Introduction

NetBanking is an alternative payment method in India that offers a convenient way for customers to pay for goods and services. Integrating NetBanking with Payrails allows you to provide a fast, easy-to-use payment option for your customers while leveraging our platform to route the payment to any Payment Service Provider (PSP). This guide will explain the process of integrating NetBanking into your app or website using Payrails.

Pre-requisites

Before you start accepting NetBanking payments with Payrails, there are a few requirements you must meet:

1. Integrate with Payrails using one of our SDKs or our API
2. Configure a new integration account for NetBanking via one of the following Payment Service Providers: dLocal and Pinelabs.
3. Enable NetBanking as a payment option.
4. Make sure you're sending the NetBanking specific meta fields (found under Merchant configurations -> Meta fields on your Payrails dashboard and in the examples below) in your requests.

Ways to integrate NetBanking

Payrails SDK

The simplest way to use NetBanking with Payrails is to use our drop-in in your checkout flow. With this integration type, no additional development work is required to accept payments with NetBanking.

Server-to-server integration

The simplest way to use NetBanking is by completely managing your own client-side implementation, and using Payrails APIs with a server-to-server integration to process payments with NetBanking. With this approach, follow the documentation below to build NetBanking into your applications:

Parse NetBanking from lookup response

With a server-to-server integration, you can call our lookup payment options endpoint to get available payment options and relevant configurations for each payment method. As the example below, you can see netBanking returned as an option of the paymentCompositionOptions. You can use this value later to authorize payments with Payrails as you can see in the next sections.

{
    "name": "lookup",
    "actionId": "0bb6413e-cabb-4074-99e6-9e815c69f25b",
    "executedAt": "2024-05-08T12:33:21.527395295Z",
    "data": {
        "paymentCompositionOptions": [
            {
                "integrationType": "api",
                "paymentMethodCode": "netBanking",
                "description": "NetBanking"
            }
        ]
    },
    "links": {
        "execution": "http://payrails-api.staging.payrails.io/merchant/workflows/payment-acceptance/executions/83c534ac-13b7-43e6-b04b-f3e8b4eb4424",
        "authorize": {
            "method": "POST",
            "href": "http://payrails-api.staging.payrails.io/merchant/workflows/payment-acceptance/executions/83c534ac-13b7-43e6-b04b-f3e8b4eb4424/authorize"
        }
    }
}

Pass NetBanking payment method in request to authorize payment with Payrails

You can then make a request to our authorize a payment endpoint with netBanking as the paymentMethodCode. See an example below:

{
  "executionId": "c0fd1c51-e709-47e5-bfd1-5d1c98f7d990",
  "amount": {
    "value": "1000",
    "currency": "INR"
  },
  "paymentComposition": [{
    "integrationType": "api",
    "paymentMethodCode": "netBanking",
    "amount": {
      "value": "1000",
      "currency": "INR"
    }
  }],
  "meta": {
    "order": {
      "lines": [{
        "id": "UUID",
        "name": "Order Name",
        "quantity": 1,
        "unitPrice": {
          "currency": "INR",
          "value": "1000"
        }
      }]
    }
  },
  "returnInfo": {
    "success": "https://mysuccessurl.com",
    "error": "https://myerrorurl.com"
  }
}
