What you can automate

What can the Payrexx Platforms Make integration do?

The Payrexx Platforms Make integration lets a Make scenario (the automation you build, a chain of steps) create, read, update, delete and search two kinds of records in your Payrexx account: merchants and licenses. Each step is a module, one brick of the scenario, and you link your account once with an API key.

New merchants without retyping. When a sign-up form in another app receives an answer, Create a Merchant can add that merchant to Payrexx from the data the form collected. Nobody copies names across tabs any more.

A clean list before you act. Search all Merchants or Search all Licenses returns every matching record as separate bundles (one item per record flowing to the next module), so a following Update a Merchant or Update a License can work through them one by one.

Tidy offboarding. Delete a Merchant and Delete a License remove records you no longer need. Place them at the end of a scenario you have already tested, since a deletion cannot be taken back from Make.

What the integration does not do: it has no trigger, so Payrexx never starts a scenario on its own. Something else starts it, another app or the clock of Make. If the modules stop short, Make an API Call reaches the rest of the Payrexx API. New to the editor? The Make training walks through it, Make troubleshooting helps when a run fails, and n8n vs Make sets out the criteria if you hesitate between the two tools.

Connect

How do you connect Payrexx Platforms to Make?

  1. 01

    Create an API key in Payrexx

    In the Payrexx merchant dashboard, open API and Plugins, click Add API Key, give the key a name that tells you it serves Make, click Add, then copy the key shown in the list.

  2. 02

    Add a Payrexx Platforms module

    In your scenario, add any Payrexx Platforms module and click Create a connection. A connection is your Payrexx account linked to Make once, then reused by every Payrexx module you add later.

  3. 03

    Paste the key and save

    The Connection name field is optional; a clear name helps when you run several accounts. Paste the API key you copied, follow the instructions on screen, and save. Make now reads your Payrexx data.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Payrexx Platforms

GoalWhen a sign-up form in another app gets a new answer, Make creates the matching merchant in Payrexx Platforms.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    Open the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + to add the first module. Here that first module comes from the app that holds your sign-up form.

  2. 02

    Add Create a Merchant

    Click the + on the right of the form module, search for Payrexx Platforms and pick Create a Merchant. Click Create a connection if you have not linked your account yet.

  3. 03

    Map the form data

    Fill the module fields by mapping the answers the form module received. Make shows the data of the previous module, so you click a value instead of typing it.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Send one test answer through the form, then click Run once. Open each module to read the bundle it received, and check in Payrexx that the merchant now exists.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Set the schedule on the first module (every 15 minutes by default) and switch the scenario on. From now on, new form answers turn into Payrexx merchants without you.

Modules

What each Payrexx Platforms module does

Payrexx Platforms gives you 11 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Payrexx Platforms1

Create a License

ActionIn the docs only

Adds a new license record to your Payrexx account from data your scenario already holds, so it appears in Payrexx without a manual entry.

When to use it
right after the step that decides a license is needed, such as a paid order confirmed in another app.
Watch out
run a search first if the same record might come through twice, or you end up with duplicates.
Payrexx Platforms2

Create a Merchant

ActionIn the docs only

You get a new merchant in Payrexx Platforms built from the answers of a form, a CRM record or a spreadsheet row, with no copying between tabs.

When to use it
as the action that follows a sign-up or an approval in the tool where new partners arrive.
Watch out
test with Run once on a single fake entry before switching the scenario on.
Payrexx Platforms3

Delete a License

ActionIn the docs only

Removes one license from your Payrexx account, which keeps your list free of records that no longer serve anyone.

When to use it
at the end of a cancellation flow, once the scenario has confirmed which license is concerned.
Watch out
a deletion cannot be undone from Make, so place a filter before this module and check the result of Run once.
Payrexx Platforms4

Delete a Merchant

ActionIn the docs only

Takes a merchant off your Payrexx platform in one step, handy when an account closes and should disappear from your records.

When to use it
after a closure is confirmed elsewhere, for example in your CRM or an approval sheet.
Watch out
nothing brings the merchant back from Make; retrieve it first if you want a copy of its data in another tool.
Payrexx Platforms5

Make an API Call

ActionIn the docs only

Opens the rest of the Payrexx API to your scenario, with the same connection, for anything the 10 other modules leave out.

