This integration enables you to initiate payments directly on a Nomba physical payment terminal from your backend system. It allows seamless coordination between your client, server, and a Nomba terminal for in-person payments.

How It Works

Push Payment to Terminal

​
Flow Description

  1. Customer Orders an Item
    The customer initiates a purchase through your client application.
  2. Client Sends Order to Server
    Your frontend sends the order details (including orderId, amount, and currency) to your backend.
  3. Server Sends Payment Request to Nomba
    Your backend uses the POST /v1/terminals/payment-request/{terminalId} endpoint to trigger a payment on the specific terminal.

    ​
    Endpoint: POST /v1/terminals/payment-request/{terminalId}

    Request Body Schema: TerminalPaymentRequest 
    {
  "merchantTxRef": "55555555",
  "amount": 1000,
  "currency": "NGN"
}
  4. Nomba Pushes Payment to Terminal
    The terminal receives a payment prompt and displays the amount to the customer.
  5. Customer Makes Payment on Terminal
    The customer completes the payment using a supported payment method.
  6. Nomba Sends Webhook to Your Server
    Upon successful payment, Nomba sends a webhook to your server with the payment confirmation and metadata.

​
Webhook Notification

Your server must be able to receive webhook notifications from Nomba. Ensure your webhook endpoint is secured and reliable.
