In a platform setup, your users' have their own unique connection to the card schemes, represented by their stores in your platform. When processing payments for your users, you need to direct each payment to the appropriate store.
In-person payments made on a terminal are automatically routed to the store that is connected to the terminal.
Before you begin
To process online payments for your users, you will need to:
-
Set up an Adyen for Platforms integration with:
- Account holders (Users).
- Balance accounts.
- Stores with configured payment methods (only for the platform setup).
-
Ensure that your server can receive and accept webhooks.
-
Have access to the API credentials for Checkout API.
Route a payment to a store
When making a POST /payments request, send the store field with the reference of the store to which you want to route the payment.
This reference is the same that you provided when creating the store. You can get it by making a GET /merchants/{merchantId}/stores request, or navigating to Point of sale > Stores in your Customer Area.
While you can split a payment across multiple balance accounts, you can only process it through a single store.
The following example shows how to route a payment to a single store.
The response contains all routing and split information of the payment.
