Click to Pay

Click to Pay is a payment feature that allows shoppers to make secure card payments without having to enter their card details. There are over 70 million Click to Pay shopper accounts worldwide.

To use Click to Pay, shoppers can create an account either through the Mastercard and Visa portals, or directly with their issuing bank if it is supported. The card scheme is responsible for securely storing the cardholder data and issuing tokens.

Shoppers with Click to Pay accounts are recognized during checkout and can select their preferred card details from their Click to Pay account to complete the payment.

Benefits

Click to Pay offers you the following benefits:

• Higher authorization rates: Click to Pay increases card authorization rates through the use of Network Tokens.
• Faster checkout and higher conversion: Click to Pay eliminates manual card detail entry, speeding up checkout times and boosting conversion rates.
• Secure: all Click to Pay payments are made from a recognized device, or are authenticated through a one-time password, making them more secure than regular card payments.
• No additional fees: Click to Pay payments are processed as Network Token card payments, meaning you do not incur additional costs.

How it works

1. During your checkout, we identify whether your shopper has a Click to Pay account, by recognizing either their device or email address.
2. If your shopper has a Click to Pay account, they can pay with their stored card details. Else, the shopper can pay through manual card detail entry.
3. Your shopper receives a one-time password via email and phone, and they authenticate themselves.
4. Your shopper's stored Click to Pay cards are displayed.
5. Your shopper selects their preferred card and confirms the purchase.

Requirements

Before you begin to integrate Click to Pay, make sure you have integrated one of the following:

• Web Drop-in (v5.39.0 or newer)
• Web Components (v5.39.0 or newer)

To add Click to Pay to your account, contact our Support Team or your Account Manager.

Step 1: Configure your integration

How you configure Click to Pay depends on your integration:

• If you have a Drop-in integration, Click to Pay — when available — is shown with card payments.
• If you have a card Component integration, integrate Click to Pay as part of the Card Component
• If you have a custom card integration, integrate Click to Pay as a standalone Component

Step 2: Recognize the Click to Pay user

There are two ways in which your integration can recognize an existing Click to Pay user:

1. A Click to Pay account is registered with your shopper's email address.
2. A Click to Pay cookie is stored in your shopper's browser.

If at least one of these conditions is met, the Card Component displays Click to Pay.

To recognize whether a Click to Pay account is registered with your shopper's email address:

• If your integration uses the /sessions request, pass the shopperEmail parameter to your AdyenCheckout configuration.
• Else, add the shopper email address as shopperEmail to the card configuration:
