# Configuration

Configure Modem Pay for your Laravel app.

## Environment Variables

Add these to your `.env` file:

```env theme={null}
MODEMPAY_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
MODEMPAY_WEBHOOK_SECRET=your_webhook_secret_here
```

<Warning>
  Never commit your API keys to version control. Always use `.env` file.
</Warning>

## Publish Config (Optional)

If you need to customize settings, publish the config file:

```bash theme={null}
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=modempay-config
```

This creates `config/modempay.php`:

```php theme={null}
return [
    'api_key' => env('MODEMPAY_API_KEY'),
    'webhook_secret' => env('MODEMPAY_WEBHOOK_SECRET'),
];
```

## Getting Your API Keys

1. Log in to your [ModemPay Dashboard](https://merchant.modempay.com)
2. Go to **Developers** → **API Keys**
3. Copy your keys
4. Add them to `.env`

<Tip>
  Use test keys during development and live keys in production.
</Tip>

## Verifying Setup

Test your configuration in Tinker:

```bash theme={null}
php artisan tinker
```

```php theme={null}
ModemPay::paymentIntents()->list();
```

If this works, you're all set!
