Components is our pre-built UI solution for accepting payments on your website. Each component renders a payment method which you can place anywhere on your website. This integration requires you to make API requests to /paymentMethods, /payments, and /payments/details endpoints.
Adding new payment methods usually doesn't require more development work. Components supports cards, wallets, and most local payment methods.
How it works
The following flow applies for each payment method Component:
On this page we describe both server-side and client-side integration steps:
- From your server, submit a request to get a list of payment methods available to the shopper.
- Add the specific payment method Component to your payments form.
- From your server, submit a payment request with the data returned by the Component.
- Determine from the response if you need to perform additional actions on your front end, such as to redirect the shopper.
- From your server, submit additional payment details.
- Present the payment result to the shopper.
Before you begin
If you haven't done so already, follow our Get started guide to set up your test account, get your API key, and install a server-side library.
To make sure that your 3D Secure integration works on Chrome, your cookies need to have the SameSite attribute. For more information, refer to Chrome SameSite Cookie policy.
Step 1: Get available payment methods
When your shopper is ready to pay, get a list of the available payment methods based on their country, device, and the payment amount.
From your server, make a POST /paymentMethods request, specifying:
Parameter name | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
merchantAccount |
![]() |
Your merchant account name. |
amount |
The currency and value of the payment, in minor units. This is used to filter the list of available payment methods to your shopper. |
|
channel |
The platform of the shopper's device; use Web. This is used to filter the list of available payment methods to your shopper. | |
countryCode |
The shopper's country code. This is used to filter the list of available payment methods to your shopper. | |
shopperLocale |
By default, the shopperlocale is set to en-US. To change the language, set this to the shopper's language and country code. You also need to set the same locale within your Component configuration. |
Here's an example of how you would get the available payment methods for a shopper in the Netherlands, for a payment of 10 EUR:
curl https://checkout-test.adyen.com/v69/paymentMethods \
-H "x-API-key: YOUR_X-API-KEY" \
-H "content-type: application/json" \

}'
require 'adyen-ruby-api-library'
# Set your X-API-KEY with the API key from the Customer Area.
adyen = Adyen::Client.new
adyen.env = :test
adyen.api_key = "YOUR_X-API-KEY"
response = adyen.checkout.payment_methods({

paymentMethodsRequest.setChannel(PaymentMethodsRequest.ChannelEnum.Web);
PaymentMethodsResponse paymentMethodsResponse = checkout.paymentMethods(paymentMethodsRequest);
// Pass the response to your front end
// Set your X-API-KEY with the API key from the Customer Area.
$client = new \Adyen\Client();
$client->setEnvironment(\Adyen\Environment::TEST);
$client->setXApiKey("YOUR_X-API-KEY");
$service = new \Adyen\Service\Checkout($client);
$params = array(
"countryCode" => "NL",
"shopperLocale" => "nl-NL",
"amount" => array(
"currency" => "EUR",
"value" => 1000
),
"channel" => "Web",
"merchantAccount" => "YOUR_MERCHANT_ACCOUNT"
);
$result = $service->paymentMethods($params);
# Set your X-API-KEY with the API key from the Customer Area.

var client = new Client (apiKey, Environment.Test);
var checkout = new Checkout(client);

},
Channel: "Web",
MerchantAccount: "[YOUR_MERCHANT_ACCOUNT]",
})
The response includes the list of available paymentMethods
, ordered by popularity in the shopper's country.
Pass the response to your front end. You'll use this in the next step to show which payment methods are available for the shopper.
Step 2: Add Components to your payments form
Next, use the Component to render the payment method, and collect the required payment details from your shopper. Install the Adyen Web Node package or use a <script>
tag.
-
Install the Adyen Web Node package:
npm install @adyen/adyen-web --save
-
Import Adyen Web into your application:
import AdyenCheckout from '@adyen/adyen-web'; import '@adyen/adyen-web/dist/adyen.css';
You can add your own styling by overriding the rules in this CSS file.
-
Create a DOM element on your checkout page, placing it where you want the payment method form to be rendered.
