Integrating Payment Gateways in Nigeria: Paystack vs. Flutterwave

If you are building an e-commerce store or subscription app in Nigeria, selecting the right payment gateway integration is critical for client conversions.

Paystack vs. Flutterwave APIs

Paystack: Known for exceptionally clean API documentation, developer-friendly libraries, and reliable bank transfer webhooks.

Flutterwave: Offers support for wide international currencies and mobile money payments across multiple African countries.

Transaction Fees: Both charge similar local processing rates (typically 1.5% capped at small thresholds).

Integrating either gateway allows you to collect client card payments and bank transfers automatically, upgrading your cashflow.
