Requests
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
- Request Submission: The merchant sends a PayPerEmail request to the Buckaroo Payment Engine (BPE) transaction gateway.
- Response and Push Notification: The gateway processes the request, sends a response to the merchant, and a transaction push notification with the transaction status.
- Email Sending:
- If configured, Buckaroo sends the email with the payment link.
- Alternatively, the merchant sends the email using the provided link.
- 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 merchantβs 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.
5. Service Code and Actions
- Service Code: payperemail
- Supported Action: paymentinvitation β This action sends an invitation to the consumer to make a payment.
6. PaymentInvitation Action
The paymentinvitation action is the only action provided by the PayPerEmail service, it is also the default action. The action is used to register a payment invitation and it will result in a paylink that is either sent via email by Buckaroo, or that is returned in the response message, so the merchant can send it via email.
Payment Invitation Request
Parameters
Parameter | Type | Required | Recommended | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
CustomerGender | Decimal | Yes | Gender of the customer, possible values: 1: Male, 2: Female, 0: Unknown, 9: Not applicable. | |
CustomerEmail | String | Required when MerchantSendsEmail = True | The e-mail address of the customer. | |
CustomerFirstName | String | Yes | The first name of the customer. | |
CustomerLastName | String | Yes | The last name of the customer. | |
MerchantSendsEmail | Boolean | False: Buckaroo will send the e-mail to the customer. True: Buckaroo will not send the e-mail and will only provide the paylink in the response. Default value is false. | ||
ExpirationDate | String | The expiration date (dd-mm-yyyy) for the paylink. From this date onwards, the paylink will no longer work. (Please note that if a βdelayedβ payment has been chosen (like bank transfer) on the paylink page before this expiration date, the payment for that payment can still arrive and be accepted.) | ||
PaymentMethodsAllowed | String | A comma separated list of service codes specifying which services (that support the Pay action) can be used to pay the PayPerEmail with. The order in which the payment methods are listed also determines the order in which they are displayed to the customer on the Buckaroo checkout page. If no service code is provided, all services the merchant has a valid subscription for are offered to the customer. Please note: if you are sending the service Credit Management in the request as well, this parameter won't work. Instead you can use the "AllowedServices" and "AllowedServicesAfterDueDate" parameters within the Credit Management service. See the Credit Management documentation for more information. |

9. Attachments
It is possible to let the Payment Engine send emails that include attachment. However, the attachment must first be uploaded to the Buckaroo SFTP server. Please contact your sales contact for information about our SFTP service. If an attachment is not available at the time of requesting a PayPerEmail, the PaymentInvitation request will fail.
9.1 Uploading Your Attachments
Your attachment needs to be uploaded in the subfolder of your SFTP home folder: ~/uploads/attachments/
At this time, only PDF files are allowed to be uploaded. There is a maximum file size of 300kB and all files need to be virus-free. After your files have been uploaded, allow at least 30 minutes for us to verify your files conform to our guidelines. Once the attachments folder is empty, your files will have been processed and are available for use. Please note: attachments are only available for 2 weeks; after 2 weeks, attachments will be removed.
