You can add Rakuten Pay to your existing integration. The following instructions show only what you must add to your integration specifically for Rakuten Pay. If an instruction on this page corresponds with a step in the main integration guide, it includes a link to corresponding step of the main integration guide. The additions you must make depends on the [server-side flow](/online-payments/build-your-integration) that your integration uses: ## Sessions flow Drop-in ### Drop-In-Before-You-Begin ## Requirements | Requirement | Description | | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Integration type** | Make sure that you have an existing Sessions flow [Drop-in integration](/online-payments/build-your-integration/sessions-flow?platform=iOS\&integration=Drop-in).

If you do not have a periodic charging cadence, Rakuten Pay prohibits you from initiating the Recurring Processing Model for card-on-file, which is primarily allowed for the Food & Beverage business category. You must apply for every Recurring Processing Model when you request Rakuten Pay. Refer to [Create tokens](/online-payments/tokenization/create-tokens/) to integrate with our tokenization feature. We strongly recommend that you ask explicit permission from the shopper if you intend to make future recurring payments. Being transparent about the payment schedule and the charged amount reduces the risk of chargebacks. ### Drop-In-Test-And-Go-Live ## Test and go live To test Rakuten Pay payments, use the acquirer account `DGFT_AcquirerAccount_RakutenPay_closedLoop` in the TEST environment.
