How PaySovra works.
A customer pays in crypto; the funds land directly in your wallet; your store gets a signed webhook. Here is the full sequence, step by step.
The payment flow
This is the core sequence merchants need to understand.
Step 1
Customer starts checkout
The customer enters the merchant’s payment flow through hosted checkout, the widget, an ecommerce integration, or a custom implementation.
Step 2
PaySovra creates the payment session
PaySovra generates a fresh receiving address from the merchant's wallet configuration, locks in the exchange rate, and presents the customer a QR code and exact amount.
Step 3
The customer sends the payment on-chain
The buyer completes the payment on the selected network using the wallet or asset supported by the merchant’s configuration.
Step 4
The network confirms the transaction
PaySovra monitors the payment lifecycle and tracks the state change from awaiting payment toward confirmation.
Step 5
The merchant receives payment status updates
Status updates and webhooks help the merchant system react once a payment has been detected and confirmed.
Step 6
Funds settle in the merchant's wallet
The payment lands on-chain in the wallet the merchant configured. There is no custodial balance and no payout step — settlement and receipt are the same event.
