Get paid with a voucher the customer has already bought

Credixa is a prepaid voucher network. Your customer buys a fixed-value voucher by card, you redeem the one-time code, and the value is settled to your account. The money exists before the sale does.

Three things that make a voucher different from a card payment

Prepaid, fixed value, single use

Vouchers come in set euro values: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150. Each one is used once and then consumed.

  • No revolving balance, no lending, no interest
  • Value leaves only through an approved redemption or an eligible refund
  • No cash-out, no transfer between people, nothing to convert

Sold under the Credixa brand. Fees and validity shown before purchase.

Checked and backed before it exists

A voucher is only issued after the card payment is confirmed by the provider and the reserve covers every voucher outstanding.

  • Buyer identity and risk checks before payment; 3-D Secure on every card
  • Reserve cover of at least 100% of vouchers in circulation, verified before issuance
  • A browser redirect is never treated as proof of payment

If any check fails, no voucher is created. The system fails closed.

A code that can't be faked or reused

The customer holds the only readable copy of the code. Credixa stores one-way verification material, never the code itself.

  • Redemption checked through an authenticated merchant channel
  • A successful redemption consumes the voucher in the same step
  • Card numbers never enter your systems or ours

Settlement goes only to the merchant account approved at onboarding.

How a voucher payment works

Five controlled steps between the customer's card and your settlement. Each has to succeed before the next can happen. Click a step.

What happens at this stepExplainer

The customer chooses a fixed value

Vouchers are sold in euro values of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 50, 75, 100 and 150. Before paying, the customer sees who is selling the voucher, the value, any fees, how long it's valid and the refund and redemption rules.

Checks before any money moves

Customers are checked in tiers. With a verified email, legal name and a low-risk decision they can buy up to three vouchers and EUR 500 in total. Identity verification with a government ID, proof of address and liveness check opens higher limits. Sanctions, PEP and adverse-media screening run on everyone, and the payment card must be in the buyer's name.

Card data stays with the checkout provider

The customer enters their card on a hosted checkout page. The card number and security code never reach Credixa's servers or yours. 3-D Secure is mandatory. The payment is then confirmed by an authoritative status from the provider, with amount, currency and reference matched, not by the customer's browser returning to a success page.

No reserve, no voucher

Before a voucher is created, the treasury control checks fresh, reconciled evidence that the reserve covers at least 100% of every voucher outstanding. If that evidence is stale or short, issuance stops. When it passes, one immutable issuance is recorded and the customer receives the code exactly once. Credixa keeps only one-way verification material, so a leaked database can't produce a valid code.

You redeem, the value becomes yours

Your system submits the code through an authenticated channel. Credixa rechecks the voucher state, your merchant status, limits, sanctions state and one-time use, then consumes the voucher and records the net amount payable to you. Settlement goes only to the account approved at onboarding. A refund is possible only before redemption, back to the original payment method.

A vetted network, not an open loop

Vouchers can only be redeemed at approved merchants in approved categories. That keeps the product clean for everyone in it, and it's why onboarding is thorough rather than instant. No merchant can redeem or be settled before activation.

  • Settlement destination lockedYour payout account is verified for ownership. Any change is screened, dual-approved and held before it takes effect.

Voucher questions

What exactly is a Credixa voucher?

A fixed-value, single-use prepaid voucher, currently in euro values from 5 to 150. A customer buys it by card at a hosted checkout and redeems it once at an approved merchant. It can't be cashed out, sent to another person or converted into anything else. You check the one-time code, the voucher is consumed, and the net value becomes payable to your approved account.

Why accept vouchers instead of, or alongside, cards?

The customer has already paid and been checked before any voucher exists, every voucher is reserve-backed before issuance, and the code can only be used once. Card details never touch your systems; they go to a hosted checkout with 3-D Secure. Customers can buy small amounts with light checks and larger amounts after identity verification, so the friction sits with the buyer's first purchase, not with your checkout.

Can my customer get a refund on a voucher?

Before it's redeemed, yes. The voucher is locked, it can no longer be used, and the money goes back to the original payment method where possible. After redemption you've been paid, so a refund is handled between you and your customer like any other purchase.

How long is a voucher valid and what does it cost the buyer?

Validity and any fees are shown to the customer before they pay, every time. The planned standard validity is one year from purchase and the planned purchase fee is zero, both subject to final approval and local consumer law, so the figure shown at checkout is the one that applies.

Who can become a voucher merchant?

Approved businesses in approved categories. Onboarding verifies the company, its directors, beneficial owners and controllers, screens for sanctions and adverse media, reviews your vertical and expected volumes, and verifies ownership of your payout account. New merchants start on a controlled pilot tier and move up as history builds.
