So, I have a client who wants to accept AfterPay on their site, they accept it in store.
The API is published, it looks simple enough, no problem it should be a pretty easy job, all I need is some access details to a sandbox so I can write the necessary code. This isn't exactly my first rodeo, I've developed many many integrations to payment gateways in the 20 years. This is the equivalent more or less of third party processing, about as simple as things get.
But actually getting this off the ground, man oh man, it seems like a never ending circular track trying to get sandbox credentials out of AfterPay being bounced around NZ, UK and AU. We are... hmm, about a month in now from initially asking for sandbox credentials and the latest is they want to have a phone meeting in a week with the client and me and them and I don't know who else, you know "on boarding", "discovery" blah blah buzz word bingo - I'm a coder, all I want is sandbox details so I can develop and test some code against your published API, it's not that complicated.
Have any of my fellow geekzoners developed to the AfterPay API? How did you find it, I'm wondering if something is getting lost between me, the client and AfterPay, or if this is just par for the course with them.
