Hemlo Pay

Paid by FIB, Zain Cash and Qi Card, straight into your account, free.

Hemlo Pay: get paid into your own wallet

Customers pay with FIB, Zain Cash or Qi Card, by QR at the counter or by link on your website’s orders. The money goes straight to your own merchant account. Hemlo Pay is free: no monthly fee and no cut of your payments.

  1. At the till, add the items and tap Pay.
  2. Choose the customer’s wallet. A QR code appears, on your screen and on the customer display.
  3. The customer scans it: with the FIB app, or with the phone camera for Zain Cash and Qi Card, which opens their secure payment page.
  4. The sale closes by itself the moment the wallet confirms the payment. Nothing to type.

Good to knowOn your website, customers see a “Pay now online” button on their order, one for each wallet you’ve connected.

Voiding a wallet sale refunds it through the same wallet. Wallet payments never count as cash in your drawer.

Connect FIB, Zain Cash or Qi Card

Each wallet gives your business its own merchant account. You connect it once, and Hemlo checks the details with the wallet before saving them.

  1. Open a merchant account for online payments with the wallet (FIB, Zain Cash or Qi Card). They give you the details to connect.
  2. In Hemlo, open Hemlo Pay and tap Connect beside the wallet.
  3. Try it in Test first if you like: a test payment moves no real money. Then connect the live account.
  4. Enter the details and tap Connect. When the wallet accepts them, it shows as connected and appears at the till.

Good to knowOnly the owner or an admin can connect or disconnect a wallet. The secret is stored sealed; no one can read it back, not even Hemlo’s staff.

Zain Cash takes payments of 1,000 IQD or more.

Where the money goes, and why it’s safe

Hemlo never holds your money. Every payment goes from the customer’s wallet to your own merchant account, under your own contract with the wallet. Hemlo is the software that asks for the payment and watches for the answer.

Good to knowA payment counts as paid only when the wallet itself says so. Hemlo asks the wallet with your account’s details; a message that merely claims a payment is never enough.

Settlement to your bank follows your agreement with the wallet, not Hemlo.
