Paytia for Aircall integration

The Paytia Agent Capture Assist Secure Virtual Terminal integrates with Aircall telephony to provide a simple and secure way to take customer payments during calls

How it works

With Paytia for Aircall, customers enter their card details privately using their phone keypad, while agents receive real-time visual and audio updates on the transaction status.

Without exposing them to fraud or card-data theft, and ensuring the business complies with payment-industry and data-protection requirements.

  • Works inside Aircall's browser and desktop app — no separate software for agents
  • Paytia connects via Aircall's API and webhooks — no changes to your Aircall account structure
  • Conference Pay triggers directly from within an active Aircall call
  • Works alongside Aircall's native CRM integrations (Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive)
  • Aircall call analytics and recordings are preserved — card data is masked before it reaches Aircall's platform
  • Agents stay in their Aircall interface throughout the payment — no switching between apps
  • Receive live payment authorisation on call with a visual confirmation in the agent dashboard

Step 3: Card capture

Customers use their own telephone keypads for secure card entry live on the call

Setting up each agent in Aircall

When a Conference Pay session ends, Paytia hands the call back to the agent. For that to work cleanly, your Aircall admin needs to configure two things per payment-taking agent — each takes around five minutes in the Aircall admin console.

Stage 01 — Per user

Set the agent's Call preferences

Open the agent in the admin console and apply a short wrap-up time. Without it, the agent could pick up a new inbound call at the exact moment Paytia tries to return the payment call — and the customer would be lost.

1

Sign in to dashboard.aircall.io as an Admin or Owner

2

Go to Users and Teams and open the agent who'll take payments

3

Click the Call preferences tab beneath their name

4

Set Wrap-up time to 0 min / 2 sec, then save

The 2-second window gives Paytia enough time to ring the agent back before Aircall queues them for another incoming call.

Stage 02 — Per number

Build a Smartflow that rings the agent

Each payment-taking agent needs a dedicated Aircall number whose Smartflow routes incoming calls straight to them — and only them. That's the number Paytia dials when it hands the call back.

1

Go to Numbers and pick or create a number for the agent

2

Open Call Distribution on that number, then click Build your call flow or Edit

3

Choose Start from scratch — don't use a template

4

Add a Ring to action between Call comes in and Call ends; on the User tab, pick the agent you configured in Stage 01

5

Set Ring for to 30 seconds and turn Wait for busy agents on

6

Click Publish in the top-right corner, confirm the Published status, then click Exit

“Wait for busy agents” means the returning call queues politely while the agent's still in wrap-up — rather than dropping straight to voicemail.

Both stages are needed for every agent who'll take card payments — your Aircall admin repeats them per person, not once for the whole account.

Frequently asked questions

Where does Paytia sit in the Aircall call flow?+

You've got two options. Conference Pay drops Paytia in as a third party on an existing Aircall call — agent puts the customer on hold, conferences us in, and unmasks them again to enter the card. Paytia SIP routes the number above Aircall, so card capture happens at the carrier layer before the audio reaches Aircall at all. The second option gives you the cleanest PCI scope. Telephone payments covers both flows in detail, and you can watch the Aircall integration demo to see it on a real call. For other supported phone systems, see all telephony partners.

Will Aircall's call recording capture the card digits?+

No. The DTMF tones the customer presses are masked before they reach Aircall, so the recording captures the conversation cleanly with no card data and no awkward silence to splice out. That means you keep continuous recording running through the payment without a pause-and-resume workaround, and the recording is safe to drop into your CRM. See DTMF masking for how the suppression works.

Does Paytia interfere with Aircall's CRM integrations?+

No. Aircall's native links to Salesforce, HubSpot, and Pipedrive keep working exactly as they do today — call logging, contact matching, and analytics are unchanged. Paytia connects via Aircall's API and webhooks, so the payment lands in your gateway and the call lands in your CRM the way it always has. The agent doesn't leave their Aircall interface during any of it; the product tour shows the combined view.

How long does it take to add Paytia to an Aircall account?+

Sign-up is around four minutes and most Aircall customers are processing live transactions inside a working day. There's no integration project — you import users from Aircall at the click of a button, agents pick up where they were, and the only new step is conferencing Paytia in or dialling 729 when a payment comes up. There's no setup fee and no contract; get in touch if you'd like a walkthrough on your own Aircall account.

Can the same Paytia setup take recurring or saved-card payments?+

Yes. The first call captures the card securely; after that you can charge against a stored token for subscriptions, instalment plans, or repeat orders without the customer having to call back. The token is meaningless to anyone who intercepts it — only your gateway can charge against it — so you're not bringing card data back into Aircall to do it. Recurring payments walks through the setup.
