Send airtime
Send airtime to phone numbers
Supported by Basic, Pro & Pro+ plans
With the Xente API, you can send airtime in three easy steps.
Step 1 - Verify person
To ensure you are sending airtime to the correct beneficiary, please first verify the person who will be receiving airtime using this endpoint
Step 2 - Post a airtime transaction
Once you verify that you are sending money to the correct person, post a airtime transaction using this endpoint
Step 3 - Receive Instant Payment Notification (IPN)
All transactions on Xente are asynchronous. Therefore, after you POST a airtime transaction, you need to wait for a success (or failure) response using webhooks called Instant Payment Notifications (IPN).
