LiqPay payment integration for Laravel: accept payments from day one

Every Ukrainian e-commerce business needs a payment gateway buyers already trust. LiqPay — backed by PrivatBank — processes Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. Integrating it into a Laravel application takes one sprint and pays back immediately in completed orders.

How LiqPay connects to Laravel

LiqPay exposes a clean REST API. Laravel's built-in HTTP client handles the request layer, while the framework's event system manages callbacks — no heavy third-party SDKs required.

A standard integration follows four steps:

1. Register a merchant account and retrieve your public_key and private_key from the LiqPay cabinet.
2. Build a signed payment form using base64_encode and hash_hmac('sha1', ...) — both available in core PHP, no extra dependencies.
3. Redirect the buyer to https://www.liqpay.ua/api/3/checkout with the signed payload.
4. Handle the server callback — verify the signature, update order status in your database, and fire a Laravel event to trigger fulfillment logic.

What the integration delivers

Once live, orders are confirmed in real time. Refunds are initiated from your own admin panel via API — not through the bank portal. Full transaction records sit in your database, ready for accounting exports and revenue reporting.

A clean Laravel + LiqPay integration takes 3–5 working days. The outcome is a checkout flow your buyers already recognise — and trust.
