You type only the provider details here. Passwords and keys are stored encrypted and never shown again. The portal’s own internal keys are made for you, so there is nothing else to set up.

- Stay on the Connections tab. Find the Online payments card.
- In Online payments, choose Hubtel.
- Type the details from your Hubtel account:
- Hubtel API client id

- Press Save.
- Check the badge at the top right of the card. It should say Connected.
What you will see
