This page serves as a supplementary guide for integrating Real-Time Recurring Credit Card transaction payment into the redirect payment flow and is to be read in conjunction with the PayU Redirect integration documentation.
Overview
PayU Real-Time Recurring (RTR) transaction processing is a card processing solution where the merchant is allowed to deduct specified amounts from a card holder's account as agreed between card holder and merchant with or without the card holder initiating the actual transaction. Real-Time Recurring (RTR) Credit Card transaction solution is available on the PayU payment system via both the API and responsive channel through tokenised redirect integration. Please consult with PayU Sales for more information.
Real-Time recurring transactions are set-up by providing full card data (Card holder provide during agreement process on PayU hosted payment page) for transaction authorisation initially and on subsequent transactions only the card number or tokenised version is required to authorise payment to the merchant. To remove PCI risk to merchants PayU offers RTR as a tokenised payment solution. The card details will be encrypted by PayU and stored in a token which should be stored against a merchant user profile for future recurring transactions. Future transactions can happen via administrative process(subscriptions) or redirect on-line transactions where card holder launch payment process.
Merchant Requirement
Merchant will need to have the following in place before attempting Real-Time Recurring integration.
- User profile system with secure login process for merchant users.
- Capabilities to store one or more PayU created payment tokens against user profiles.
- Back-end processing capability to process recurring subscription transactions. (Optional and only required for subscription type transactions)
Additional considerations:
Redirect Integration: No sensitive card holder data will be exposed to the merchant, all card capturing happens at PayU. The merchant can still process back-end transactions via Enterprise API by making use of the tokens.
