Skip to main contentUse this checklist before sending live traffic to Pagou.
Required checks
- Production credentials are stored in your secret manager.
- Your backend uses the production base URL and production token only through configuration.
external_ref is persisted for every create operation.
- Webhook ingestion returns
200 OK quickly and deduplicates by event ID.
- Reconciliation exists for both payments and transfers.
- Logs capture
requestId, your internal reference, and the Pagou resource ID.
Strongly recommended checks
- Sandbox happy paths have been run for Pix and card, if both are in scope.
- Refund and cancel workflows have an operator-facing playbook.
- Alerting exists for webhook failures, retry storms, and reconciliation backlog.
- Finance and support teams know where to find
requestId and resource IDs.
- Frontend fulfillment waits for webhook or reconciliation, not only the initial create response.
