Cashflows
Cashflows is a United Kingdom payment gateway and card acquirer, headquartered in London and a principal member of Visa and Mastercard, that helps businesses accept, process, and manage card payments across online, in-app, and in-person channels. Its product family spans a REST Cashflows Gateway (payment jobs, captures, refunds, tokenisation, recurring payments, and webhooks), hosted and embedded checkout, a cardholder-not-present Payments API with 3-D Secure, a Remote Authentication API for connecting to the acquiring network, and an In-Person Payments API served locally from Kinetic PCI-PTS terminals. Cashflows ships a genuine self-serve developer portal at developer.cashflows.com with reference documentation, a dedicated integration/sandbox environment, and webhook-based payment notifications, but it does not publish a downloadable OpenAPI/Swagger definition or a public Postman collection; its API reference is hand-authored HTML. Authentication is header-based (ConfigurationId plus a SHA-512 request hash for the Gateway, and auth_id/auth_pass for Remote Authentication) rather than OAuth.
Cashflows publishes 4 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Payments, United Kingdom, Payment Gateway, Payment Processing, and Acquiring.
The Cashflows catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.
Cashflows’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, pricing, engineering blog, support, authentication, and 22 more developer resources.
