Getting started with HwebPay is a simple, digital-first process. Follow this exhaustive guide to ensure your account is set up correctly for maximum success.
Phase 1: Registration
- Visit hwebpay.test/register.
- Email: Use a functional business email. This will be used for all critical notifications, settlement reports, and security alerts.
- Password: Create a strong password (minimum 8 characters, including symbols and numbers).
- Verification: Check your inbox for a verification code. Enter this code on the registration page to confirm your identity.
Phase 2: Business Profile
After verifying your email, you will be asked to describe your business:
- Business Name: This is what your customers will see on their bank statements (the "Descriptor").
- Business Category: Be as accurate as possible. This helps us assign the correct risk profile to your account and prevents transaction flags.
- Estimated Volume: Tell us roughly how much you expect to process monthly. Don't worry if you are just starting; you can update this as you grow.
Phase 3: Test Mode
Once you finish the initial setup, you are immediately dropped into Test Mode. In this mode:
- You can generate "Test" API keys.
- You can simulate successful and failed payments using our test card numbers.
- You cannot accept "Real" money yet.
- To start accepting real payments, you must complete the Compliance section.
