instapay-eg - Community SDK for Egyptian InstaPay payment links.
Zero dependencies for the core API. Built for Egyptian developers.

What Can It Do?

In three lines of code:

from instapay_eg import parse_text

data = parse_text("https://ipn.eg/S/alice/instapay/2DcFGv\nClick the link...\nalice@instapay")
print(data.handle)  # alice

Why Does This Exist?

InstaPay's mobile app generates share-sheet text like this:

https://ipn.eg/S/alice/instapay/2DcFGv
Click the link to send money to
alice@instapay
Powered by InstaPay

Developers who accept InstaPay payments in their apps need to:

  1. Extract the URL from that blob of text
  2. Verify it's not a phishing or lookalike-domain link
  3. Store just the clean URL in their database
  4. Optionally generate a QR code for display

instapay-eg does all of this safely and correctly, so you don't have to write and maintain your own regex and security checks.
