Adding Whitelist Domain and IP Addresses in Your Paystack Account

To ensure secure communication between Knorish and Paystack, you need to whitelist Knorish's domain and IP addresses in your Paystack account.


Here's how to enable this. 

Step 1. Whitelist your domain connected with your Knorish site.

Step 2. Whitelist below IP addresses by adding them in Paystack :
Use these IP Addresses
  1. IP Address 1: 3.7.184.183
  2. IP Address 2: 43.205.159.238
    1. (Ensure you add the correct IPs provided by Knorish.)
  3. Click Save to apply the changes.

Troubleshooting common errors

  1. If you encounter an error while connecting the payment gateway, it could be due to your domain and server IP not being whitelisted or if you are using incorrect access code and key. To resolve this issue, we recommend reaching out to PayStack customer support for assistance.
  2. Also ensure to turn the Payment gateway live and disable test or sandwich environments to ensure smooth processing of payments.
  3. Paystack currently only accepts South African Rand, US Dollars, Ghanian Cedi, and Nigerian Nairas in a non-recurring format meaning it can only be used for one-time payments.