<div id="component-container"></div>
If you are using JavaScript frameworks such as Vue or React, make sure that you use references instead of selectors and that you don't re-render the DOM element.
-
Create a
configuration
object with the following parameters:Parameter name Required Description paymentMethodsResponse
The full /paymentMethods
response returned in step 1.clientKey
A public key linked to your API credential, used for client-side authentication.
Web Components versions before 3.10.1 useoriginKey
instead. Find out how to migrate from usingoriginKey
toclientKey
.locale
The shopper's locale. This is used to set the language rendered in the UI. For a list of supported locales, see Localization. environment
Use test. When you're ready to accept live payments, change the value to one of our live environments. onChange
oronSubmit
Create an event handler for either of the following:
-onChange
: Called when shopper provides the required payment details
-onSubmit
: Called when the shopper selects the Pay button. This applies if you use our pre-built Pay button. Refer to theshowPayButton
configuration in Configuring Components.
In the example below, we usehandleOnChange
.onAdditionalDetails
Create an event handler, used for native 3D Secure 2, and for native QR code payment methods. In the example below, we use handleOnAdditionalDetails
.amount
The currency
andvalue
of the transaction.countryCode
The shopper's country code. analytics.enabled
Added in v5.16.0Indicates if you're sending analytics data to Adyen. Default: true. function handleOnChange(state, component) { state.isValid // True or false. Specifies if all the information that the shopper provided is valid. state.data // Provides the data that you need to pass in the `/payments` call. component // Provides the active component instance that called this event. } function handleOnAdditionalDetails(state, component) { state.data // Provides the data that you need to pass in the `/payments/details` call. component // Provides the active component instance that called this event. } const configuration = { locale: "en_US", // The shopper's locale. For a list of supported locales, see https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/web-components/localization-components. environment: "test", // When you're ready to accept live payments, change the value to one of our live environments https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/components-web#testing-your-integration. clientKey: "YOUR_CLIENT_KEY", // Your client key. To find out how to generate one, see https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/client-side-authentication. Web Components versions before 3.10.1 use originKey instead of clientKey. analytics: { enabled: true // Set to false to not send analytics data to Adyen. }, paymentMethodsResponse: paymentMethodsResponse, // The payment methods response returned in step 1. onChange: handleOnChange, // Your function for handling onChange event onAdditionalDetails: handleOnAdditionalDetails // Your function for handling onAdditionalDetails event };
-
Use the
configuration
object to create an instance ofAdyenCheckout
. In Components versions 5.0.0 or later, the creation ofAdyenCheckout
is asynchronous:const checkout = await AdyenCheckout(configuration);
-
Then use the
checkout.create
method to create and mount an instance of the payment method Component.Some payment method Components require additional configuration. For more information, refer to our payment method integration guides.
For example, here is how you would mount the Card Component using its component name,
card
:const card = checkout.create('card').mount('#component-container');
You can also include optional Card Component configuration.
When the shopper enters the payment details, the Component will call the
onChange
event (oronSubmit
, if you are using our pre-built Pay button). Ifstate.isValid
is true, collect the values passed instate.data
. These are the shopper details that you will need to make the payment. -
Pass the
state.data
to your server.{ isValid: true, data: { paymentMethod: { type: "scheme", encryptedCardNumber: "adyenjs_0_1_18$MT6ppy0FAMVMLH...", encryptedExpiryMonth: "adyenjs_0_1_18$MT6ppy0FAMVMLH...", encryptedExpiryYear: "adyenjs_0_1_18$MT6ppy0FAMVMLH...", encryptedSecurityCode: "adyenjs_0_1_18$MT6ppy0FAMVMLH..." } } }
Configuring Components
You can include the following additional configuration when instantiating Components on your payments form:
You can also override the values that you set here by specifying these parameters for individual payment methods at the Component level.
