iDEAL Drop-in integration

Add iDEAL to an existing Drop-in integration.

Our Android Drop-in renders iDEAL in your payment form, and redirects the shopper to their selected bank's website or app to complete the payment.

Before you begin

This page explains how to add iDEAL to your existing Android Drop-in integration. The Android Drop-in integration works the same way for all payment methods. If you haven't done this integration yet, refer to our Drop-in integration guide.

Before starting your iDEAL integration:

  1. Make sure you have set up your back end implementation.
  2. Add iDEAL in your test Customer Area.

Show iDEAL in your payment form

Drop-in uses the countryCode and the amount.currency from your /paymentMethods request to show the available payment methods to your shopper.

To show iDEAL in your payment form, you need to specify in your /paymentMethods request:

Make a payment

When the shopper proceeds to pay, Drop-in returns the paymentComponentData.paymentMethod.

  1. Pass the paymentComponentData.paymentMethod to your server.

  2. From your server, make a /payments request, specifying:

    • paymentMethod: The paymentComponentData.paymentMethod from your client app.
    • returnURL: URL to where the shopper should be redirected back to after they complete the payment. This URL can have a maximum of 1024 characters. Get this URL from the Component in the RedirectComponent.getReturnUrl(context).

The /payments response contains an action object with the information needed to redirect the shopper.

/payments response
{
   "resultCode":"RedirectShopper",
   "action":{
      "paymentMethodType":"ideal",
      "method":"GET",
      "url":"https://checkoutshopper-test.adyen.com/checkoutshopper/checkoutPaymentRedirect?redirectData=...",
      "type":"redirect"
   }
}

If your integration is set up correctly, the action object is passed from your server to the client.

Check the payment result

Drop-in redirects the shopper to complete the payment. When the shopper returns back to your app, Drop-in provides the actionComponentData object.

From your server, make a POST /payments/details request providing:

  • details: The actionComponentData.details object from Drop-in.
/payments/details request
  curl https://checkout-test.adyen.com/v68/payments/details \
  -H "x-API-key: YOUR_X-API-KEY" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "details": {
         "redirectResult": "eyJ0cmFuc1N0YXR1cyI6IlkifQ=="
     }
  }'

You receive a response containing:

  • resultCode: Use this to present the payment result to your shopper.
  • pspReference: Our unique identifier for the transaction.
/payments/details response
{
     "resultCode": "Authorised",
     "pspReference": "PPKFQ89R6QRXGN82"
}

Present the payment result

Use the  resultCode that you received in the /payments/details response to present the payment result to your shopper.

The resultCode values you can receive for iDEAL are:

resultCode Description Action to take
Authorised The payment was successful. Inform the shopper that the payment has been successful.
You will receive the funds in 2-3 days.
Cancelled The shopper cancelled the payment while on their bank's website. Ask the shopper whether they want to continue with the order, or ask them to select a different payment method.
Error There was an error when the payment was being processed. Inform the shopper that there was an error processing their payment. The response contains a refusalReason, indicating the cause of the error.
Pending or
Received
The shopper has completed the payment but the final result is not yet known. It may take minutes or hours for the iDEAL payments network to confirm this. Inform the shopper that you've received their order, and are waiting for the payment to be completed.
You will receive the final result of the payment in an AUTHORISATION webhook. If the transaction is not authorised within 30 minutes, the offer will close. Optionally, you can be informed of this through an OFFER_CLOSED webhook.
Refused The payment was refused by the shopper's bank. Ask the shopper to try the payment again using a different payment method.

If the shopper closed the browser and failed to return to your website, wait for webhooks to know the outcome of the payment:

eventCode success field Description Action to take
AUTHORISATION false The transaction failed. Cancel the order and inform the shopper that the payment failed.
AUTHORISATION true The shopper successfully completed the payment. Inform the shopper that the payment has been successful and proceed with the order.

Recurring payments

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

  1. Create a shopper token.
  2. 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:

As of Checkout v70, recurringProcessingModel is a required parameter when creating or using a token.

When the payment is settled, you receive a RECURRING_CONTRACT 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 webhooks. You can enable the RECURRING_CONTRACT event code in the webhook settings page.

Make a payment with a token

For each recurring payment for this shopper, make a SEPA payment with a  /payments call, and additionally include:

As of Checkout v70, recurringProcessingModel is a required parameter when creating or using a token.

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

If the payment was successfully received the response will contain a Received resultCode and a pspReference, which is our unique identifier for this transaction. You can track whether the payment was successful using webhooks.

Test and go live

We provide different test issuers for testing iDEAL payments, including testing for payments with Cancelled, Pending, or Refused result codes. Select the corresponding test issuer name, for example, Test Issuer Cancelled to simulate a cancelled payment scenario.

We recommend that you test each scenario before you go live.

Check the status of iDEAL test payments in your Customer Area > Transactions > Payments.

Before you can accept live iDEAL payments, you need to submit a request for iDEAL in your live Customer Area.
