Wero is the digital wallet of the European Payments Initiative, backed by European banks. Customers pay from their bank account and approve each payment in the Wero app or their banking app. Payrails processes Wero through Deutsche Bank.

​
How a Wero payment works

Wero is a redirect payment method:
  1. The customer selects Wero at checkout.
  2. Payrails redirects the customer to the Wero page, which shows a QR code.
  3. The customer scans the QR code with the Wero app or their banking app and approves the payment.
  4. Wero sends the customer back to your site, and Payrails receives the final result from the PSP and updates the payment.
Each payment is single-use: the customer approves every payment on its own. Payrails captures Wero payments immediately, so a successful payment is final. To return funds, refund the payment.

Ways to integrate Wero

  • Payrails SDK: the Web SDK shows Wero when your workflow returns it as a payment option.
  • Payrails API: call lookup payment options, then authorize with wero as the paymentMethodCode. The PSP guide lists the fields that PSP requires.
In both cases, confirm the final result through webhook notifications or the execution status.