Configuration object | Description |
---|---|
showPayButton |
Adyen provides a Pay button. To use the Pay button for each payment method, set this to true. The Pay button triggers the onSubmit event. If you want to use your own button and then trigger the submit flow on your own, set this to false and call the .submit() method from your own button implementation. For example, component.submit() . |
amount |
Amount to be displayed on the Pay Button. It expects an object with the value and currency properties. For example, { value: 1000, currency: 'USD' } . |
setStatusAutomatically |
v 4.7.0 Set to false to not set the Component status to 'loading' when onSubmit is triggered. Defaults to true. |
Events
Use the following events to include additional logic on your checkout page:
Event name | Description |
---|---|
onChange(state, component) |
Called when the shopper has provided the required payment details for the specific payment method. |
onError(error) |
Called when an error occurs in the Component. |
onSubmit(state, component) |
Called when the shopper selects the Pay button. |
onAdditionalDetails(state,component) |
Called when a payment method requires more details. |
For example, here are the additional configuration that you need to include to show the pre-built Pay button:
function handleOnSubmit(state, component) {
state.isValid // True or false. Specifies if all the information that the shopper provided is valid.
state.data // Provides the data that you need to pass in the `/payments` call.
component // Provides the active component instance that called this event.
}
const configuration = {
...
showPayButton: true,
onSubmit: handleOnSubmit,
amount: { // Optional. Used to display the amount in the Pay Button.
value: 1000,
currency: 'EUR'
}
};
const checkout = new AdyenCheckout(configuration);
Methods
All Components support the following methods:
Method name | Description |
---|---|
mount(selector) |
Mounts the Component into the DOM returned by the selector . The selector must be either a valid CSS selector string or an HTMLElement reference. |
unmount() |
Unmounts the Component from the DOM. We recommend to unmount in case the payment amount changes after the initial mount. |
Step 3: Make a payment
After the shopper submits their payment details or chooses to pay with a payment method that requires a redirection, you need to make a payment request to Adyen.
From your server, make a /payments request specifying:
Parameter name | Required | Description |
---|---|---|
merchantAccount |
![]() |
Your merchant account name. |
amount |
![]() |
The currency of the payment and its value in minor units. |
reference |
![]() |
Your unique reference for this payment. |
paymentMethod |
![]() |
The state.data.paymentMethod from the onChange or onSubmit event from your front end. |
returnUrl |
![]() |
URL to where the shopper should be taken back to after a redirection. The URL can contain a maximum of 1024 characters and should include the protocol: http:// or https:// . You can also include your own additional query parameters, for example, shopper ID or order reference number. |
applicationInfo
|
If you're building an Adyen solution for multiple merchants, include some basic identifying information, so that we can offer you better support. For more information, refer to Building Adyen solutions. |
You need to include additional parameters in your payment request to:
- Integrate some payment methods. For more information, refer to our payment method integration guides.
- Make use of our risk management features. For more information, see Required risk fields.
- Use native 3D Secure 2 authentication.
- Tokenize your shopper's payment details or make recurring payments.
Here's an example of how you would make a payment request for 10 EUR:
curl https://checkout-test.adyen.com/v69/payments \
-H "x-API-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "content-type: application/json" \

Your next steps depend on whether the /payments response contains an action
object. Choose your API version:
Description | Next steps | |
---|---|---|
no action object |
No additional steps are needed to complete the payment. | Use the resultCode to present the payment result to your shopper. |
With action object |
The shopper needs to do additional actions to complete the payment. | 1. Call handleAction , passing the action object. 2. Proceed to step 4. |
The following example shows a /payments response with action.type
: redirect.
