Build your payment form for PaySafeCard

Include PaySafeCard in the list of available payment methods. You do not need to collect any information from the shopper in your payment form.

We provide logos for PaySafeCard and the issuing banks, which you can use on your payment form. For more information, refer to Downloading logos.

In your /paymentMethods request, specify:

The response contains paymentMethod.type: paysafecard.

Make a payment

In your /payments request, specify:

  • paymentMethod.type: paysafecard
  • shopperReference: Your reference to uniquely identify this shopper, for example user ID or account ID.
In the  /payments response, note the `action` object. This contains the information needed to redirect the shopper.

<div data-component-wrapper="code-sample">
<code-sample
    :title="'/payments response'"
    :id="''"
    :code-data="[{&quot;language&quot;:&quot;json&quot;,&quot;tabTitle&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;content&quot;:&quot;{\n   \&quot;resultCode\&quot;:\&quot;RedirectShopper\&quot;,\n   \&quot;action\&quot;:{\n      \&quot;paymentMethodType\&quot;:\&quot;paysafecard\&quot;,\n      \&quot;method\&quot;:\&quot;GET\&quot;,\n      \&quot;url\&quot;:\&quot;https:\/\/checkoutshopper-test.adyen.com\/checkoutshopper\/checkoutPaymentRedirect?redirectData=...\&quot;,\n      \&quot;type\&quot;:\&quot;redirect\&quot;\n   }\n}&quot;}]"
    :enable-copy-link-to-code-block="true"
    :code-sample-card-size="'fullsize'"
></code-sample>

Handle the redirect

  1. To complete the payment, redirect the shopper to the action.url returned in the /payments response, taking into account the following recommendations:

    • When using the HTTP GET method:
      For security reasons, when showing the redirect in the app, we recommend that you use SFSafariViewController for iOS or Chrome Custom Tabs for Android, instead of WebView objects. Also refer to the security best practices for WebView.

    • Redirection for mobile integrations:
      For mobile integrations, we strongly recommended that you redirect the shopper to the default browser of their device. Redirecting to the default browser ensures the best compatibility, handling of multi-factor authentication, app-to-app redirection, and error handling.

  2. After the shopper is redirected back to your website, check the payment result by making a POST /payments/details request, specifying:

    • details: object that contains the URL-decoded redirectResult returned when the shopper was redirected back to your site.

  3. In the response note the following:

    • resultCode: use this to present the result to your shopper.
    • pspReference: our unique identifier for the transaction.

Test and go live
