Setup steps | Before you begin, add in your Customer Area. |
Preparation
- Create a developer account on the WeChat Open Platform.
- Register your mobile app with WeChat.
Show WeChat Pay in your payment form
Drop-in uses the countryCode
and the amount.currency
from your /paymentMethods request to show the available payment methods to your shopper.
To show WeChat Pay in your payment form, specify in your /paymentMethods request:
- countryCode: Any supported country/region. For example, CN.
- amount.currency: Any supported currency. For example, CNY.
WeChat Pay is only shown in the payment form if WeChat app is available in the shopper's device.
Make a payment
When the shopper proceeds to pay, Drop-in returns the paymentComponentData.paymentMethod
.
-
Pass the
paymentComponentData.paymentMethod
to your server. -
From your server, make a /payments request, specifying:
paymentMethod
: ThepaymentComponentData.paymentMethod
from your client app.
The /payments response includes an
action
object that contains information about the app switch. -
Pass the
action
object to your client app.
Check the payment result
Drop-in uses the action
object to launch the WeChat app, where the shopper completes the payment, and is then redirected back to your app.
To check the payment result, make a /payments/details
request.
Present the payment result
Use the resultCode
that you received in the /payments/details response to present the payment result to your shopper.
The resultCode
values you can receive for WeChat Pay are:

Refused | The payment was refused by the shopper's bank. | Ask the shopper to try the payment again using a different payment method. |
Test and go live
WeChat Pay currently has no test platform. If you have a personal WeChat account you can test your integration by either:
- Canceling the transaction when you are asked to verify the payment (recommended).
- Making live WeChat Pay payments with a low value.
You can check the status of a WeChat Pay payment in your Customer Area > Transactions > Payments.
Before you can accept live WeChat Pay payments, you need to submit a request for WeChat Pay in your live Customer Area.
