Step by step configuration

In order to use the PayFast payment method, you have to possess some informations that PayFast should have given to you,your Merchant Id and Merchant Key, so you must create an account on PayFast to get this information and be able to reach your PayFast setting page.
After this, you have to enter your Merchant Id and your Merchant Key in your PayFast Specific Congiguration.
Choose to switch on the testing mode OR not ("production phase") and your plugin will automatically send the needed data to the right PayFast page.
Once your plugin is configured properly, you will probably want to try it. Before switching to the production phase ("Testing Mode: Off"), you should be able to make test payments with PayFast Sandbox. The capture will not be done and you should see a confirmation ticket proving you that everything works ok and if the payment is accepted, your order will take the specified verified status automatically (you need to have your website online for that as PayFast needs to notify it of the payment).
