Telebirr, Chapa, and manual payment proof: what to know
2026-06-20 - 5 min read
A practical explanation of payment options for Ethiopian workflows and why manual proof may still be useful.
Manual proof is useful as a fallback
For early projects, clients may pay through bank transfer, mobile money, or another accepted method and upload proof for admin review.
Gateway payments need verification
When Chapa or another gateway is enabled, payment status should be verified server-side before the invoice is marked paid.
Choose payment flow by project type
A website may only need invoice instructions. Ecommerce, delivery, SaaS, or portals may need checkout, receipts, payment attempts, and status tracking.
