pawpayments 2.0.1

Official Python SDK for the PawPayments Native V2 API

PawPayments — Python SDK

Official Python SDK for the PawPayments Native V2 API. Ships both a synchronous client (PawPayments, built on requests) and an asynchronous one (AsyncPawPayments, built on httpx).

Install

pip install pawpayments

Requires Python 3.9+.

Quickstart (sync)

from pawpayments import PawPayments

paw = PawPayments(api_key="…")

invoice = paw.invoices.create(
    amount=25,
    fiat_currency="USD",
    billing_type="STATIC",
    asset="usdt_tron",
    description="Pro plan, 1 month",
    notify_url="https://example.com/paw/webhook",
)
print(invoice["payment_url"])

Quickstart (async)

import asyncio
from pawpayments import AsyncPawPayments


async def main():
    async with AsyncPawPayments(api_key="…") as paw:
        invoice = await paw.invoices.create(
            amount=25,
            fiat_currency="USD",
            billing_type="STATIC",
            asset="usdt_tron",
        )
        print(invoice["payment_url"])


asyncio.run(main())

Resources

Group	Methods
paw.assets	list()
paw.rates	get(base=, assets=)
paw.balance	get()
paw.invoices	create(**), get(id), list(**), notify(id)
paw.payouts	create(**, uniq_id=), get(id), list(**), batch(items, uniq_id=)
paw.ledger	list(type=, ...)
paw.notifications	list(**), test(url=)
paw.permanent	create(**), get(id), list(**), deactivate(id)

payouts.create and payouts.batch accept an optional uniq_id for explicit idempotency (UUIDv4). When omitted the SDK generates one with uuid.uuid4(). A repeated uniq_id within 2 hours yields a 409. Payout requests use address. Invoice responses expose address_to and may include address_from.

Each payout (and each batch item) accepts an optional fee_bearer of "merchant" or "client" to choose who covers the network fee — defaults to "merchant":

paw.payouts.create(
    address="T…",
    amount=50,
    fiat_currency="USD",
    asset="usdt_tron",
    fee_bearer="client",
)

Webhook verification

from flask import Flask, request, abort
from pawpayments import Webhook

app = Flask(__name__)


@app.post("/paw/webhook")
def webhook():
    raw = request.get_data()
    sig = request.headers.get("X-Paw-Signature", "")
    if not Webhook.verify_raw_body(raw, sig, API_KEY):
        abort(401)
    payload = Webhook.parse_payload(raw)
    # …handle the invoice update…
    return "", 200

Errors

from pawpayments import PawPaymentsApiError

try:
    paw.invoices.create(...)
except PawPaymentsApiError as exc:
    print(exc.code, exc.http_status, str(exc), exc.details)

Testing

• pytest tests/test_webhook.py — signature unit tests + PHP-interop parity.
• PAW_API_KEY=… pytest tests/test_live.py tests/test_negative.py — live happy-path + negative-case suites against https://api.pawpayments.com. Tests skip when PAW_API_KEY is absent.
