Basic Operations / Make A Payment

Intro

This guide will walk you through the process to do a payment using the opiPaymentApi The method we will use for this is: 


    void payment(ExternalTerminal terminal,Payment payment,PaymentDelegate paymentDelegate)

next up we will construct our request objects.

ExternalTerminal

The ExternalTerminal object contains everything regarding the terminal setup. The creation can be done manually as the code snippet beneath shows or using the paymentTerminalDiscoveryService which we recommend as this does this construction for you. \ When you retrieve your terminal you will be informed which protocol your terminal uses. FYI, OPI-NL & OPI-DE are terminal communication-protocols which your terminal uses


    ExternalTerminal externalTerminal = ExternalTerminal.builder()
            .ipAddress(ipAddress) // can be found using getting-started guide
            .port(terminalPort) // 4100 for OPI-NL & 20002 for OPI-DE
            .compatibilityPort(compatibilityPort) // 4102 for OPI-NL & 20007 for OPI-DE
            .socketMode(socketMode) // Dual-Socket for OPI-NL & Single-Socket for OPI-DE & OPI-NL
            .terminalType(terminalType) // EnumType which contains terminal protocol combined attended/unattended type
            .languageCode(LanguageCode.EN) // determines the language of the CashierDisplay messages (optional)
            .printerStatus(PrinterStatusType) // EnumType which contains the printer status: Available, Unavailable, PaperEmpty and PaperLow. Only for OPI-NL
            .shiftNumber(shiftNumber) // ShiftNumber is used to create a total during a specific shift.
            .merchantEmailAddress(merchantEmailAddress) // Passes the merchant email address to the terminal so the merchant receipt will be sent to it (OPI-NL via E-ReceiptServer, OPI-DE via OAM server)
            .customerEmailAddress(customerEmailAddress) // Passes the customer email address to the terminal so the customer receipt will be sent to it (OPI-NL via E-ReceiptServer, OPI-DE via OAM server)
            .supportMifareCards(true/false) // Indicates if you also want to read MiFare cards when performing a Sale, PreAuthorisation or CardDetection on an unattended OPI-NL terminal
            .receiptMode(ReceiptMode) // Pass to the terminal how you want to receive your receipts: Default (During the payment), Off (No receipts are send back), ReceiptsInResponse (Terminal send receipts with the end result). This is for OPI-DE terminals only 
            .build();

Payment

The Payment object contains everything about the payment you want to be executed on the terminal.


    Money money = new Money(new BigDecimal("0.05"), Currency.getInstance("EUR"));

    Payment payment = Payment
            .builder()
            .type(Payment.Type.SALE)
            .amount(money)
            .build();

Delegate

This is the callback mechanism which we use to pass the responses asynchronously to the integrator. 


    PaymentDelegate paymentDelegate = new PaymentDelegate() {
        @Override
        public void onPaymentSuccess(PaymentResult result) {
            // The payment is completed successful!
            // The paymentResult contains all information about the transaction            
        }
    
        @Override
        public void onError(Error error) {
            // The payment failed
            // The Error object contains information about what went wrong
        }

        @Override
        public void printMerchantReceiptAndSignature(PaymentReceipt receipt) {
            // Code to handle the MerchantReceipt
        }

        @Override   
        public void printCustomerReceiptAndSignature(PaymentReceipt receipt) {
            //Code to handle CustomerReceipt
        }

        @Override
        public void printDccOffer(PaymentReceipt receipt) {
            //Code to handle DCC (Dynamic Currency Conversion) receipt
        }

        @Override
        public void printJournalReceipt(PaymentReceipt receipt) {
            // Code to handle JournalReceipt
            // This is OPI-NL terminal-protocol specific
        }

        @Override
        public void storeEJournal(String journal) {
            // Code to store the E-Journal
            // This is OPI-NL terminal-protocol specific
        }

        @Override
        public void cardUID(String cardUID) {
            // This is OPI-NL Unattended terminal specific
        }
    };

Create API instance

Now that all our request objects are ready, we can create an instance of the api we want to use. For this guide this will be the paymentApi 

    PaymentApi paymentService = new eu.ccvlab.mapi.api.PaymentService();

Initiate your payment

Last but not least, we will execute the specific method payment method which will cause our payment to happen. 

    paymentService.payment(externalTerminal, payment, paymentDelegate);

PaymentResult OPI-DE terminals

PaymentResultDE has been removed, please use the PaymentResult object instead.

User interaction callback methods

During a payment it could occur that an extra interaction with the integrator is required.
The possible user interactions are:

  • identification and signature (When identification or signature of the cardholder is required)
  • deliverybox (to indicate if the goods are delivered before completing the transaction)

Identification and signature (Attended environment only)

When an identification and/or signature is needed from the cardholder this will indicated with the following methods on terminals with communication-protocl:
OPI-NL:

  • askMerchantSignature(Callback callback)
  • askCustomerSignature(Callback callback)
  • askCustomerIdentification(Callback callback)

OPI-DE:

  • askCustomerSignature(SignatureAsked signatureAsked)
  • drawCustomerSignature(CustomerSignatureCallback callback)

When an identification and/or signature is needed from the cardholder, the POS needs to create a dialog containing the corresponding message.
Although it is mandatory to show this text at least six seconds to the cashier, it is advised to keep this box available on the screen until the cashier presses/clicks it away.

Example snippet for ask customer signature on an OPI-NL configured terminal: 

    PaymentDelegate paymentDelegate = new PaymentDelegate() {
        @Override
        public void askCustomerSignature(Callback callback) {
            //Show dialog with corresponding message
            callback.proceed();
        }
    };

Corresponding example for OPI-DE configured terminal: 

    PaymentDelegate paymentDelegate = new PaymentDelegate() {
        @Override
        public void askCustomerSignature(SignatureAsked signatureAsked) {
            //Show dialog with corresponding message
            signatureAsked.signatureAsked();
        }
    };

Deliverybox

The DeliveryBox functionality can be used to indicate if the goods are delivered before completing the transaction. If the goods cannot be dispensed the transaction will be aborted.

During the payment flow, the integrator-app needs to deliver the goods and services. The following PaymentDelegate method is called to perform the delivery. 

PaymentDelegate delegate = new PaymentDelegate() {
    ...
    @Override
    public void onDeliverGoodsOrServices(DeliveryBoxCallback deliveryBoxCallback) {
        // Deliver your goods
        // Call the deliveryBoxCallback.proceed(boolean) once you know that your delivery was successful or noet.
        deliveryBoxCallback.proceed(true);
    }
    ...
};
paymentService.payment(terminal, payment, delegate);          
...
