If you host in Korea and serve international guests, you can now charge through Eximbay right inside Mangobeds. Eximbay is a cross-border payment gateway, so guests pay with global credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, JCB, UnionPay, Diners, Discover), plus Alipay+, WeChat Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal and Korean local methods, through Eximbay’s hosted checkout, while you keep clean reconciliation in one place.

---

Before you start (what you need)

• An active Eximbay merchant account.
• Your Eximbay MID (merchant ID) and API key.
• Your Mangobeds property currency set to the currency you want to charge in (for example KRW, USD, EUR or JPY). Eximbay handles cross-border, so international guests can still pay even when you price in KRW.

Where to find your credentials

Unlike some gateways, Eximbay does not let you generate keys yourself from a dashboard. After you sign your Eximbay payment gateway contract, Eximbay emails you your MID and API key. If you don’t have them yet, contact Eximbay to request your credentials.

• The API key starts with test_ for testing, or live_ for real payments. The prefix decides the environment, so use your live_ key to take real money.
• Your MID is the short merchant identifier Eximbay assigns to your account (for example 1849705C64).

Heads-up: the API key is the secret half of your credentials, so treat it like a password. Don’t share it over email or paste it into chat.

Supported region

Eximbay is a cross-border gateway based in South Korea. It is a great fit for Korean properties that host international guests, who can pay with global cards, Alipay+, WeChat Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal and Korean local methods.

How to set it up in Mangobeds

• The guest pays with a card, Alipay+, WeChat Pay, Apple Pay, PayPal or a Korean local method.
• Eximbay notifies Mangobeds automatically once the payment is confirmed, and Mangobeds verifies the result with Eximbay before acting on it.
• Mangobeds marks the booking’s payment as Succeeded and sends you the usual property notification.
