About this Product

PayTabs Payment Gateway for Business Central is a build-to-order AL extension that connects your Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central environment directly to PayTabs, the regional payment processor used across Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Jordan and the wider MENA market. ECOSIRE designs, builds, installs and supports it on your tenant — it is not an instant Microsoft AppSource download.

Business Central core has no native PayTabs connector. Out of the box you reconcile card settlements by hand, chase customers for bank transfers, and re-key refunds into journals. This extension closes that gap with real AL engineering: a page extension on the Posted Sales Invoice adds a "Send Payment Link" action that calls the PayTabs hosted-payment REST API and emails a secure link to the customer. When the buyer pays, a PayTabs webhook hits a published Business Central API page (codeunit-backed), and an event subscriber on the posting flow applies the customer payment, marks the invoice paid, and posts the entry to the Customer and Bank/Gateway ledgers — auto-reconciled, with the PayTabs transaction reference stored on the Cust. Ledger Entry.

It supports PayTabs card schemes and local MENA methods (mada, Apple Pay, STC Pay and others your PayTabs profile enables), multi-currency, and full or partial refunds initiated from within Business Central that call back to PayTabs and post the matching credit. A dedicated Job Queue entry polls for late webhooks so nothing is missed, and a custom permission set scopes who can issue links and refunds.

Delivered as a per-tenant extension (not a shared AppSource listing), so it is shaped to your number series, dimensions, posting groups and approval workflow. ECOSIRE handles sandbox testing against PayTabs test credentials, the production cutover, and ongoing support as your BC environment receives Microsoft's monthly and major updates.

Who this is for

Finance Lead at a MENA business

Owns AR and cash reconciliation on Business Central. Wants customers to pay invoices by card or local method (mada, Apple Pay) and have those payments land reconciled in the ledger automatically, without manual journal entries.

Business Central Administrator / IT Manager

Responsible for the BC tenant, extensions and security. Needs a clean per-tenant extension with proper permission sets, Isolated Storage secrets and a maintainable upgrade path across Microsoft's update waves.

E-commerce or Operations Manager

Sends a high volume of invoices and chases payment. Wants a one-click payment link on each posted invoice and instant confirmation when the customer pays, with refunds handled inside BC instead of a separate PayTabs portal.

Frequently Asked Questions about PayTabs Payment Gateway for Business Central

How long does delivery take and what is the process?

This is a build-to-order extension, not an instant download. Typical delivery is around 2 to 4 weeks depending on your PayTabs profile, currencies and approval workflow. The flow is: scoping call, build in AL, sandbox install and end-to-end testing against PayTabs test credentials, then a scheduled production cutover. You receive the timeline in writing after the scoping call.

How is ongoing support and Business Central updates handled?

After go-live, ECOSIRE provides a defined support window covering bug fixes and questions. Because Microsoft ships monthly service updates and two major releases a year, we test the extension against new BC versions and keep it compatible. Continued support beyond the included window, or changes to the PayTabs methods you use, are handled under a support arrangement agreed up front.

Why a per-tenant extension instead of a Microsoft AppSource app?

A per-tenant extension is built specifically for your environment, so it respects your number series, dimensions, posting groups and approval flow. AppSource apps are generic, must satisfy Microsoft's marketplace constraints, and rarely match your exact reconciliation rules. We deploy directly to your tenant via the BC admin centre or your DevOps pipeline.

Are my PayTabs credentials stored securely?

Yes. Your PayTabs Profile ID and Server Key are stored in Business Central Isolated Storage, not in plain table fields, and access is scoped by a dedicated permission set. Webhook callbacks are validated before any ledger entry is posted, and every gateway request and response is logged for audit.

Do I need an existing PayTabs merchant account?

Yes. You provide an active PayTabs merchant account with the card and local payment methods you want enabled on your profile. ECOSIRE builds and connects the Business Central side; PayTabs remains your payment processor and settlement relationship. We test against your PayTabs sandbox before touching production.
