The Opayo integration uses API keys to connect. Opayo only allows a single set of
API credentials per account, so if you are already using Opayo, find your existing
keys rather than generating new ones.

To generate new credentials:

1. Log in to MyOpayo at
   [live.opayo.eu.elavon.com/mysagepay/login.msp](https://live.opayo.eu.elavon.com/mysagepay/login.msp).

   ![MyOpayo login screen](/_astro/cdn/71eed30429/connect-1.png)

2. Go to **Settings → Administrator → Opayo API → Create API Credentials**. You
   will need to select the **I understand** checkbox before you can click the
   button.

3. Note your **Vendor Name**, **Integration Key**, and **Integration Password**.

   :::note[Tip]
   Store these credentials safely — Opayo will not show the Integration Password again.

   **Integration Key**, and **Integration Password**.

   message.
