Your profit isn't a "separate deposit," but rather the "unused change" left in their API wallet.
Here is a simplified, professional breakdown you can send to your vendor to make it click:
Understanding Your Profit: The "Wallet Gap" Method
To see exactly how you make money, let’s follow one single N100 Airtime transaction through both systems.
1. The User Side (Your Website)
- Action: A customer buys N100 Airtime from your site.
- Result: Your website debits N100 from the user’s wallet.
- At this moment, you have "collected" N100 from the user.
2. The Provider Side (Your API Account)
- Action: Your website automatically sends a request to v6.datagifting.com.ng to deliver that airtime.
- Result: Because you are a vendor, the API only debits you at a discounted rate (for example, N97).
- The API delivers the full N100 value to the customer's phone.
3. Where is the Profit?
Your profit is the difference between what you took from the user and what the API took from you.
The Math: > N100 (From User) — N97 (From Your API Wallet) = N3 Profit.
"Where did the N3 go?"
The profit stays in your API wallet. Think of it like this: You had N1,000 in your API wallet. After the transaction, instead of having N900 left (full price), you have N903 left. That extra N3 is your profit, ready to be used to fund your next sale!
The "Simple Summary" for the Vendor
- You collect: The full price from the customer.
- You pay: The discounted price to the API.
- Your gain: The discount stays in your balance as "extra" money to buy more stock.
You aren't "sent" profit; you simply "keep" the difference!