When to use it
when the operation you need has no dedicated module in the list above.
Watch out
you write the request yourself, so keep the Payrexx API documentation open and test the call alone with Run once.
Payrexx Platforms6

Retrieve a License

ActionIn the docs only

Fetches one license and hands its details to the next module, so a later step can use them without anyone opening Payrexx.

When to use it
when you already know which license you want and need its current data, for a notification or a check.
Watch out
it reads a single record; to find several at once, Search all Licenses is the better fit.
Payrexx Platforms7

Retrieve a Merchant

ActionIn the docs only

Brings back the details of one merchant, ready to be mapped into an email, a spreadsheet or a support ticket.

When to use it
when an event in another app names a merchant and the scenario needs the full record from Payrexx.
Watch out
each retrieval is an operation, one execution Make counts on your plan, so avoid calling it for records you already hold.
Payrexx Platforms8

Search all Licenses

SearchIn the docs only

Lists the licenses in your account and returns each one as its own bundle, which gives the following modules a full picture to work through.

When to use it
before an update or a report that has to cover every license, not just one.
Watch out
a search can return zero, one or many bundles, and every module after it runs once per bundle.
Payrexx Platforms9

Search all Merchants

SearchIn the docs only

Returns the merchants on your platform one bundle at a time, so you can copy them to a sheet, check them or pass them to an update.

When to use it
to sync your merchant list into another tool, or to check whether a merchant exists before creating it.
Watch out
with no match the search returns nothing, so the next modules simply do not run.
Payrexx Platforms10

Update a License

ActionIn the docs only

Changes an existing license in place, which keeps Payrexx in step with what happened in your other tools.

When to use it
when a change approved in another system should show on the license.
Watch out
the module needs to know which license to change, so place a retrieval or a search before it.
Payrexx Platforms11

Update a Merchant

ActionIn the docs only

Edits a merchant record so its data in Payrexx matches the latest version in your CRM or form, without a manual correction.

When to use it
when a merchant changes their details in the tool that holds your source of truth.
Watch out
map only the fields you mean to change, and test with Run once on one merchant before going wider.

FAQ

Payrexx Platforms and Make: common questions

01Is the Payrexx Platforms Make integration free?
Yes, Payrexx Platforms is a standard app in Make, available from the Free plan. The Free plan still has limits: 2 active scenarios, at least 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, 5 minutes of execution per run, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, allow unlimited active scenarios and 40 minutes of execution. Usage counts in operations per month. Your Payrexx subscription is a separate matter, covered by the Payrexx pricing page.
02What do you need to connect Payrexx Platforms to Make?
You need an active Payrexx account and an API key. Create the key in the merchant dashboard under API and Plugins with Add API Key, name it, click Add and copy it from the list. In Make, add a Payrexx Platforms module, click Create a connection, optionally name the connection, then paste the key. The connection is then reused by every Payrexx Platforms module in your scenarios, so this setup happens only once per account.
03Does Payrexx Platforms trigger Make scenarios in real time?
No, the Payrexx Platforms app has no trigger module at all, neither scheduled nor instant. A scenario that uses it has to start from something else. The first option is a trigger from another app, such as a form or a CRM, that feeds Payrexx modules further down the chain. The second is the schedule of Make itself: a new scenario runs every 15 minutes by default, and the Free plan cannot go below that interval. Paid plans go down to 1 minute.
04What if a Payrexx Platforms module is missing in Make?
Use Make an API Call. It calls any endpoint of the Payrexx API from your scenario, with the same connection, so you are not limited to the 11 listed modules. You write the request yourself, which asks for a look at the Payrexx API documentation. Keep in mind that the Make documentation for this app is flagged as AI-generated from the Payrexx documentation and may contain mistakes, so verify important details and contact Payrexx directly for questions about their API.
05Make or n8n for Payrexx Platforms?
It depends on your criteria, not on a winner. On the Make side, the facts are clear: 11 modules covering merchants and licenses, plus Make an API Call for the rest, all usable from the Free plan. The same app often has an n8n node too, so check whether one exists for Payrexx Platforms before choosing. Then compare what each tool offers for your team: the editor you prefer, the modules you need and how you want to run your automations.
