Introduction

This document will guide you through the PayTo Payments platform which is a new way for businesses to initiate near real-time payments from bank accounts.

Note

This product is currently in early stages of release. Please reach out to your Partner Manager at Payrix to discuss availability and timeline.


Steps

In order to begin and understand the API workflow of creating agreements and submitting payments via PayTo, the typical API flow is outlined below:

  1. Add a New Payer

    1. A payer record must be created firstly in order to have a PayTo Agreement created.

    2. Use this endpoint to create a payer record and map the payer between your application and Payrix.

  2. Agreement Create

    1. Use this endpoint to register a new PayTo Agreement.  The approval, processing and acceptance of the new agreement is performed asynchronously - you will need to be subscribed to our PayTo Agreement event webhooks to be notified of whether the agreement was approved by PayTo and whether or not your customer has accepted the agreement.

  3. Agreement Lookup

    1. Returns the full details, including the current status, of the agreement with the given reference.

  4. Payment Submit

    1. This endpoint will submit a new PayTo Payment for an existing agreement.  The processing of the new payment is performed asynchronously - you will need subscribe to our PayTo Payment event webhooks to be notified of the result of the transaction.

      1. Note that the agreement must be in the ACTIVE status for payments to be able to be processed for it.

  5. Payment Lookup

    1. Returns the full details, including the current status, of the PayTo Payment with the given reference. Only payments processed within the last 6 months can be looked up using this method - use Transaction Search for older payments.

  6. Agreement Status Update

    1. Can be used to update the status of an existing agreement.  The processing of the status change is performed asynchronously - you will need subscribe to our PayTo Agreement event webhooks to be notified as to whether or not the status change was successful.

  7. Setup Webhooks

    To set up webhooks for testing and production the below will need to be setup:

    1. Webhook Url: You provide us a single URL (must be https://) to which we will POST all our web messages for all event types.

    2. Shared Secret:

      • Production: This is a randomly generated 88-character string that is unique to your business which we will generate and provide to you.

      • Sandbox: Payrix Integrations/Implementations team will provide the credentials to you for testingTo set up webhooks for testing and production the below will need to be setup:

        1. Webhook Url: You provide us a single URL (must be https://) to which we will POST all our web messages for all event types.

Step7Setup-Webhooks
Step7Setup-Webhooks
Step 7 - Setup Webhooks

To set up webhooks for testing and production the below will need to be setup:

  1. Webhook Url: You provide us a single URL (must be https://) to which we will POST all our web messages for all event types.

  2. Shared Secret:

    • Production: This is a randomly generated 88-character string that is unique to your business which we will generate and provide to you.

    • Sandbox: Payrix Integrations/Implementations team will provide the credentials to you for testing.

  • To prove a webhook is a legitimate and unaltered message that was sent by Payrix, and is intended for you, we include a signature which must be validated using a shared secret.

  • When we send you a webhook we will look for a successful (2xx) HTTP Status response from your web app. If we receive it we will consider the webhook successfully delivered. If we receive a status other than 2xx, or if we are unable to connect to your webhook URL, we will attempt to deliver the webhook an additional 3 times using the following back-off frequency:

    • 1st Retry - After 30 minutes.

    • 2nd Retry - After 2 hours.

    • 3rd Retry - After 24 hours.

  • Our webhook message can contain one of more data objects depending on the event type. The data provided in the webhook is the current status of that entity at the time the webhook is generated. In general, determining what change occurred can be deduced just from the EventType itself, with the data object(s) only needed to get the ID/Reference to match to the entity in your system.

  • In some situations (e.g. connection dropouts or timeouts), a webhook might be delivered to you multiple times. We provide a unique Message ID with each webhook which you can use for duplicate checking.

  • In some situations (e.g. if a webhook is unable to be delivered on first attempt), webhooks might be delivered out of sequence. For some event types, before actioning a webhook, it might be prudent to check the current status of the related entities in your system to make sure processing the webhook would not cause an invalid workflow. We provide timestamps with each webhook which can be useful for determining sequencing.

Webhook Messages

Our webhook messages are delivered with the following:

HTTP Headers

The following HTTP headers are included with each webhook:

  • x-payrix-id - A GUID providing a unique ID for identifying this particular webhook. This can be used for duplicate checking.

  • x-payrix-timestamp - Unix/Epoch time (milliseconds since 01/01/1970) for when the webhook was generated. Can be used for event sequencing.

  • x-payrix-signature - Base-64 encoded HMAC-SHA256 signature. This must be used to verify the legitimacy of the message by taking the entire POST body of the message and performing your own HMAC-SHA256 calculation using your shared secret and checking that the value you get matches the signature.

HTTP POST Body

The payload of the message is a JSON rendering of the Webhook Message Model described below.

Webhook Model

All our webhooks, for all event types, share a single overall data model. This model includes one or more sub-models depending on the types of entities that were affected by the event the webhook is reporting.

Webhook Message Model with the following fields:

  • Id (string) - A GUID providing a unique ID for identifying this particular webhook. This can be used for duplicate checking.

  • EventTime (DateTime) - Date/time when the event triggering the webhook occurred.

  • EventType (enum) - The event that occurred which the webhook is a notification of. Will be one of the following:

    • npp_payto_agreement_active

    • npp_payto_agreement_amended

    • npp_payto_agreement_cancelled

    • npp_payto_agreement_declined

    • npp_payto_agreement_disputed

    • npp_payto_agreement_error

    • npp_payto_agreement_pending

    • npp_payto_agreement_recalled

    • npp_payto_agreement_resolution

    • npp_payto_agreement_resumed

    • npp_payto_agreement_suspended

    • npp_payto_agreement_timeout

    • npp_payto_payment_disputed

    • npp_payto_payment_error

    • npp_payto_payment_pending

    • npp_payto_payment_rejected

    • npp_payto_payment_resolution

    • npp_payto_payment_successful

    • npp_payto_payment_refunded

  • Transaction (model: Transaction Search) - If the event relates to a particular transaction, the details of the transaction are provided here.

  • Payer (model: Payer Info) - If the event relates to a particular payer, the details of the payer are provided here.

  • Agreement (model: Agreement Search) - If the event relates to a particular PayTo Agreement, the details of the agreement are provided here.

  • SentTime (DateTime) - Date/time when the webhook was first sent.

  • Timestamp (long integer) - Unix/Epoch time (milliseconds since 01/01/1970) for when the webhook was generated. Can be used for event sequencing.
