Overview

FairShare is a simple way to let your customers share the cost of a single transaction directly at checkout. We make this possible by adding a split payment button to your checkout flow, similar to how you would offer a BNPL option.

Split payments help you increase conversions, raise average order value, and create a more flexible checkout experience for your customers.

Getting Started with FairShare

Getting started with FairShare is simple:

1. Account Setup

Create your account at fairsharepay.com/signup, fill in your company details, connect your payment processor, and begin testing in sandbox mode.

2. Integration

Choose how you want to integrate FairShare into your business.

• Payment Links (No Code) - Quickly create and send payment links to your customers through text or email.
• On Checkout Integration - Integrate split payments right at your checkout page, without having to manually create split sessions.
• Availability Check First - Before showing the split payment option, call the availability endpoint to confirm your merchant account can create split sessions.

3. Set Up Webhooks

Configure webhooks so your system can receive payment updates and respond to events in real time.

4. Merchant Profile API

Use the merchant profile endpoint to read your merchant status and manage preferred convenience fee defaults during onboarding.

5. Go Live

Once everything is tested and configured, switch to live mode and start accepting real payments.
