Tilopay Connection Guide with Mangobeds

If you host in Central America or the Caribbean, you can now charge guests through Tilopay right inside Mangobeds. Guests pay with local and international cards through a familiar checkout, while you keep clean reconciliation in one place.


Before you start (what you need)

  • An active Tilopay merchant account.
  • Your Tilopay API Key, API User, and API Password.
  • Your Mangobeds property currency set to a currency supported by your Tilopay account (for example, CRC for Costa Rica, USD for USD-enabled accounts).

Where to find them in Tilopay

  1. Log in to your Tilopay dashboard: app.tilopay.com.
  2. Go to Platform Integrations in the sidebar.
  3. On the Connection credentials card, pick API as the platform.
  4. Copy the three values:
    • API Key
    • API User
    • API Password

Heads-up: the API User and API Password are shown only once. Store them somewhere safe — you won’t be able to view the password again from the dashboard.

Supported countries

Tilopay operates across 27+ countries in Central America and the Caribbean, including Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Belize, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Trinidad & Tobago, Bahamas, Barbados and more. Onboarding is fastest in Costa Rica, Panama, and Guatemala, where Tilopay acts as a full payment facilitator. In other supported countries, you’ll typically need a merchant relationship with a partner bank like BAC Credomatic or First Atlantic Commerce.

How to set it up in Mangobeds

  1. Go to: Property → Settings → Payment Accounts → Connect
  2. In Create a new payment account, choose Tilopay as the provider.
  3. Paste the credentials:
    • Tilopay API Key
    • Tilopay API User
    • Tilopay API Password
  4. Save to create the payment account, then Connect it to the property.

Heads-up: once a property is linked to a payment account, you can’t swap providers on that property without removing the connection first.

Wrap-up

If you operate in Central America or the Caribbean, connecting Tilopay to Mangobeds gives guests a familiar local checkout and keeps your ops tidy with clean reconciliation. Grab your three credentials, connect — and you’re live.
