paytmchecksum
This is for paytm checksum creation and verification in python
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No. The package is abandoned (last update 2023-08-02) and declares support only for end-of-life Python versions (2.7, 3.3–3.6). Compatibility with modern Python is unverified, and Paytm's API may have changed since the last release. If you need Paytm integration, verify with Paytm's current documentation whether this library still works with their current gateway.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

Verify before relying

- Whether there are known security issues in the checksum implementation not yet reported to OSV
What it is and what it does
paytmchecksum is a utility library for creating and verifying checksums used in Paytm payment gateway transactions. It implements the cryptographic signing scheme required to authenticate payment requests and responses with Paytm's servers. The package has no external runtime dependencies and is designed to be a lightweight integration point for Python applications that need to process Paytm payments.
The library was last updated on 2023-08-02 and is now in abandoned maintenance status. It declares support for Python 2.7 and Python 3.3–3.6, all of which are no longer actively supported by the Python project. No known security vulnerabilities have been reported, but the lack of recent updates means compatibility with modern Python versions and any changes to Paytm's API are unverified.
Use it for
- Generating checksums for payment requests sent to Paytm's payment gateway in a Python backend
- Verifying checksums in payment callbacks received from Paytm to confirm transaction authenticity
- Integrating Paytm payment processing into legacy Python applications still running older Python versions
- Validating transaction signatures in Paytm webhook handlers
