External services

This plugin connects to the KIB BuyNow payment gateway (hosted at buynow.kib.com.kw and related KIB environments) to authenticate the merchant, create finance applications and orders, and retrieve their status. This is required for BuyNow Split and Financing checkout.

Data sent when a customer places an order with BuyNow: order amount, customer phone number (the mobile number entered at checkout for Split, or the billing phone for Financing), order ID (correlation ID), number of instalments or financing tenor, and order line items (product ID, name, price, and quantity). Merchant credentials (merchant reference, API key, and a request signature) are sent when authenticating. Requests happen only at checkout, when checking order status, and when an administrator tests credentials.

The gateway also sends webhook notifications to your store to update order statuses.
