Implementation of the iframe and configuration of the URL passed to the src attribute
Iframe tag & customField14
An iframe is an HTML tag that allows embedding an HTML page within another.
To do this, you need to use the <iframe> tag and specify the URL of the page you want to display in the src attribute. The URL of the payment page must include the following value: customField14=iframe.

Creation of 'Return' pages
When the cardholder submits the payment form, a request is sent to the Axepta server.
If the payment go to this end (approved or not), a response is sent to the urls.return address.
If the cardholder cancel the payment processing a response is sent to the urls.cancel address.
The goal is to display a success or failure page instead of the iFrame depending on the payment result.
Note: the server returns an HTTP response with the POST method. Therefore, a route must be created on the merchant site's server to handle this response. |
Remember: if you receive a return callback, you still need to check if the payment have been approved or not
Returns or cancel urls are detailled in 'Callback and Payment Notification Management' documentation.
The merchant creates these pages which will be displayed during the cardholder's redirection.
Each will run a script that will redirect the user to the payment success or error page.
The setup of this script is described in the following section.
Setting up redirection in JavaScript
Integration of the postMessage method in redirect-success and redirect-failure
The postMessage solution "allows secure cross-domain communication."
The goal is to "communicate" with the parent page. This communication will take place through a MessageEvent.

);
}
sendMessage();

Integration of the (Event Listener) in the payment page
In the page that contains the iframe, we will set up an event listener. It will be responsible for executing a function when it receives an event of type message.

<BODY>
<SCRIPT>
// on the current page
// we place a listener with the addEventListener method
window.addEventListener(
// event type to listen to
"message",
// callback function that will be executed
// when an event of type "message" will be emitted
(event) => {
// If the origin is not the same as the one placed in the message
// we stop the execution of the function
if (event.origin !== "https://mon-site.com") return;
// we redirect the user to the desired page
}
);
window.location.href = "https://mon-site.com/payment-success";
}
);
