10-Minute H2H Quickstart

Get your first Host-to-Host payment running in under 10 minutes with this step-by-step guide.

Prerequisites

Yonobi merchant account with API keys
Development environment (Node.js, Python, or PHP)
Webhook endpoint capability

Step 1: Environment Setup (2 minutes)

Set your environment variables:

export YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT="https://sandbox-api.yonobi.com"
export YONOBI_API_KEY="your_sandbox_api_key"
export WEBHOOK_URL="https://your-server.com/webhook"

Step 2: Create Payment Request (3 minutes)

const axios = require('axios');

async function createPayment() {
  const response = await axios.post(
    `${process.env.YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT}/payments/h2h/1`,
    {
      name: "John Doe",
      email: "john@example.com",
      phoneNumber: "+1234567890",
      address: "123 Main St",
      city: "New York",
      state: "NY",
      postalCode: "10001",
      country: "US",
      amount: 10.00,
      unit: "USD",
      originDomain: "localhost",
      notifyUrl: process.env.WEBHOOK_URL,
      successUrl: "http://localhost:3000/success",
      failureUrl: "http://localhost:3000/failure"
    },
    {
      headers: {
        'X-API-Key': process.env.YONOBI_API_KEY,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
      }
    }
  );
  
  console.log('Payment created:', response.data);
  return response.data;
}

createPayment();

import requests
import os

def create_payment():
    response = requests.post(
        f"{os.getenv('YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT')}/payments/h2h/1",
        json={
            "name": "John Doe",
            "email": "john@example.com",
            "phoneNumber": "+1234567890",
            "address": "123 Main St",
            "city": "New York",
            "state": "NY",
            "postalCode": "10001",
            "country": "US",
            "amount": 10.00,
            "unit": "USD",
            "originDomain": "localhost",
            "notifyUrl": os.getenv('WEBHOOK_URL'),
            "successUrl": "http://localhost:3000/success",
            "failureUrl": "http://localhost:3000/failure"
        },
        headers={
            'X-API-Key': os.getenv('YONOBI_API_KEY'),
            'Content-Type': 'application/json'
        }
    )
    
    print('Payment created:', response.json())
    return response.json()

create_payment()

<?php
$endpoint = $_ENV['YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT'];
$apiKey = $_ENV['YONOBI_API_KEY'];
$webhookUrl = $_ENV['WEBHOOK_URL'];

$data = [
    'name' => 'John Doe',
    'email' => 'john@example.com',
    'phoneNumber' => '+1234567890',
    'address' => '123 Main St',
    'city' => 'New York',
    'state' => 'NY',
    'postalCode' => '10001',
    'country' => 'US',
    'amount' => 10.00,
    'unit' => 'USD',
    'originDomain' => 'localhost',
    'notifyUrl' => $webhookUrl,
    'successUrl' => 'http://localhost:3000/success',
    'failureUrl' => 'http://localhost:3000/failure'
];

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "$endpoint/payments/h2h/1");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, json_encode($data));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
    'X-API-Key: ' . $apiKey,
    'Content-Type: application/json'
]);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

echo 'Payment created: ' . $response;
?>

Step 3: Handle Webhook (3 minutes)

const express = require('express');
const crypto = require('crypto');
const app = express();

app.use(express.json());

app.post('/webhook', (req, res) => {
  const signature = req.headers['x-yonobi-signature'];
  const payload = JSON.stringify(req.body);
  
  // Verify webhook signature
  const expectedSignature = crypto
    .createHmac('sha512', process.env.WEBHOOK_SECRET)
    .update(payload)
    .digest('hex');
  
  if (signature !== expectedSignature) {
    return res.status(401).send('Invalid signature');
  }
  
  const { paymentRequestId, status, transactionId } = req.body;
  
  console.log(`Payment ${paymentRequestId} status: ${status}`);
  
