Tyms is an accounting and finance automation software for small and medium-sized businesses. Tyms is helping the finance team and CFOs to automate their entire accounting process from financial data collection (bookkeeping), reporting (accounting) and analysis.

To help businesses automate their receivables and get invoice payment faster, Tyms makes it possible to directly integrate your Paystack payment gateway so that any invoice generated on Tyms can include the option for your customer to pay you via the fantastic payment options available on Paystack. This payment will be received into your Paystack account but Tyms will be able to automatically update the invoice payment, send your customized receipt to your customer and also adjust your financials accordingly in real-time.

Paystack, a robust online payment processing platform, enables secure and smooth transactions for both businesses and individuals. With its integration into Tyms, you can harness the power of Paystack as a payment provider, facilitating invoice payments and ensuring accurate financial monitoring to the highest degree.

Here is the step-by-step process needed to successfully integrate your Paystack into Tyms for invoice payment collection along with other automated actions required. Should you have any questions or challenges during the integration, please feel free to send an email to developer@tyms.africa.

Step 1: Sign in to your Tyms web application

Step 2: Navigate to the Integrations page.

Step 3: Select Paystack under the Payment Gateways section

Step 4: Select the button that says “Click here to set up or access your paystack account” and you will be redirected to the Paystack official page to set up your account or access your public key.

Step 5: Paste your paystack public key on your Tyms Paystack Integration page. Forwarding webhook URL is your existing paystack Webhook URL or any Webhook URL you would want a copy of the transaction to be sent. You can proceed and submit this information.

Step 6: Your paystack account is now connected. To complete your integration, click on the paystack card to access the webhook URL and hash key generated for your account. 

Step 7: Paste this URL as your new webhook URL on the paystack settings page.

Step 8: You have now successfully connected paystack and can now accept payments via Tyms by creating an invoice or recurring invoice.  Navigate to the Sales and invoicing page, select Invoices,  click on “Create invoice” and under the payment details section, click on the dropdown beside the “Select payment gateways” button.

After creating the invoice and sending it to the concerned party, the customer can make payment through that link and your payment details would be updated for that record.
