Registering an App

​

Why Register an App?

Registering an app allows you to automate payments, manage wallets, and interact with Payman via SDK.

Each app gets a unique set of credentials, access control via policies, OAuth access and full visibility into payment activity — ensuring secure and governed automation.

​

Step 1: Enable Developer Mode

In the Payman Dashboard, toggle the “Developers” switch in the sidebar.

This unlocks:

• Ability to register apps
• Access to TSD wallets for testing

​

​

Step 2: Register the App

1. Go to Apps → Register App
2. Enter the following details:
   • App Name
   • Description
   • (Optional) Website
3. Click Save You’ll now see your app listed and ready to configure.

​

Step 3: Configure the App

Each app must be connected to:

• At least One Wallet
  Select a specific wallet or allow access to all.

• At least one Payee
  Choose who this app can send money to — bank accounts, wallets, or test payees.

• One Policy (required)
  Every app must be governed by a policy that defines limits, thresholds, and approval rules.

​

After Registration

Once your app is saved and configured, you’ll see 5 tabs in the app view:

You can generate both Test Credentials (TSD wallet) and Live Credentials (USD/USDC wallets) once your app is ready and linked to an approved policy.

​

Playground

The Playground tab allows you to test your app’s configuration and authentication flows right from the dashboard — no Postman or code needed.

It supports both:

• Client Credentials Flow: For backend automation
• Authorization Code Flow: For apps that use Payman OAuth to access wallets on behalf of end users

​

What’s Next?

Once your app is registered:

• Use the Payman TypeScript SDK to start building
• Use your credentials to authenticate and send payments
• Monitor activity and logs via the dashboard
