How-to Guide: Generating Checkout.com API Token

  1. Login to your Checkout.com dashboard

  2. Click on the Developers icon and then navigate to Keys

  3. Click on Create a new key

  4. Select Secret API key

  1. Provide "Key description" to help you identify the connection in the future (for example, “Ledge”)

  2. Customize Scopes:

    1. Under 'scopes' - click 'Customize'

    2. Click on 'Reporting'

    3. Choose also 'disputes:view', 'balances:view', 'payments:search'

  3. Select "Allow all processing channels" (since Ledge is only using read-only, this setting doesn't impact the permission but makes the integration more robust and simple)

  4. Select the entity of your company - if you have multiple entities make sure to select all the relevant ones

  5. Click on 'Create Key'

  6. If prompted to select the access type, please make sure it is 'Read only' access
