API (VR pay secure Gateway)

When do I use VR pay secure Gateway?

A VR pay secure Gateway is generated for integration into an application (e.g. web shop software).
In general it is an invoice with an amount, currency and the customer data in background.

The status of a Gateway can be tracked using the Webhooks and the API.


Payment Types

We support different types of payments:

  • One-off payments:
    Immediate capture of a specific amount.
  • Recurring payments:
    A subscription is handled by VR Payment.
  • Reservation:
    A specific amount gets blocked on the credit card. A capture is possible within 7 days.

For a reservation, you need to pass "reservation=1".

For recurring payments, you can pass different parameters:

  • subscriptionState=1 (activate subscription for the VR pay secure Gateway)
  • subscriptionInterval=P1M (e.g. for one month of payment interval)
  • subscriptionPeriod=P1M (e.g. for one month of subscription period, subscriptions will be automatically renewed)
  • subscriptionCancellationInterval=P1M (e.g. notice period of a subscription)

Integration types

VR pay secure Gateway can be implemented in two ways:

  • Redirect
  • Modal window

Usage

First, you need to place the order using our /Gateway endpoint.
See /Gateway for more information about the request.

You will get a link back to which you can redirect your customer for the checkout procedure.
In case you would like to implement a modal window, use this link for the data-href attribute. More information can be found in the next section.


Modal window

Necessary scripts you need to include in the head section of your html file:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://media.vr-pay-secure.de/modal/v1/gateway.min.js"></script>

To open the generated gateway link in modal window, use the following code example.

<a class="vr-pay-secure-modal-window" href="#"
    data-href="https://example.vr-pay-secure.de/?payment=GATEWAY-HASH">
    Open modal window
</a>
<script type="text/javascript">
    jQuery(".vr-pay-secure-modal-window").vrpaysecureModal();
</script>
  • More information about modal window can be found on Modal window
