Use iDEAL

Overview

Place an order with catalog products defined in your Control Panel and collect the payment using iDEAL.

Requirements

Shoppers in the Netherlands can purchase using iDEAL. The billing country and the order country code has to be NL.

Supported currencies

  • EUR

Workflow

  1. Use the getIdealIssuerBanks method for retrieving information on the 2Checkout list of banks that support iDEAL payments. More details about this method here.
  2. Shoppers select iDEAL as a payment option in the interface you provide them and select their bank from the list.
  3. Create the order object. Use IDEAL as the type of the PaymentDetails object, and include ReturnURL and CancelURL. The BankCode parameter should be added based on the bank selected by the customer, from the array obtained after calling method getIdealIssuerBanks.
  4. Use the placeOrder method to send the data to 2Checkout.
  5. Once you place the order, 2Checkout logs it into the system. At this point in time, the status of the order is PENDING.
  6. 2Checkout returns an Order object as the output of the placeOrder method. 
  7. Use the PaymentMethod object to create a redirect URL for the shoppers, concatenating the values of the Href and avng8apitoken parameters. Here's an example of the redirect URL:
    https://api.2checkout.com/4.0/scripts/ideal/authorize/?avng8apitoken=f56373d92ed6b153
    
  8. Customers are directed to the iDEAL payment page, where they have to confirm their payment details before finishing the ordering process.
  9. Shoppers are redirected to the RedirectURL from the Order information object. In case the payment fails, shoppers are redirected to the CancelURL. 

Parameters

Parameters Type/Description

Required (string)

 

Session identifier, the output of the Login method. Include sessionID into all your requests. 2Checkout throws an exception if the values are incorrect.  The sessionID expires in 10 minutes.

Order

Required (Object)

 

Object designed to collect all data necessary for an order, including billing, product/subscription plan, and payment details.

To place an order with iDEAL, use IDEAL as the type of the PaymentDetails object and provide the following parameters as part of the PaymentMethod object:

  • ReturnURL - URL to which customers are redirected after successful payment.
  • CancelURL - URL to which customers are redirected after a failed payment attempt.

Single Sign On in cart

Overview

Use the getSingleSignOnInCart method. 2Checkout attaches a unique token to links, designed to identify the returning shoppers and support the automatic extraction of payment data and billing information from the 2Checkout system. For example, you can generate single sign-on in cart links for existing customers logged into your website based on their external or 2Checkout customer IDs.

How does this work?

When accessing the shopping cart using tokenized payment links:

  • 2Checkout prefills automatically customer billing and delivery details associated with their 2Checkout customer accounts (linked based on their unique customer IDs).
  • 2Checkout presents shoppers with an optimized payment area featuring the credit/debit cards used to make previous purchases/transactions in the 2Checkout system. Customers have the option of selecting one of the payment methods depending on available card-on-file data.

Parameters

Parameters Type/Description

sessionID

Required (string)

 

Session identifier, the output of the Login method. Include sessionID into all your requests. 2Checkout throws an exception if the values are incorrect.  The sessionID expires in 10 minutes.

Customer

Required (string)

 

Unique customer identifiers. Can be either the ExternalCustomerReference you control or the system-generated 2CheckoutCustomerReference.

customerType

Required (string)

 

Possible values:

  • ExternalCustomerReference
  • 2CheckoutCustomerReference

url

Required (string)

 

The shopping cart URL. 2Checkout redirects shoppers to this URL.

 

Possible values:

 

Any buy link you generate from the cPanel or using the API. Note: For the time being, payment tokenization does not support Express Payments Checkout or the 2Checkout mobile shopping cart.

validityTime

Optional (int)

 

The time, in seconds, before the single sign-on URL expires. By default, the URL expires after 10 seconds. (optional)

validationIp

Optional (string)

 

The IP address of the shopper, necessary for security purposes. Can be an empty string or a valid IP, or null.

Response

Parameters Type/Description

Single sign-on URL

String

 

The generated string is the tokenized time-limited single sign-on URL pointing to 2Checkout shopping cart.

 

Note: Each SSO link cleans any previous cart sessions. Shoppers using multiple SSO links would purchase only a single product at a time.

 

If shoppers add multiple products to cart via SSO buy links and then use a non-SSO link, they’ll purchase all items using the same order.

When you use single sign-on in cart for customers without card on files in the 2Checkout system, the generated tokenized link prefills the billing information but the purchase process requires that shoppers provide payment information, such as a credit or debit card.

Example: https://store.YourCustomDomain.com/order/checkout.php?PRODS=1112233&logintoken=8b74ac97f8277654563c44da6915b054ba0d21be

 

Important! You can use the value of the logintoken to retrieve customer information by SSO token.
