Going live

When your payment solution is working properly in the sandbox, you are ready to go live. Using the live server requires a real contract and an approves shop, so prepare in advance. Read the Going live guide thoroughly and follow the instructions before going live.

Requirement for Smart Package

Please follow the Barion Logo Guidelines and place the appropriate logo on your page. Our experience shows that it is important for customers to show they can pay with Barion on your web site. We also think than keeping the logo consistent across all Barion merchants helps the entire Barion community. Using the logo is a requirement for all Barion price packages, omitting it results in rejecting live shops.

If you choose the Clever, Smart or Genius price package, you have to provide us with detailed cart content. Use the Item structure within the Items[] property of the PaymentTransaction structure of the Transactions property of the /Payment/Start API endpoint to pass data. The customers will see the cart content during payment and later in their Barion wallet history.

When providing cart content, please follow the guidelines below:

• Use real product names, generics such as "product" or "drink" will not work. Follow these examples:
  • Canon IXUS 110 Compact Digital Camera
  • Heineken lager 5L party barrel
• Provide all items in one collection
• Use all fields of the Item structure
• You may add discounts as a separate item, subtotals are not checked, so you can use negative prices
• You may add packaging or shipping cost as a separate item
• Provide a link to the image of the product if available, we will use it later for enhancing the payment UX

Limitations

Currently we do not allow placing the payment GUI in an <iframe> or similar solution.
