Powerlynx now supports M-PAiSA — Vodafone’s mobile money service in Fiji. Connecting it lets your customers pay for Wi-Fi vouchers directly from their M-PAiSA wallet, with no bank card required. The gateway settles in FJD and is available exclusively for Fiji.
More Ways to Monetize Your Wi-Fi Hotspot with Powerlynx
M-PAiSA joins the growing list of payment gateways Powerlynx already supports — including Vodacom M-PESA, Selcom, MTN MoMo, M-Pesa, 1Voucher, FNB Voucher, Netcash, DPO Pay, PayPal, Stripe, Payfast, Xendit, Paystack, and more. Your customers always have a payment option that works for them.
How Customers Pay with M-PAiSA
When the customer chooses M-PAiSA at checkout, Powerlynx creates the order and sends them to Vodafone’s own payment page, where they enter their wallet details and confirm. Unlike some other mobile money gateways, Powerlynx does not ask the customer for a phone number beforehand — the number is entered on Vodafone’s page as part of the payment itself.
Powerlynx always confirms the payment by asking M-PAiSA for the transaction status directly — not relying on the customer’s return to Powerlynx or on Vodafone’s callback alone. That means a payment still completes if the customer closes the browser on Vodafone’s page.
How to Start Accepting M-PAiSA Payments
You need a Vodafone Fiji merchant account. You will need the Client ID (your M-PAiSA Business ID) and Client secret issued during merchant onboarding. If you do not have them, contact Vodafone merchant support.
Once you have your credentials, ensure Fiji is selected under Config → System → Localization — the gateway only appears in the payment gateway list when your country is Fiji. Then go to Config → Finance → Payment Gateways → M-PAiSA and fill in the form.
Enable M-PAiSA for each location that should offer it: go to Locations, open a location, switch to the Payment Gateways tab, and turn on M-PAiSA. If it’s disabled, customers at that location won’t see it as a payment option.
