View OpenAPI Document

Conekta is a Mexican payment processor and the API supports the local payment methods that matter in Mexico, including cards, OXXO cash vouchers, SPEI bank transfers, and digital wallets. The surface covers orders and charges, customers and saved payment methods, subscription billing with plans and pause or resume, payment links and hosted checkouts, payouts and transfers, antifraud blacklist rules, balances and transactions, and webhooks for downstream eventing. It is the standard integration for Latin American merchants who need OXXO and SPEI alongside cards.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use Conekta API API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Cross-Method Mexican Checkout

Accept card, OXXO cash voucher, and SPEI bank transfer payments from Mexican shoppers in a single checkout. POST /orders creates the order, /tokens turns card data into a token, and the order's charges are configured to the chosen method. Mexican e-commerce merchants integrate this to reach the large segment of buyers who pay in cash at OXXO or via SPEI rather than by card.

Create an order for MXN 1499.00 for customer cus_44 with method oxxo_cash and return the OXXO reference and barcode URL

Subscription Billing for Latin American SaaS

Run recurring billing against Mexican customers using Conekta plans and subscriptions. POST /plans creates a billing plan, POST /subscriptions enrols a customer on it, and the pause and resume endpoints handle dunning and retention scenarios. SaaS and digital-services companies use this to localize their billing for the LATAM market.

Create a monthly plan 'Pro 299' priced at 29900 MXN cents, then subscribe customer cus_77 to it with a card token from /tokens

Payouts and Marketplace Disbursements

Pay out balances to suppliers, contractors, or marketplace sellers in Mexico. POST /payout_orders or POST /transfers moves funds to a beneficiary's CLABE bank account, and the balance and transactions endpoints reconcile what was paid. Marketplaces and gig platforms use this to keep funds in Mexico for both collection and disbursement without crossing borders.

Send a payout of MXN 1200.00 to beneficiary CLABE 012180001234567890 with reason 'June marketplace earnings'

Antifraud and Webhook-Driven Operations

Reduce fraud and keep downstream systems synchronized with payment state. /antifraud/blacklist/rules lets agents add risky cards or emails, and /webhooks subscribes to charge.paid, order.paid, and subscription.canceled events. Operations teams use this to push events into a CRM and tighten antifraud rules in real time as charge-back patterns emerge.

Subscribe a webhook with URL https://app.example.com/hooks for charge.paid events and add fraud@example.com to the antifraud blacklist

Agent-Driven Payment Operations via Jentic

Let an AI assistant resolve customer payment issues by issuing refunds, generating vouchers, or pausing subscriptions in chat. Through Jentic the agent searches by intent, loads the schema for the relevant Conekta operation, and executes the call without the developer wiring auth or pagination. This is suited to bilingual support bots covering Mexican customers.

On the prompt 'reembolsa el pedido o-9911', call POST /orders/{id}/refunds for that order and confirm the refund id in Spanish

Why though Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

Conekta private keys are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault and injected as the bearer Authorization header at execution time. The raw key never enters the model context or application logs.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic with intents like 'create a Conekta order with OXXO' and Jentic returns the matching operation with its parameter schema, so the agent can call POST /orders without browsing developer docs.

Time to first call

Direct integration: 2-3 days for auth, order and charge creation, OXXO and SPEI handling, subscriptions, and webhook signing. Through Jentic: under 1 hour via search, load, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using Conekta API API through Jentic.

What authentication does the Conekta API use?

The API uses HTTP bearer authentication. Pass your Conekta private API key (issued in the Conekta Panel) in the Authorization header as 'Bearer {key}'. Through Jentic the key is stored encrypted in the vault and injected at execution time, so the raw key never enters the agent's prompt or logs.

Can I generate OXXO and SPEI references with the Conekta API?

Yes. When creating an order via POST /orders, set the charge's payment-method type to oxxo_cash or spei_recurrent. The response returns the OXXO reference and barcode for cash payment, or the SPEI CLABE reference for bank transfer.

What are the rate limits for the Conekta API?

Conekta applies tenant-specific rate limits, typically a few hundred requests per minute per private key, with bulk operations throttled separately. Agents should add backoff on HTTP 429 responses; Jentic surfaces these as structured errors rather than retrying silently.

How do I create a subscription through Jentic?

Run the Jentic search query 'create a Conekta subscription on a plan', load the returned operation (POST /subscriptions), and execute it with the customer id, plan id, and a card token. Use POST /subscriptions/{id}/pause and /resume to manage the subscription lifecycle.

Is the Conekta API free to use?

The API itself is free; Conekta charges per processed transaction at rates set in your merchant contract. There are typically no separate API fees beyond the per-transaction processing cost.

Can I send payouts to Mexican bank accounts?

Yes. POST /payout_orders sends funds from your Conekta balance to a beneficiary's CLABE account via SPEI. POST /transfers moves funds between accounts you control. Both are reflected in the balance and transactions endpoints for reconciliation.
