Integration

To perform an iDEAL payment, the consumer must also select their bank. This issuing bank selection can be done by the merchant, or in the payment gateway. If you wish to store the consumer’s issuing bank, you can include an issuer selection in the checkout process and pass it in the payment request. Otherwise, if the issuer is not included in the payment request, the gateway will show an issuer selection. When the issuer is known, the consumer is redirected to the issuing bank where they will be asked to verify their identity and confirm the payment. The status of the payment is then immediately known (unless an error occurs) and the consumer is redirected back to the merchant with the payment status.
