How Conekta Payment Gateway Addon for CrowdLift works with OXXO cash payments

One of the standout features of Conekta Payment Gateway Addon for CrowdLift is OXXO integration. When a backer selects OXXO as their payment method, the addon generates a unique payment reference number. The backer takes this number to any OXXO store (over 20,000 locations across Mexico), pays in cash, and the pledge is automatically marked as completed within a few hours. This is perfect for crowdfunding campaigns that want to reach backers without credit cards or bank accounts.
