Quick Start

Good to know: All endpoints use RESTful conventions with JSON responses, and our API is designed to handle high-volume transactions with enterprise-grade security and reliability.

Get your API keys

Your API requests are authenticated using API keys. Any request that doesn't include an API key will return an error.

You can generate an API key from your Cashfin Business Dashboard at any time.

How to Generate API Keys:

  1. Log into your Cashfin Business Dashboard

  2. Navigate to Settings → API Management

  3. Click "Generate New API Key"

  4. Copy and securely store your API key - it won't be shown again

Using Your API Keys:

Include your API key in the Authorization header of every request:

curl -X GET "https://api.cashfin.africa/accounts" \
  -H "Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
