Webhooks

Webhooks

Webhooks is a comprehensive service designed to facilitate real-time event subscription and notification delivery.

You can use the Payblr PSP API to create and update webhook endpoints and specify desired events for notification for the endpoints. Additionally, you can retrieve historical or missed events on demand, update your details, and manage event subscriptions.

Webhooks provide a robust platform for efficient event-driven interactions, retrieving notification details, subscribing to events, and re-sending notifications. The advantage of webhooks is that there is no persistent open connection to the system where you need to keep filtering for events that you are interested in. It is an asynchronous mechanism where you wait for the system to notify you. The HTTP payload will contain the details of the event. Before using webhooks, you will need to setup a URL that can listen for any alerts.

Key Features

Payblr’s Webhooks offers several powerful capabilities:

  • Real-time Notifications — Instantly receive notifications as soon as events occur, so your system stays perfectly synchronized with card activity, transactions, and other important updates.

  • Full Self-Service Control — Easily create, configure, and manage your webhook endpoints and event subscriptions directly from the API.

  • Consistent & Reliable Framework — Benefit from a well-designed, uniform webhook system that ensures a smooth and predictable integration experience.

  • Scalable Architecture — Our webhooks are built to grow with your business, efficiently handling increasing event volumes and new use cases.

  • Reliable Delivery with Automatic Retries — Built-in retry logic and error handling ensure events are delivered even if your endpoint is temporarily unavailable.

  • Historical Event Access — Retrieve and replay past events whenever needed, so no critical information is ever lost.

Event Notifications

Once you have configured a webhook endpoint and subscribed to specific events, Payblr will automatically send notifications whenever relevant activity occurs on the platform.

An event is any significant activity outside your system — for example, a card being activated, a transaction being approved or declined, or a fraud rule being triggered that results in the card being suspended.

When such an event happens, Payblr sends a webhook containing the details, allowing you to take immediate action.
