Getting Started

Welcome to Reevit. Whether you are a business owner looking to automate your billing or a developer building the next big fintech app, this guide will get you live in minutes.

🏢 Step 1: Business Onboarding (No-Code)

Before writing any code, you need to set up your business environment in the Reevit Dashboard.

Create your Organization: Sign up and name your organization (e.g., “Acme Corp”).
Connect a Provider: Navigate to Connections and add your first PSP (e.g., Paystack or Stripe). This is our “Bring Your Own Key” model.
Configure a Workflow: Go to Workflows and set up a simple “Slack Notification” for successful payments so your team stays informed.

💻 Step 2: Developer Setup

Once your organization is ready, it’s time to integrate the Reevit API.

The fast path: one command. The Reevit CLI sets your whole project up for you — browser login (no key copying), stack detection, SDK install, env wiring, and working webhook + checkout code:

brew install reevit-platform/tap/reevit   # or: npm i -g @reevit/cli
cd your-project
reevit init

Then prove everything works, signature verification included:

reevit doctor --webhook-url http://localhost:3000/api/webhooks/reevit

Prefer to wire things manually? The steps below do the same by hand.

1. Get your API Keys

Navigate to Developers → API Keys. You will need your Secret Key (starts with pfk_live_) and your Organization ID.

2. Install the SDK

We recommend using our official SDKs for the best experience, including automatic retries and type safety.

# TypeScript / Node.js
npm install @reevit/node

# Python
pip install reevit

💳 Step 3: Process a Payment

Here is how you create a simple payment intent using our SDK.

import { Reevit } from '@reevit/node';

const reevit = new Reevit(
  process.env.REEVIT_API_KEY!,
  process.env.REEVIT_ORG_ID!
);

const payment = await reevit.payments.createIntent({
  amount: 5000,
  currency: 'GHS',
  method: 'mobile_money',
  country: 'GH',
  customer_id: 'cust_123',
  reference: 'ORD-123',
  metadata: {
    order_id: 'ORD-123'
  }
});

console.log('Payment ID:', payment.id);

🔄 Step 4: Go Live with Webhooks

To keep your application in sync with real-world payment events, you must configure a Webhook.

Go to Developers → Webhooks.
Enter your endpoint URL (e.g., https://api.yourdomain.com/webhooks/reevit).
Reevit will now push standardized events to your server regardless of which payment provider processed the transaction.
