Before you begin

Complete these steps before you send your first iDEAL payment through Nuvei:

Set up a Nuvei integration in your workspace. Follow the Nuvei integration setup guide if you don’t have one yet.
Ask Nuvei to enable iDEAL on your Nuvei merchant account.
In the Payrails Portal, go to Settings → Integrations, open your Nuvei integration, select iDEAL under Payment methods, and save.
Add iDEAL as a payment option in your workflow.

Request fields for Nuvei

Send these fields in the authorize request, in addition to the standard authorize fields. Required fields must be present for the payment to succeed. Payrails sends Optional fields to the PSP when you include them.

`meta.customer.country.code`	Required	Must be `NL`. Payrails rejects iDEAL requests to Nuvei with any other country code.

`meta.customer.name`, `meta.customer.lastName`	Optional	Sent to Nuvei as the billing name.
`meta.order.billingAddress`	Optional	Overrides the customer’s name, email, country and address in the Nuvei billing address.

      "amount": {

  ],
  "meta": {
    "customer": {
      "email": "sanne.devries@example.com",
      "name": "Sanne",
      "lastName": "de Vries",
      "country": {
        "code": "NL"
      }
    },
    "clientContext": {
      "ipAddress": "203.0.113.10"
    }
  },
  "returnInfo": {
    "success": "https://example.com/success",
    "error": "https://example.com/error"
  }
}

After the customer confirms the payment, the bank returns them to your success or error URL. Confirm the result through webhook notifications or the execution status before you fulfill the order.

How Nuvei handles iDEAL

Payrails sends iDEAL to Nuvei only for customers in the Netherlands. A missing meta.customer.country.code returns an error, and any value other than NL returns an error.
