This Flutterwave v3 PHP Library provides easy access to Flutterwave for Business (F4B) v3 APIs from php apps. It abstracts the complexity involved in direct integration and allows you to make quick calls to the APIs.
Available features include:
- Collections: Card, Account, Mobile money, Bank Transfers, USSD, Barter, NQR.
- Payouts and Beneficiaries.
- Recurring payments: Tokenization and Subscriptions.
- Split payments
- Card issuing
- Transactions dispute management: Refunds.
- Transaction reporting: Collections, Payouts, Settlements, and Refunds.
- Bill payments: Airtime, Data bundle, Cable, Power, Toll, E-bills, and Remitta.

The vendor folder is committed into the project to allow easy installation for those who do not have composer installed. It is recommended to update the project dependencies using:
$ composer require flutterwavedev/flutterwave-v3
Create a .env file and follow the format of the .env.example file Save your PUBLIC_KEY, SECRET_KEY, ENV in the .env file
PUBLIC_KEY="****YOUR**PUBLIC**KEY****" // can be gotten from the dashboard
SECRET_KEY="****YOUR**SECRET**KEY****" // can be gotten from the dashboard
ENCRYPTION_KEY="Encryption key"
ENV="development/production"
This is used to facilitate card transactions.
Edit the paymentForm.php
and processPayment.php
files to suit your purpose. Both files are well documented.
Simply redirect to the paymentForm.php
file on your browser to process a payment.
In this implementation, we are expecting a form encoded POST request to this script. The request will contain the following parameters.
- payment_method
Can be card, account, both
- description
Your transaction description
- logo
Your logo url
- title
Your transaction title
- country
Your transaction country
- currency
Your transaction currency
- email
Your customer's email
- firstname
Your customer's first name
- lastname
Your customer's last name
- phonenumber
Your customer's phonenumber
- pay_button_text
The payment button text you prefer
- ref
Your transaction reference. It must be unique per transaction. By default, the Rave class generates a unique transaction reference for each transaction. Pass this parameter only if you uncommented the related section in the script below.

List all transactions on your account. You could do a specific query using customer_email
or customer_fullname
to make specifc search. View all successfull or failed transactions for a particular period, month or year
# Transaction service
All of the SDK's tests are written with PHP's phpunit
module. The tests currently test:
Account
,
Card
,
Transfer
,
Preauth
,
Collection Subaccount
,
Payout Subaccount
,
Subscriptions
and
Paymentplan
They can be run like so:
phpunit
NOTE: If the test fails for creating a subaccount, just change the
account_number
account_bank
andbusinesss_email
to something different
NOTE: The test may fail for account validation -
Pending OTP validation
depending on whether the service is down or not
