To help keep your data and API usage secure, ClickPesa allows you to restrict access to your APIs by whitelisting specific IP addresses. This ensures only requests from trusted sources can interact with your account.

Whitelisting IPs is an added layer of security to protect your data and your business. We highly recommend enabling this feature when you’re using the APIs in production.

​
Accessing Whitelisting IP Settings

To access your whitelisted IPs:

  1. Log in to your ClickPesa Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Settings → Developers.
  3. Scroll to the Whitelisted IP section.

​
Managing IP Addresses

  • Add an IP Address: Enter the IP address you want to allow. Only requests from this address will be able to access your APIs.
  • Remove an IP Address: Deleting an IP from the list will immediately revoke its ability to access your APIs.

If no IP addresses are added, your API will accept requests from any IP address. - As soon as one or more IPs are added, requests from all other IPs will be automatically blocked
