Open Payments

In the dashboard, open your merchant and go to Payments, then create a new payment.
2

Pick the integration

Choose the provider and method.
3

Enter the connection settings

Fill in the fields the method asks for. Secret fields (private keys, webhook signatures, and any field whose name starts with secret_) are stored on Fire spark and never sent to apps, web, or kiosks.
4

Set availability

Choose the stores, channels, and fulfillment types where the method applies, and any amount conditions.

Optional settings

These keys work for every method. Leave them out to use the defaults.

Provider webhooks

When a method uses webhooks, configure this URL in the provider’s portal:
{provider} is the provider id, for example mercadopago. Fire spark verifies the signature with the webhook secret you entered in the connection settings. The method’s page says whether it needs a webhook.
