Installation

  • 1) Open a Moyasar account at dashboard.moyasar.com. It starts in test mode; Moyasar activates live payments for a business with a Saudi commercial registration (or freelance licence) and a Saudi bank account.
  • 2) In your Moyasar dashboard, Settings, API Keys, copy the secret key (sk_test_... to test, sk_live_... for real payments). Moyasar shows a secret key only once, when it is made.
  • 3) Install this plugin, then in HikaShop go to System > Payment methods, click New and choose Moyasar.
  • 4) Paste the secret key, choose the statuses and save.
  • 5) Your shop must use the currency of your Moyasar account, usually the Saudi riyal (SAR): the method is only offered for an order in SAR, AED, BHD, KWD, QAR or USD.
  • 6) Optional: in your Moyasar dashboard, Settings, Webhooks, add the Webhook URL shown in the plugin's settings, with a secret token of your choice and the payment events, and type the same token in the plugin's settings.

Configuration

The settings of the Moyasar payment method in HikaShop

  • Secret key: the secret key of your Moyasar account (sk_...). A test key puts the method in test mode. The publishable key (pk_...) does not work here: the plugin warns you when you paste one.
  • Webhook secret token: optional, the token you typed for the webhook in your Moyasar dashboard. A webhook without it is refused. Empty, orders are still confirmed, but refunds and voids made in the dashboard do not change them.
  • Webhook URL: the address to paste in your Moyasar dashboard, Settings, Webhooks. Under it, "Test mode" tells you the key is a test key.
  • Payment page lifetime: how many minutes the payment page of an order can be paid, 1440 (a day) by default. 0 for no limit.
  • Payment page language: Automatic shows it in Arabic when your shop is shown in Arabic and in English otherwise; or always Arabic, or always English.
  • Debug: writes every call to Moyasar and every notification to the HikaShop payment log file.
  • Invalid status: the status of an order whose payment page expired or was cancelled, cancelled by default.
  • Verified status: the status of a paid order, confirmed by default.
  • Refunded status: moving an order to this status refunds its whole payment on Moyasar, refunded by default.
  • The other settings of the page (name, description, images, price, zone, currency, restrictions) are the same as for every HikaShop payment method.

Troubleshooting

  • "The payment could not be started" at the checkout gives Moyasar's reason: for instance an order total under 1.00 SAR, which Moyasar does not take, or a wrong secret key.
  • Moyasar is not offered at the checkout: the order is not in one of the currencies above, or the method is not published.
  • A currency other than SAR has to be enabled on your account by Moyasar first.
  • "The refund was refused by Moyasar": the order keeps its status and the message gives the reason. Moyasar takes one refund per payment, so a payment already partly refunded cannot be refunded again; the refund must also be covered by your Moyasar balance.
  • Turn Debug on and look at the HikaShop payment log file (System > Configuration > Files) to see what Moyasar answered.
