Webhooks: Simple Notifications

• What they are: Webhooks are like automated messages from Fiablepay to your system.
• How they work: When something important happens in Fiablepay (like a payment), it sends a message to a specific web address (URL) you provide.
• Why they’re useful: You get instant updates without having to constantly check with Fiablepay.

What Fiablepay Webhooks Tell You

• Checkout Status: Changes in the overall state of a checkout session
• Payment Attempts: Details about each try to make a payment (e.g., successful, failed).
• Refund Status: Updates about any refunds processed.

When Webhooks Are Helpful

• Asynchronous Payments: For payment methods that take time (like bank transfers), webhooks notify you as soon as the funds arrive.”
• Real-Time Actions: You can automatically start your fulfillment process when a payment completes.
• No Manual Checks: You don’t have to keep polling Fiablepay’s API; it sends updates to you.

Think of it this way:

Instead of constantly calling Fiablepay asking “Has the payment come through yet?”, Fiablepay calls you when the payment arrives.

In a nutshell: Webhooks are Fiablepay’s way of keeping you instantly informed about important payment events so you can automate your business workflows.
