Pagopar is a Paraguayan digital payments platform that lets you charge with QR (the customer scans it and pays from their banking app) / receive online payments for internet sales / and transfers from any bank. By integrating it with Focal Point, payments are automatically recorded in your cash register.

Charge with QR

Send payment link
For remote sales:
Generate the payment link from the sale
Send it by WhatsApp or email

Automatic reconciliation
When a customer pays via Pagopar: the platform notifies Focal Point / the sale is automatically marked as Paid / the income is recorded in cash / you do not need to verify it manually.
Fees
Pagopar charges a transaction fee (generally 2-3%). This is automatically recorded as an expense associated with the sale so your reports reflect the net income.

Payment is not recorded → Review the webhook URL in the Pagopar panel.
Invalid credentials → Regenerate the keys in the Pagopar panel.
