Payment with reservation
If at the moment of payment the amount of the transaction is not eventual, it is possible to reserve the money, and finalize it later in one or more steps. In case of reservation there is only one condition, the final amount cannot be higher then the reserved one. If the reservation ends with 0 currency, the reserved amount will be refunded to the user. Reservations both work with e-money or bank cards. If bank card was used the amount will be immediately sent to the payee (but will be reserved on the payee's wallet), in case of e-money the amount will be reserved at the payer. The reserved money can not be used until the reservation finished
Prerequisites
The prerequisites and is similar to Responsive Web Payment.
The payment process
The payment process and is similar to Responsive Web Payment.
However as a final step the reservation should be finished ( within the ReservationPeriod ) trough the v2/Payment/FinishReservation
API endpoint.
Preparing the payment
To prepare a new payment an HTTP POST request should be made to the /v2/Payment/Start API endpoint. The body of this request should contain a well-formed JSON representation of the desired payment process. To see the full specification of this endpoint head over to the API reference.
Structure
The structure of a Barion Gateway payment is hierarchical. The payment is the meta information that describes the process. This payment contains at least one transaction. The transaction represents a financial transfer from a customer to a seller. The payment can contain multiple transactions, this is up to the webshop to decide how the structure of the whole process should be represented. The purchased products should be represented in the Items array of the transactions. The total payment amount will be calculated from the attached transactions. The amount specified for the items is not validated against the transaction Total it is up to the integrator to make sure it is calculated appropriately.
Identification
To make sure that the payment can be properly identified always generate an Id for the payment, that is is unique in the webshop. This should be sent in the PaymentRequestId
property. This is true for all the transactions attached to the payment. For this user the POSTransactionId
of the PaymentTransaction entity. If the webshop only handles one transaction per payment it is possible to use the same Id for both the PaymentRequestId
and the POSTransactionId
although it is not recommended. In addition to this you can also provide an OrderNumber
for the payment.
Payment scenario
In this scenario the PaymenType
should be set to Reservation
indicating that the financial transaction should be finished at a later time. This means that the amount charged will be placed to reservation until the transaction is not completed. The property ReservationPeriod
should be set as well, indicating how long will the reservation stay active.
Every attached transaction has a Payee
property. That property indicates the user wallet that will receive the amount of the transaction. It is very important to make sure that this wallet is the same wallet that opened the webshop. In technical terms the POSKey
provided should belong to one of the Payee's shop. This is valid for all the transactions attached to the particular payment. If one of the payees is different the scenario autmatically will be upgraded to sharing economy scenario.
Currency
You can define the currency of the payment by specifying the Currency payment property. It is important to mention that multi-currency transactions are not supported. This means that the currency you define for the payment will be automatically the currency of all the attached transactions. The currency also defines the available precision of the transaction Total. For example for HUF payments no decimal digits allowed while for EUR payments two decimal digits can be used. To be able to receive payments in the selected currency the shop has to have an account created in that currency in the wallet. This means that if the shop only has HUF and USD accounts in its wallet, EUR payments will not be allowed to prepare. However in case of market place or sharing economy scenario, the agents and facilitator's accounts will be created for the given currency ( if not existed already).
Example preparation
This is an example POST Start with minimum provided information.

Example success response
In this response there are no errors because the Errors
array is empty. There is no fee charged for the payment because there is only one transaction in the Transactions
array and it's the one the webshop sent in.

Processing the error response
If there is something wrong during the preparation an error response will be provided. If this happens the Errors
array will be filled out with information about the problem.
Possible error responses
Error code | Description |
---|---|
ModelValidationError | This happens when some of the input properties fail the basic validation. For example when transaction set to reservation but no ReservationPeriod was given |
AuthenticationFailed | The provided POSKey is invalid. Check that the key used is appropriate for the environment. The test and production environment are separate so the keys are only valid for one environment. Another problem could be that the provided key is the public key and not the private key. For API requests the secret API key should be used.
|
ShopIsClosed | The shop is closed in the Barion system, no payments are allowed. |
InvalidUser | There is a problem with one of the participants taking part in the payment. All of them should be registered Barion users. |
UserCantReceiveEMoney | There is a problem with the recipient of the payment. Every Payee specified in the attached transactions should be a fully registered user of Barion.
|
NotExistingCurrency | The currency specified for the payment is not supported by the Barion system. |
InvalidFundingSource | The specified funding source is not valid. Check the FundingSources input parameter.
|
InvalidCulture | The specified culture is not supported by the Barion system. |
DoNotHaveEnoughMoneyToPreparePayment | In certain corner cases when the webshops Barion balance and the incoming money is not enough to cover the Barion fee this error message is sent. |
PaymentStatusNotValid | The status of the payment is InProgress already. |
Example error response
For example this is the error response when the authentication data (the POSKey
) is not correct.
{
"Errors": [
{
"ErrorCode": "AuthenticationFailed",
"Title": "User authentication failed.",
"Description": "The login information provided is incorrect. There is no such user in the system or the password is incorrect.",
"EndPoint": "https://api.barion.com/v2/payment/start",
"AuthData": null,
"HappenedAt": "2017-02-03T13:18:07.8878292Z"
}
]
}
Redirecting the customer
After a successful payment preparation the next step is to redirect the customer to the secure Barion site. The URL is provided in the response of the Payment/Start
request. Make sure that the user is redirected properly no iframe hacks are allowed. At this point the webshop gives the flow control to the Barion system. There is no need for constant GetPaymentState
requests, at least for a reasonable time period. The callback mechanism will take care of the notification. However mistakes could happen so after a reasonable time the webshop can make a GetPaymentState
request just to rule out any callback errors. Again, this should not be frequent, let the user fill out its credit card information. If you want to shorten the period the user is allowed to pay you can specify this time period in the PaymentWindow
property.
Once the customer arrives to the secure Barion server the payment GUI is displayed. At this point the customer either pays with e-money or with its credit card. If the payment fails for any reason (invalid card for example) the customer can try the payment again without leaving the Barion payment GUI. This means that the customer won't return automatically to webshop when the payment fails. This is worth mentioning because this could lengthen the time the customer takes at the Barion server.
Processing the callback
Once the payment completed a callback request is sent to webshop's server to the specified URL. In fact any change happens in the state of the payment a callback is sent out to notify the webshop. This can be interpreted as a signal to start a GetPaymentState
request towards the Barion system. The callback signal is only a signal does not indicate the success of the payment! Therefore a GetPaymentState
request is mandatory to make sure that the appropriate payment state is registered in the webshop as well. Read more about the whole callback mechanism.
Requesting information about the payment
Once the webshop server received the callback the webshop needs to request information about the outcome of the payment process. For this a Payment/GetPaymentState request should be sent to the Barion API.
Processing the returning customer
At the end of the payment process the customer decides whether to return to the webshop or just close the browser. Therefore no financial decision should be made based on the returning customer. The only valid way to decide what to do with the order to request information about the payment through the GetPaymentState API endpoint.