  // Process payment status
  switch (status) {
    case 'completed':
      console.log('✅ Payment successful!');
      break;
    case 'failed':
      console.log('❌ Payment failed');
      break;
    case 'pending':
      console.log('⏳ Payment pending');
      break;
  }
  
  res.status(200).send('OK');
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
  console.log('Webhook server running on port 3000');
});

from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import hmac
import hashlib
import json
import os

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/webhook', methods=['POST'])
def webhook():
    signature = request.headers.get('X-Yonobi-Signature')
    payload = request.get_data()
    
    # Verify webhook signature
    expected_signature = hmac.new(
        os.getenv('WEBHOOK_SECRET').encode(),
        payload,
        hashlib.sha512
    ).hexdigest()
    
    if signature != expected_signature:
        return 'Invalid signature', 401
    
    data = request.json
    payment_id = data['paymentRequestId']
    status = data['status']
    
    print(f'Payment {payment_id} status: {status}')
    
    # Process payment status
    if status == 'completed':
        print('✅ Payment successful!')
    elif status == 'failed':
        print('❌ Payment failed')
    elif status == 'pending':
        print('⏳ Payment pending')
    
    return 'OK', 200

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(port=3000)

<?php
$signature = $_SERVER['HTTP_X_YONOBI_SIGNATURE'] ?? '';
$payload = file_get_contents('php://input');

// Verify webhook signature
$expectedSignature = hash_hmac('sha512', $payload, $_ENV['WEBHOOK_SECRET']);

if ($signature !== $expectedSignature) {
    http_response_code(401);
    exit('Invalid signature');
}

$data = json_decode($payload, true);
$paymentId = $data['paymentRequestId'];
$status = $data['status'];

echo "Payment $paymentId status: $status\n";

// Process payment status
switch ($status) {
    case 'completed':
        echo "✅ Payment successful!\n";
        break;
    case 'failed':
        echo "❌ Payment failed\n";
        break;
    case 'pending':
        echo "⏳ Payment pending\n";
        break;
}

http_response_code(200);
echo 'OK';
?>

Step 4: Check Payment Status (2 minutes)

async function checkPaymentStatus(paymentRequestId) {
  const response = await axios.get(
    `${process.env.YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT}/payment-requests/status/${paymentRequestId}`,
    {
      headers: {
        'X-API-Key': process.env.YONOBI_API_KEY
      }
    }
  );
  
  console.log('Payment status:', response.data);
  return response.data;
}

// Check status every 5 seconds
setInterval(() => {
  checkPaymentStatus('your_payment_request_id');
}, 5000);

import time

def check_payment_status(payment_request_id):
    response = requests.get(
        f"{os.getenv('YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT')}/payment-requests/status/{payment_request_id}",
        headers={'X-API-Key': os.getenv('YONOBI_API_KEY')}
    )
    
    print('Payment status:', response.json())
    return response.json()

# Check status every 5 seconds
while True:
    check_payment_status('your_payment_request_id')
    time.sleep(5)

<?php
function checkPaymentStatus($paymentRequestId) {
    $endpoint = $_ENV['YONOBI_H2H_ENDPOINT'];
    $apiKey = $_ENV['YONOBI_API_KEY'];
    
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "$endpoint/payment-requests/status/$paymentRequestId");
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, ["X-API-Key: $apiKey"]);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
    
    $response = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    
    echo "Payment status: $response\n";
    return json_decode($response, true);
}

// Check status
checkPaymentStatus('your_payment_request_id');
?>

Testing Your Integration

Test with Sandbox Data

Use these test values in sandbox:

{
  "name": "Test User",
  "email": "test@example.com",
  "phoneNumber": "+1234567890",
  "amount": 10.00,
  "unit": "USD"
}

Expected Flow

Payment Created → Status: pending
User Completes Payment → Webhook received
Payment Confirmed → Status: completed

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue	Solution
401 Unauthorized	Check API key in `X-API-Key` header
400 Bad Request	Validate required fields
Webhook not received	Check webhook URL and firewall
Invalid signature	Verify webhook secret

Debug Checklist

✅ API key is correct
✅ Webhook URL is accessible
✅ Webhook signature verification
✅ Required fields provided
✅ Amount format is correct
