Accept Nexi XPay
without building the integration
Nexi XPay is the e-commerce payment gateway of Nexi Payments S.p.A. Merchants reach it through their bank rather than directly, and the customer pays on a payment page hosted by Nexi, so card details never touch the merchant's website or PaymentHood.

What is Nexi XPay?
- Coverage
-
Merchants whose bank distributes Nexi XPay. Intesa Sanpaolo (as XPay Web), Banca MPS, BPER, Banca Mediolanum and Mediobanca Premier are among the banks that do. Your own terms come from the bank, not from Nexi.
Among the countries Nexi, through your bank supports for Nexi XPay — Nexi, through your bank's own list is authoritative (opens in new tab).

Among those supported. Which ones your account can charge in depends on its registered country.
- Fees
- Set and billed by Nexi, through your bank, and published on their pricing page (opens in new tab). PaymentHood adds nothing on top, at any volume.

Written against Nexi, through your bank's own documentation on . This page deliberately states no fees, no counts and no completeness claims, because those change without notice — for anything you are about to build on, Nexi, through your bank's own documentation (opens in new tab) is the authority.
Nexi XPay payment methods
Every method below runs through the same PaymentHood checkout. Turning one on or off is a dashboard setting, not a code change.
Cards
Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Diners, as enabled on your Nexi contract
Wallets and local methods
Nexi lists Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Bancomat Pay and MyBank among its circuits; what appears on the page depends on your contract
Nexi XPay fees and pricing
Two separate bills, and only one of them exists.
- What PaymentHood charges
- Nothing on your Nexi XPay transactions. No percentage and no per-transaction cut, at any volume. Every payment feature is free, and the optional Premium plan only adds white-label checkout branding.
- What Nexi, through your bank charges
- Nexi, through your bank sets its own rates and bills you directly. PaymentHood never sits between you and that invoice, so switching to or from Nexi XPay changes what you pay Nexi, through your bank and nothing else.
- What moves the rate
- Payment providers price per market and per method rather than as a single global figure. It also accepts several kinds of payment, and card, transfer and wallet rails each carry their own cost.
- Where to check the figure
- Nexi, through your bank publishes current rates on their pricing page (opens in new tab). That is the authority, not this page. We deliberately quote no numbers here, because a rate that has quietly changed is worse than no rate at all.
How PaymentHood works with Nexi XPay
Integrating Nexi XPay through Nexi, through your bank yourself is not just an API call. These are the parts every team ends up rebuilding — and the parts PaymentHood ships already done.
- Credentials
- The merchant's XPay API key from their Nexi back office, held server-side in PaymentHood and sent only from PaymentHood's servers to Nexi. The hosted page language is a per-merchant setting and defaults to Italian
- Webhook security
- Received on a PaymentHood URL that carries a per-profile secret key. Nexi does not sign its notification, so it is only read for which payment it concerns and is never trusted for the status
- Payment verification
- Server-side read-back of the order from Nexi before an order is marked paid, so the payment's real state always comes from Nexi rather than from the notification
- Idempotent charge creation, so a retried request never double-charges a customer
- Automatic failover to another configured provider when Nexi XPay is unreachable
- One reconciliation view across Nexi XPay and every other provider you run
- Provider credentials never reach the storefront or the customer's browser
- Adding or switching a provider later is a dashboard change, not a re-integration

How to connect Nexi XPay
Use your Nexi, through your bank account

If you do not have one, register with Nexi, through your bank and complete its onboarding, then turn Nexi XPay on in your Nexi, through your bank Dashboard. Funds settle from Nexi, through your bank into your own bank account — PaymentHood never holds merchant money.
Add the credentials to PaymentHood
Paste your Nexi, through your bank API credentials into the PaymentHood dashboard. They are stored server-side and never exposed to your storefront.
Enable it at checkout
Install the PaymentHood plugin for your platform, paste your PaymentHood API key, and Nexi XPay appears as a payment option. Test in sandbox, then switch to live.
