Authentication

We use API keys to authenticate your requests to our API. If you don't already have an API key you can request access to sandbox here.

⚠️ Your API keys allows you to create payment objects and more on your behalf, so make sure to keep them secure. Do not under any circumstances share your API keys or store them in publicly accessible places such as code repositories or client-side source code.

Authentication is performed via Basic Auth (username:password). Provide the API key as the username value and leave the password empty.

HTTPS is required for all API requests, including authentication. Plain HTTP requests to any endpoint will fail.

Below is an example of an authenticated request to our API. You must replace sandbox_api_key_here with your own secret API key.

curl https://sandbox-api.ztlment.com/v1/payment-objects \
	-X POST \
  -u sandbox_api_key_here: \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
	-d '{
	    "amount": 1000,
			"currency": "EUR",
			"payer": "ACC_754215455221",
			"payee": "EXT_289745627252",
			"iban_memo":"Powered By ZTLment"
	  }'
