How do I integrate Split Payments with my platform?

Please view the Payfast Developer Documentation for information on how to integrate Split Payments with your platform. 

The primary account holder will have to enable Split Payments on their dashboard and then provide you with their Merchant ID and Merchant Key, which has to be included in the string. 

You are required to work out with the merchant directly what the payment split to your secondary account should be, that is either a fixed amount, a percentage or a combination of both. A minimum and a maximum value can also be set.
