PayPerEmail Service

1. Introduction

The PayPerEmail service allows you to send an email to a customer with a payment invitation link. Upon clicking the link, the customer can choose from various payment methods or proceed with a preselected method. You can either configure Buckaroo to send the email with a custom template or send the email yourself using the link provided by the Buckaroo Payment Engine.

2. Requirements

• Service Subscription: The PayPerEmail service requires an additional service subscription that supports the Pay action, as it does not process payments directly.

3. Workflow

1. Request Submission: The merchant sends a PayPerEmail request to the Buckaroo Payment Engine (BPE) transaction gateway.
2. Response and Push Notification: The gateway processes the request, sends a response to the merchant, and a transaction push notification with the transaction status.
3. Email Sending:
   • If configured, Buckaroo sends the email with the payment link.
   • Alternatively, the merchant sends the email using the provided link.
4. Payment Process:
   • The customer clicks the link and is taken to the payment page to complete the transaction.
   • After completion, the customer is redirected back to the merchant’s website with transaction details.
   • A transaction push notification is also sent to the merchant with transaction details.

4. Single PayPerEmail, Multiple Transactions

• A PayPerEmail transaction triggers at least one transaction, namely the PayPerEmail transaction.
• When the customer follows the payment link and initiates the payment, a new transaction is created.
• Once the payment is successful, the PayPerEmail transaction is marked as "Succeeded".
• Push notifications are sent for all involved transactions.

Note: Some payment methods (e.g., direct debit, credit card) can be reversed, affecting the associated transactions' status.
