Before you begin

Complete these steps before you send your first TWINT payment through Checkout.com:

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

Request fields for Checkout.com

TWINT needs no method-specific fields beyond the standard authorize fields, including the returnInfo URLs for the redirect. Required fields must be present for the payment to succeed. Payrails sends Optional fields to the PSP when you include them.

Field	Status	Description
`meta.customer.name`, `meta.customer.lastName`	Optional	Sent to Checkout.com as the customer name.
`meta.customer.email`	Optional	Sent to Checkout.com as the customer email.
`meta.customer.phone.countryCode`, `meta.customer.phone.number`	Optional	Sent to Checkout.com as the customer phone.
`meta.customer.country.code`	Optional	Sent to Checkout.com as the customer country.

Authorize a TWINT payment

Call authorize a payment with twint as the paymentMethodCode. The response includes the redirect for the customer.

Authorize request

{
  "amount": {
    "value": "25.00",
    "currency": "CHF"
  },
  "paymentComposition": [
    {
      "integrationType": "api",
      "paymentMethodCode": "twint",
      "amount": {
        "value": "25.00",
        "currency": "CHF"
      }
    }
  ],
  "meta": {
    "customer": {
      "email": "noah.meier@example.com",
      "name": "Noah",
      "lastName": "Meier"
    }
  },
  "returnInfo": {
    "success": "https://example.com/success",
    "error": "https://example.com/error"
  }
}

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

How Checkout.com handles TWINT

Payrails creates the TWINT payment through the Checkout.com Payment Setup API. Checkout.com needs no payment token for TWINT.
Payrails rejects a partial capture request for TWINT, and sends every TWINT capture to Checkout.com as a final capture.
If Checkout.com doesn’t return a redirect for a pending TWINT payment, Payrails fails the payment, because the customer can’t complete it.
Each TWINT payment is a new customer-initiated payment.
