Place Data Order

Use this endpoint to trigger a data purchase.

MTN Beneficiary Protection: For MTN orders, the recipient number is automatically verified against our beneficiary list before any wallet debit. Ineligible numbers are rejected immediately with HTTP 422 (status: failed, reason: not_on_beneficiary_list) without charging your wallet balance, and are automatically recorded in our system as candidates for future approval.
Sandbox Mode: If using a test key, the order status will be placed immediately, but no data will be delivered to the number (customer).

🔍 Verify Beneficiaries (MTN)

Check whether phone numbers are on our beneficiary list before you accept or dispatch an order. This lets you warn customers or filter numbers upfront so transactions run smoothly.

Automatic Candidate Registration

When you verify a number that is not currently on our beneficiary list, the number is automatically recorded in our system as a candidate so it can be approved for future orders.

Zero Wallet Risk

If you place an API order for an ineligible MTN number, our system immediately rejects the order (HTTP 422) with no wallet debit, keeping your balance 100% safe.

Order Status Definitions

pendingWaiting. Retries automatically if provider is down.
placedOrder received and being processed by the provider.
deliveredSuccess! Data bundle delivered to the customer.
failedFailed. Package usually out of stock.
cancelledOrder voided by an administrator.

🔥 Pay & Order (No Wallet Needed)

Allow your customers to pay directly with Paystack on your website or app. Zero wallet pre-funding required. When payment completes, your profit is automatically split into your account and the data bundle is delivered immediately.

💡 Do I Need to Handle Paystack Webhooks on My Server?

NO! Notify Data handles the entire Paystack webhook automatically.

  • Automated Payment Verification: Paystack communicates directly with Notify Data's server when a customer completes payment.
  • Instant Profit Settlement: Your profit share (the markup between your retail price and wholesale cost) is automatically routed to your Paystack Subaccount (MoMo or Bank).
  • Instant Data Fulfillment: The data bundle is dispatched and delivered directly to your customer's phone number upon payment.
How The Flow Works in 3 Steps:
Step 1
Initialize Payment

Your backend calls POST /api/reseller/initialize-payment with customer and bundle details to get an authorization_url.

Step 2
Customer Pays

Redirect your customer to the authorization_url where they pay securely via Mobile Money or Card.

Step 3
Automatic Delivery

Notify Data's webhook automatically fulfills the order and pays your profit. You can verify order status anytime using the status API.

WhatsApp Bot Automation (via BroadcastBuddy)

Integrate your business directly with the BroadcastBuddy API to deploy custom WhatsApp bots. This allows you to automate data order processing, handle real-time price inquiries, and manage customer interactions without manual intervention.

1. Check Session Status

Verify if your WhatsApp bot instance is currently online and connected to the BroadcastBuddy engine.

GET https://broadcastbuddy.app/api/v1/session/status/{sessionId}

2. Sync Profile & Subscription

Retrieve active subscription plans (Pro/Free), license expiration dates, and account metadata.

GET https://broadcastbuddy.app/api/profile?sessionId={sessionId}

3. Deploy Custom Bot Flows

Instantly clone a pre-configured data-vending flow from a master session to an agent's session using the Flow API.

POST https://broadcastbuddy.app/api/bot-flows/copy
Required JSON Body:
{
  "flowId": 3,
  "sourceSessionId": "YOUR_MASTER_ID",
  "targetSessionId": "AGENT_SESSION_ID"
}
Implementation Tip: Always use the sessionId stored in your local database to authenticate requests. Ensure your Paystack callback updates the local subscription_status to 'active' before triggering the session start command.
