Pay API


Overview

BC Registries Pay system is used by the BC Registries account services and integrated systems to create payment transactions to pay for the products purchased. This abstracts the integrated systems from the underlying payment integrations and payment methods.

With this API you can submit the following transactions:

  • Create payment transactions
  • Get payment status
  • Delete unpaid payment transactions
  • Generate PDF receipt
  • Retrieve account statements
  • Generate account transactions reports

Note: All requests must include a BC Registries issued API key and an Account ID.
