Meeza

/docs/egypt/payment-rails/meezaEgypt

Egypt's national card scheme, issued by local banks. Meeza is a planned rail: it is designed to appear automatically in Hosted Checkout for Egypt-region merchants settling in EGP, with no separate integration.

Not live yet

Meeza does not accept real payments through BINK today. When it launches, it will be offered through a licensed partner. The flow below describes the intended design.

How it is designed to work

The customer enters their Meeza card number on the hosted checkout page like any other card. The authorization is routed through the domestic scheme rather than Visa/Mastercard rails.

Creating the payment

bash

curl https://api.binkpay.net/merchant/payments \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer sk_test_..." \
 -d '{ "amountMinor": "5000", "currency": "EGP" }'

No paymentMethod field is needed — for EGP payments on an Egypt-region account, Meeza is designed to be offered automatically alongside cards, InstaPay, and Vodafone Cash once those rails are live.

Currency-locked to EGP

Meeza only ever settles in EGP. It will not appear as an option on a payment created in any other currency.
