An entrypoint is an alias used to identify an organization or paypoint. When you make a call via the API or with embedded components, the entrypoint value indicates which paypoint account to use for a payment, subscription, or storing a payment method.

Sometimes the terms “paypoint” and “entrypoint” are used seemingly interchangeably. A paypoint is a merchant. An entrypoint is an alias used to identify an organization or a paypoint. Sometimes the entrypoint is referred to as entry or entryname in the APIs and as Entry Name in PartnerHub and PayHub.

Find an entrypoint with the API

You can get the list of active paypoints for your organization by making a request to the List Paypoints endpoint. You need the entry ID for the parent organization to make the request. Payabli gives you this ID in your onboarding documents.

A paypoint’s entrypoint is returned as EntryName in the response. This is the value you need to make any API calls that deal with that paypoint.
