Wirecard Payment Page v2

Wirecard Payment Page v1 LEGACY is no longer supported. We recommend using Wirecard Payment Page v2 integration instead. If you have questions about your existing Wirecard Payment Page v1 integration, consult our REST API integration guide.

General Information

This is a reference page for paysafecard. Here you find all the information necessary for integrating this payment method in your Hosted and Embedded Payment Page.

Are you unfamiliar with Wirecard Payment Page v2 (WPP v2)?
Visit one of the integration guides (Hosted, Embedded) for a quick explanation and a step-by-step guide before continuing.

All WPP v2 integrations share a common process flow for creating payments.

Below, you find example requests for debit, authorization and capture-authorization, including field lists with short descriptions.

These requests are designed for the testing environment and do not use real information.

For production, you need to use production credentials. For details contact our merchant support.

All given requests return successful responses.

For more details on the redirect-url, see the Configuring Redirects and IPNs for WPP v2 section.

For response verification examples, see the WPP v2 Security section.

About paysafecard

paysafecard is a well-known prepaid electronic payment method for mainly online shopping e.g. in gaming, social media & communities and music, film & entertainment industries. paysafecard is currently available in many countries and languages all over the world. It offers a broad selection of currencies to choose from.

Consumers either purchase a paysafecard voucher which contains a 16-digit PIN from sales outlets or from authorized online PIN shops, or alternatively, create a my paysafecard account defining their personal username and password.

paysafecard PINs can be used multiple times for paying in online shops or for topping up the my paysafecard account.

Using my paysafecard during the payment process in an online shop, you do not have to reenter the PIN again, only username and password are required.

Paying with paysafecard, the consumer enters the 16 digit number and the amount tendered is deducted from the paysafecard balance. Thus, the same PIN code can be used multiple times. For larger sums, it is possible to combine various paysafecard PINs. Combining PINs also allows consumers to use up any remaining credit on a paysafecard PIN. The current balance of each paysafecard as well as its transaction history and production date can be viewed at the official paysafecard site by entering the respective 16 digit PIN code.

Payments for goods or services other than EUR are converted into EUR at the conversion rate at the time of purchase. The conversion fee varies depending on the original currency and end currency and it varies from country to country. The currency conversion rates for foreign currencies are always available on the paysafecard web site.

Transaction Type debit

A debit transaction charges the consumer’s paysafecard account with the specified amount and transfers it immediately.

For a successful debit transaction:

  1. Create a payment session (initial debit request).

  2. Redirect the consumer to the payment page (initial response URL).

  3. Highly recommended: Parse and process the payment response.

We provide ready-made JSON examples for each step of this process. You can find them below.

Endpoint for paysafecard payments.

Initial Request

The initial request creates the payment session. If it is successful, you receive a URL as a response which redirects to the payment form.

request-id

String

Mandatory

150

A unique identifier assigned by the merchant to each request. Used when searching for or referencing it later.

You may enter any request-id that has never been used before.

As the request ID must be unique, {{$guid}} serves as a placeholder; Postman uses it to generate a random request-id for testing.

Allowed characters: [a-z0-9-_]

transaction-type

String

Mandatory

n/a

The requested transaction type, i.e. debit.

Available transaction types for paysafecard:

  • authorization

The full amount that is requested/contested in a transaction. 2 decimal digits allowed.

Use . (decimal point) as the separator.

Format: 3-character abbreviation according to ISO 4217.

account-holder

merchant-crm-id

String

Mandatory

The parameter must not be a human readable email address. However, if an email address is used, you have to hash it beforehand.

payment-method

String

Mandatory

256

The name of the payment method used for the transaction, i.e. paysafecard

notification-url

String

Optional

The URL to which Wirecard Payment Gateway sends the transaction outcome.

fail-redirect-url

String

Mandatory

cancel-redirect-url

String

Mandatory

2000

2. Redirect the Consumer to the Payment Page (Initial Response URL)
{
"payment-redirect-url": "https://wpp-test.wirecard.com/processing?wPaymentToken=V7VmWd2cB5hR9LB7X_KZRYDbY1brTNYpvZI-p98DnuE"
}
Field (JSON) Data Type Description

payment-redirect-url

String

The URL which redirects to the payment form (hosted by paysafecard). Sent as a response to the initial request.

At this point, you need to redirect your consumer to payment-redirect-url (or render it in an iframe depending on your integration method).

Consumers are redirected to the payment form. There they enter their data and submit the form to confirm the payment. A payment can be:

  • successful (transaction-state: success),

  • failed (transaction-state: failed),

  • canceled. The consumer canceled the payment before/after submission (transaction-state: failed).

The transaction result is the value of transaction-state in the payment response. More details (including the status code) can also be found in the payment response in the statuses object. Canceled payments are returned as failed, but the status description indicates it was canceled.

In any case (unless the consumer cancels the transaction on a 3rd party provider page), a base64 encoded response containing payment information is sent to the configured redirection URL. See Configuring Redirects and IPNs for WPP v2 for more details on redirection targets after payment & transaction status notifications.

You can find a decoded payment response example below.

Transaction Type authorization

An authorization

  • reserves funds on a consumer’s paysafecard account (e.g. until the merchant ships/delivers the goods/services).

  • does not trigger money transfer.

To transfer money, the amount has to be captured with the transaction type capture-authorization.

For a successful authorization transaction

  1. Create an authorization session (initial authorization request).

  2. Redirect the consumer to the payment page (initial response URL).

  3. Highly recommended: Parse and process the payment response.

Endpoint for paysafecard payments.

Initial Request

The initial request creates the payment session. If it’s successful, you receive a URL as a response which redirects to the paysafecard payment form.
