What problem does it solve?

Provides a complete, secure blueprint for implementing Paystack payment flows (initialization, verification, and webhook processing) across web apps to prevent fraud and orphaned records.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • End-to-end Paystack payment integration for one-time payments, subscriptions, and webhooks across Next.js and Express.
  • Safety-first patterns: raw webhook signature verification, Kobo-based amounts, idempotent webhook handling, and strict reference handling.
  • Reference patterns and framework guides for multiple JS/TS stacks, including Next.js and Express.

Quick Start

Implement Paystack initialization, verification, and webhook handling in your app using Next.js or Express, following the Agent Execution Spec for safety.

Frequently Asked Questions about paystack-integration

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I verify Paystack webhook signatures securely in Node.js?▼

Verify Paystack webhook signatures securely by checking the raw request body against the Paystack secret hash. This Skill enforces raw webhook body verification to prevent payload tampering and ensure authentic payment events.

How do I integrate Paystack end-to-end payment flows in Next.js?▼

Integrate Paystack end-to-end payment flows in Next.js by using this Skill's framework-specific references for payment initialization, verification, and webhook processing to prevent fraud and orphaned records.

Why do my Paystack payment amounts fail during initialization?▼

Paystack payment amounts fail during initialization if not handled correctly in Kobo. This Skill enforces Kobo-based amount handling and stores the Paystack reference after initialization to ensure strict safety invariants.

Can I use this Paystack integration approach with Express and framework-agnostic backends?▼

Yes, you can use this Paystack integration approach with Express and framework-agnostic backends. It provides reference patterns and framework guides for multiple JavaScript and TypeScript stacks to handle one-time payments and subscriptions.

What is the best way to prevent orphaned records in Paystack subscription webhooks?▼

The best way to prevent orphaned records in Paystack subscription webhooks is to implement idempotent webhook handling. This Skill enforces idempotency and strict reference handling to ensure database consistency during payment processing.
