Set up the plugin in Adobe Commerce

Install Adyen's plugin for Adobe Commerce, and configure it in your Adobe Commerce admin panel. 

Step 1: Install the plugin

Adyen's plugin for Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento 2) is open-source and available on GitHub. The GitHub repository is connected to Packagist, so you can easily include it in your project through Composer.

Before you begin, make sure that you have installed Composer. In your command-line tool, go to the Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento 2) folder and run the following commands:

  1. Install the plugin:

    composer require adyen/module-payment
  2. Enable the plugin: 

    bin/magento module:enable Adyen_Payment
  3. Execute the update scripts:

    bin/magento setup:upgrade
  4. Flush cache storage:

    bin/magento cache:flush

    If you are using a caching layer such as Varnish, you need to exclude the following URL pattern from being cached: /adyen/process/*.

(Optional) Use Express Checkout flows

Only possible with the Adobe Commerce plugin v8.8.0 and later versions.

Express Checkout is available for Apple Pay and Google Pay. To activate the Express Checkout Module, go to the Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento 2) folder and run the following commands in your command-line tool:

  1. Install the plugin:

    composer require adyen/adyen-magento2-expresscheckout
  2. Enable the plugin: 

    bin/magento module:enable Adyen_ExpressCheckout
  3. Execute the update scripts:

    bin/magento setup:upgrade
  4. Flush cache storage:

    bin/magento cache:flush

Step 2: Run cron

To process webhooks, update cache, and close unfinished orders, you need to have cron running on your server. For instructions on how to set up cron in Adobe Commerce, refer to Configure and run cron.

The cron job generation time interval for the adyen_payment group is set to 1 minute. 

Step 3: Configure the plugin in Adobe Commerce

Before you begin, make sure that you have set up your Adyen Customer Area.

For the Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento 2) plugin v8.4.0 or later there are two ways to configure the required settings for the plugin:

  • Automated:

    • We recommend this option if you are new to the Adobe Commerce plugin.
    • The required settings are configured automatically for you by using your API key.
    • You can also reconfigure your integration using this option, but in that case the older configuration will be lost.
  • Manual:

    • We recommend this option if you have used the Adobe Commerce (formerly Magento 2) plugin before or if you want to re-configure your plugin.
    • You manually generate credentials in your Customer Area to configure your integration.

If you are using a plugin version before v8.4.0, see the configuration options for older versions.

Configure the Adyen plugin in your Adobe Commerce admin panel: 

  1. Log in to your Adobe Commerce admin panel. 
  2. In the left navigation bar, go to Stores > Configuration
  3. In the menu, go to Sales > Payment Methods.
