Ref. Multibanco

Multibanco is the most popular payment method in Portugal, allowing consumers to pay via online banking or in cash at a bank branch.

🚧

Expiration

The payment must be completed in seven days.

How it works

It works as an async payment method, which means: when you create a payment, we receive a response from Multibanco that the payment was created and we should wait for the customer. So, differently from other methods, our transaction stays with a processing status. As soon as the customer do the payment, Multibanco system should notify us, and then we update the payment to success or failed. The customer can do the payment through any ATM or online banking, by setting the payment data returned on the Store request.

Create payment
