Bancontact card Drop-in integration

Add Bancontact card to an existing Drop-in integration.

On this page, you can find additional configuration for adding Bancontact card to your Drop-in integration.

Our Web Drop-in renders the Bancontact card in your payment form, securely collects sensitive card information, and redirects the shopper to perform 3D Secure authentication.

Before you begin

This page assumes you've already:

API reference

You don't need to send additional fields for Bancontact card. To see optional fields that you can send for all payment methods, choose the endpoint you integrated:

/sessions: This is the default with Drop-in v5.0.0 or later.
/payments: If you implemented an advanced use case, or integrated Drop-in before v5.0.0.

Optional Drop-in configuration

If you want to add optional configuration, include this in a configuration object.

Parameter name	Description	Default
`enableStoreDetails`	Set to true to show the checkbox for saving the card details for recurring payments.	false
`hasHolderName`	Set to true to show the input field for the card holder name.	false
`holderNameRequired`	Set to true to make the card holder name a required field. To show the field, you additionally need to set `hasHolderName` to true.	false
`holderName`	String that is used to prefill the card holder name field.	Empty
`name`	String that is used to display the payment method name to the shopper.	Depends on the `shopperLocale` specified in `/paymentMethods` request.
`styles`	Set a style object to customize the card input fields. For a list of supported properties, refer to Styling card input fields.
`minimumExpiryDate`	v 4.3.0 If a shopper enters a date that is earlier than specified here, they will see the following error: "Your card expires before check out date." Format: `mm/yy`
`brands`	v 5.2.0 Array of card brands that will be recognized.	`['bcmc','maestro','visa']`

The following example shows how to configure Drop-in to show an input field for the required card holder name and a checkbox to store card details for recurring payments.

const bcmcConfiguration = {
    hasHolderName: true,
    holderNameRequired: true,
    enableStoreDetails: true,
    name: 'Bancontact card'
};

You can also customize your shopper's experience when specific events occur. For more information, refer to Events.

If you created a bcmcConfiguration object, include this when creating a configuration object:

const configuration = {
  // ...  other required configuration
  paymentMethodsConfiguration: {
    bcmc: bcmcConfiguration
  }
};

https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods/boleto-bancario/web-drop-in#-code-adyencheckout-code-configuration

Include Bancontact card in the list of other cards

By default, Drop-in renders Bancontact card separately from other cards. Alternatively, you can include Bancontact card in the list of other cards. To do so, when creating AdyenCheckout configuration:

Include bcmc in the removePaymentMethods array. This removes the separate Bancontact card Component.

const configuration = {
  environment: 'test', // Change to 'live' for the live environment.
  clientKey: 'test_870be2...',
  // ...  other configuration
  removePaymentMethods: ['bcmc']
});

Include bcmc in the brands array of the card payment method:

const configuration = {
  environment: 'test', // Change to 'live' for the live environment.
  clientKey: 'test_870be2...',
  // ...  other configuration
  paymentMethodsConfiguration: {
    card: {
      hasHolderName: true,
      holderNameRequired: true,
      name: 'Credit or debit card',
      brands: ['mc','visa','amex', 'bcmc']
    }
  }
});

Recurring

Bancontact recurring payments are not available in the test environment. To test your integration, do a penny test in the live environment instead.

We support recurring transactions for Bancontact through SEPA Direct Debit. To make recurring payments, you need to:

Create a shopper token.
Use the token to make future payments for the shopper.

Create a token

We strongly recommend that you request explicit permission from the shopper if you intend to make recurring SEPA payments. Being transparent about the payment schedule and the charged amount reduces the risk of chargebacks.

To create a token, include in your /payments request:

storePaymentMethod: true
shopperReference: Your unique identifier for the shopper (minimum length three characters).

When the payment has been settled, you receive a notification webhook containing:

eventCode: RECURRING_CONTRACT
originalReference: The pspReference of the initial payment.
pspReference: This is the token that you need to make recurring payments for this shopper.

Make sure that your server is able to receive RECURRING_CONTRACT as part of your standard notifications. You can enable the RECURRING_CONTRACT event code in the webhook settings page.

Make a payment with a token

To make a payment with the token, include in your /payments request:

paymentMethod.storedPaymentMethodId: The pspReference from the RECURRING_CONTRACT. You can also get this value by using the /listRecurringDetails endpoint.
shopperReference: The unique shopper identifier that you specified when creating the token.
shopperInteraction: ContAuth.
recurringProcessingModel: Subscription or UnscheduledCardOnFile.

For more information about the shopperInteraction and recurringProcessingModel fields, refer to Recurring transaction types.
