Everything You Need to Know
Can I add PayFast without changing how travelers book on my website?
Absolutely. Connecting PayFast through PayLexer doesn’t change how travelers search for trips or complete bookings. It simply adds PayFast as a payment option while your existing booking experience stays familiar.
What happens after a traveler finishes paying?
Once the payment is confirmed, your website receives the information it needs to continue the booking process. This helps keep your payment and booking records in sync without requiring manual updates.
I'm setting up a payment gateway for the first time. Is this difficult?
Not at all. PayLexer is built for WordPress users, so the setup is designed to be straightforward. You can connect PayFast without creating your own payment integration or writing code.
My website already accepts online payments. Can I still add PayFast?
Yes. If your website supports multiple payment gateways, you can continue offering your current payment options while making PayFast available to your customers.
If I make changes to my PayFast account later, will I have to reconnect everything?
There’s usually no need to start over. Simply update the relevant integration settings in PayLexer so your website can continue communicating with PayFast.
Who actually receives the money my travelers pay?
Payments are processed securely by PayFast according to your gateway account. PayLexer doesn’t collect or hold your funds, it simply enables your website and payment gateway to work together.
What if I need help after my website goes live?
You’re never on your own. Whether you have a question during setup or need assistance later, the PayLexer support team is available to help you keep your integration running smoothly.
