The flow
- EcoCash payment API: provider paynow-mobile with the buyer's phone number pushes the EcoCash prompt to their handset; OneMoney, InnBucks and O'mari work the same way.
- Cards and ZimSwitch: the hosted Paynow page takes Visa, Mastercard and ZimSwitch; international buyers can pay with PayPal.
- Settle: a signed webhook, or poll GET /v2/checkouts/<reference>/status until collected.
- Costs: a WavePay plan plus a small percentage that falls with volume (see /pricing.html); provider fees are paid to the provider at cost with no WavePay markup.