Step 4: Perform additional front-end actions
Some payment methods require additional action from the shopper such as: to scan a QR code, to authenticate a payment with 3D Secure, or to log in to their bank's website to complete the payment. To handle these additional front-end actions:
Call handleAction
, passing the action
object from the previous step. Your next steps depend on the type of action that the Component performs:
action.type |
Description | Next steps |
---|---|---|
voucher | The Component displays the voucher which the shopper uses to complete the payment. |
1. Proceed to step 6 and inform the shopper that you are waiting for the payment. 2. Wait for the notification webhook to know the payment result. |
redirect | The Component redirects the shopper to another website or app to complete the payment. |
1. When the shopper returns to your website, your server needs to handle the redirect result. 2. Proceed to step 5 to check the payment result. |
qrCode | The Component presents the QR code and calls the onAdditionalDetails event. |
1. Get the state.data from the onAdditionalDetails event and pass it your server. 2. Proceed to step 5 to check the payment result. |
await | The Component shows the waiting screen while the shopper completes the payment. Depending on the payment outcome, the Component calls the onAdditionalDetails or onError event. |
1. Get the state.data object from the onAdditionalDetails or onError event and pass it your server. 2. Proceed to step 5 to check the payment result. |
sdk | The Component presents the specific payment method's UI as an overlay and calls the onAdditionalDetails event. |
1. Get the state.data from the onAdditionalDetails event and pass it your server. 2. Proceed to step 5 to check the payment result. |
threeDS2 | The payment qualifies for 3D Secure 2, and will go through either the frictionless or the challenge flow. | 1. Pass the action object to your front end. 2. Use the 3D Secure 2 Component to perform the authentication flow and to complete the payment. |
Handle the redirect result
If you receive an action.type
redirect, the Component redirects your shopper to another website to complete the payment or go through 3D Secure redirect authentication.
After the shopper completes the payment or authentication, they are redirected back to your returnUrl
with an HTTP GET. The returnUrl
is appended with a Base64-encoded redirectResult
:
GET /?shopperOrder=12xy..&&redirectResult=X6XtfGC3%21Y... HTTP/1.1
Host: www.your-company.com/checkout
-
Get the
redirectResult
appended to your return URL and pass it to your back end.If a shopper completed the payment but failed to return to your website, wait for the notification webhook to know the payment result. -
Proceed to step 5.
Step 5: Submit additional payment details
If the shopper performed additional action, you need to submit additional details to either complete the payment, or to check the payment result.
Make a /payments/details request, and include:
- For
action.type
: redirect, pass in your request:details
: Object that contains the URL-decodedredirectResult
.
- For
action.type
: qrCode, await, sdk, or threeDS2, pass in your request thestate.data
from theonAdditionalDetails
event.
The following example shows how you would submit additional payment details in case of a redirect.
The response includes:
pspReference
: Our unique identifier for the transaction.resultCode
: Indicates the status of the payment. You can use this to present the payment result to your shopper in step 6.
Step 6: Present the payment result
After the shopper completes the payment and no further actions are required on the front end or client app, use the resultCode
to inform the shopper of the payment status.
resultCode | Description | Action to take |
---|---|---|
Authorised | The payment was successful. | Inform the shopper that the payment was successful. |
Error | Inform the shopper that there was an error processing their payment. | You'll receive a refusalReason in the same response, indicating the cause of the error. |
Pending | The shopper has completed the payment but the final result is not yet known. | 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 notification. |
PresentToShopper | Present the voucher or the QR code to the shopper. | For a voucher payment method, inform the shopper that you are waiting for their payment. You will receive the final result of the payment in an AUTHORISATION notification. For a qrCode payment method, wait for the AUTHORISATION notification before presenting the payment result to the shopper. |
Refused | The payment was refused. | Inform the shopper that the payment was refused. Ask the shopper to try the payment again using a different payment method or card. |
Received | For some payment methods, it can take some time before the final status of the payment is known. | Inform the shopper that you've received their order, and are waiting for the payment to clear. You will receive the final result of the payment in an AUTHORISATION notification. |
For other possible resultCode
values and recommended messages that you can present to your shopper, see Result codes.
Error handling
In case you encounter errors in your integration, refer to the following:
- API error codes: If you receive a non-HTTP 200 response, use the
errorCode
to troubleshoot and modify your request. - Payment refusals: If you receive an HTTP 200 response with an Error or Refused
resultCode
, check the refusal reason and, if possible, modify your request.
Test and go live
Before going live, use our test cards numbers to test your integration. We recommend testing each payment method that you intend to offer to your shoppers.
You can check the status of a test payment in your Customer Area, under Transactions > Payments.
When you are ready to go live, you need to:
- Apply for a live account.
- Assess your PCI DSS compliance by submitting the Self-Assessment Questionnaire-A.
- Configure your live account.
- Submit a request to add payment methods in your live Customer Area .
- Switch from test to our live endpoints.
