Payment Method Configuration


You can now select the different payment methods to activate on your store.

A "Payment Configuration" block allows you to configure the display of payment methods on the checkout page as follows:


All payment methods integrated into the library are presented here. It is up to the merchant to select the payment methods they have subscribed to. The activation key no longer allows defining the payment methods.


Payment Organization:

This refers to the display of payments that has been decided on the checkout page.

  • Grouped: Payment blocks appear. It is possible to configure payments for redirection and iframe.

  • HPP (Hosted Payment Page): Only redirection is possible with all payment methods grouped into a single button. A complete block is displayed, with no differentiation between cards and other payment methods.


Display Method:

  • Redirection: During the payment phase, the user is redirected to a page based on the selected payment method.

  • Iframe: During the payment phase, the form is displayed at the bottom of the checkout page based on the selected payment method.



Capture Method


This option allows you to choose the payment capture method:

  • Automatic (J) => The capture will be automatically processed at midnight.
  • Deferred (J+x) => You can choose the delay before the capture (delay in hours: integer between 1 and 696. Example for 2 days: enter 48)
  • Manual Capture => Manual capture is performed manually by the merchant through a configuration in the back-office.


Activation of Automatic Capture

When automatic capture is selected, payment flows are automatically captured at midnight.


Activation of Deferred Capture:

Deferred capture is configured with a specified number of hours before the capture is executed. The maximum allowed delay is 696 hours (29 days).

Notice : No action is required by the merchant to perform the capture. It is confirmed by a return flow (IPN).



Activation of Manual Capture:

In the merchant configuration menu, scroll down to the "Capture" field and select "Manual Capture."


Warning : Without action from the merchant, the transaction will not be processed by the bank. Capturing a transaction beyond the 7th day results in the loss of the 3DSecure guarantee. Beyond the 29th day, the authorization granted by the issuer will no longer be valid. It is therefore advisable to capture transactions before these deadlines.


Manually capture transactions

To manually capture a payment, go to the transaction list and click on the capture icon in the action column.
