Tokenization

Learn how you can integrate with Plural Token APIs to start accepting payments on your website without card details.

Plural’s Token Management allows you to securely process payments by using network-issued tokens instead of storing sensitive card details. In compliance with COFT regulations, you cannot save customer card information directly. Instead, payment networks provision tokens against a customer’s card with their consent.

By integrating Plural’s APIs, you can store and manage these tokens within the customer vault, enabling seamless and secure transactions. These tokens can be used for future payments, simplifying the checkout experience while enhancing security and reducing risks for fraud. Token Management ensures compliance with industry standards, allowing you to offer a frictionless digital payment process without handling sensitive card data.

How Tokens Are Stored in the System

Token

A Token is a non-sensitive replacement for the actual Primary Account Number (PAN) of a payment card. Its primary role is to store card information securely and be used for future transactions without exposing sensitive data. When a user saves a card on a Plural platform, the system generates a Token ID. This ID can then be used for transactions, subscriptions, or recurring payments, without the need to store or transmit the actual card number.

Service provider token

A Service Provider Token is a specific token that is created and managed by an external entity - either a card network (e.g., Visa, Mastercard) or a card issuer (e.g., a bank). This token is essentially a representation of the card created by the third-party service provider to replace the actual PAN. The Service Provider Token is linked to the Token ID within the platform, but it reflects the external tokenization source used for the token creation.

Note

  • Ensure you store your Client ID and Secret in your Backend securely.
  • Integrate our APIs on your backend system.
  • We strictly recommend not to call our APIs from the frontend.

1. [Prerequisite] Generate Token

🚧

Watch Out

  • To Integrate with Plural seamless checkout flow you must have a PCI compliance certificate.

Integrate our Generate Token API in your backend servers to generate the access token. Use the token generated to authenticate Plural APIs.

Below are the sample requests and response for the Generate Token API.

Important

  • To update the customer information, use our Updated Customer API.
  • If both customer_id and at least one of mobile_number or merchant_customer_reference are provided, we first validate the customer_id in our database. If it exists, we return the same customer_id without creating a new one.

Refer to our Create Order API documentation to learn more.

4. Create Payment

With Plural you can process a payment for the below.

4.1. Save Card For First Time User

To create a save card payment for first time user, use our Create Payment API, use the order_id returned in the response of a Create Order API to link the payment against an order.

5. Handle Payment

In create payment API response we return a challenge_url, use this challenge url to navigate your customers to the checkout page to accept payment.

📘

Note:

  • On successful payment we send the webhook event ORDER_AUTHORIZED and the status of the payment is updated to authorized.
  • You can capture or cancel an order only when the order status is authorized.

5.1 Store Payment Details on Your Server

On a successful and failed payment we return the following fields to the return url.

  • We recommend you to store the payment details on your server.
  • You must validate the authenticity of the payment details returned. You can authenticate by verifying the signature.
{
  "order_id": "v1-4405071524-aa-qlAtAf",
  "status": "AUTHORIZED",
  "signature": "ba7816bf8f01cfea414140de5dae2223b00361a396177a9cb410ff61f20015ad"
}
{
  "order_id": "v1-4405071524-aa-qlAtAf",
  "status": "AUTHORIZED",
  "error_code": "USER_AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRED",
  "error_message": "Consumer Authentication Required",
  "signature": "ba7816bf8f01cfea414140de5dae2223b00361a396177a9cb410ff61f20015ad"
}

5.2 Verify Payment Signature

Ensure you follow this as a mandatory step to verify the authenticity of the details returned to the checkout form for successful payments.

Follow the below steps to verify the signature.

  1. Create a signature on your server using the following parameters using the SHA256 algorithm.
    1. order_id: Unique Identifier generated for an order request on Plural database.
    2. payment_status: Payment status.
    3. error_code: Short code for the error returned.
    4. error_message: Corresponding error message for the code.
    5. secret_key: The Onboarding team has provided you with this information as part of the onboarding process.

Use the below sample code to construct HashMap signature using the SHA256 algorithm.

import java.io.UnsupportedEncodingException;
import java.security.InvalidKeyException;
import java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException;
import javax.crypto.Mac;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
 
public class hash {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Test the GenerateHash method
        String input = "<string>";
        String secretKey = "<secret_key>";  // Example key in hex
 
        String hash = GenerateHash(input, secretKey);
        System.out.println("Generated Hash: " + hash);
    }
    public static String GenerateHash(String input, String strSecretKey) {
        String strHash = "";
        try {
            if (!isValidString(input) || !isValidString(strSecretKey)) {
                return strHash;
            }
            byte[] convertedHashKey = new byte[strSecretKey.length() / 2];
 
            for (int i = 0; i < strSecretKey.length() / 2; i++) {
                convertedHashKey[i] =
                        (byte)Integer.parseInt(strSecretKey.substring(i * 2, (i*2)+2),16); //hexNumber radix
            }
            strHash = hmacDigest(input.toString(), convertedHashKey,
                    "HmacSHA256");
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            strHash = "";
        }
        return strHash.toUpperCase();
    }
    private static String hmacDigest(String msg, byte[] keyString, String algo) {
        String digest = null;
        try {
            SecretKeySpec key = new SecretKeySpec(keyString, algo);
            Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(algo);
            mac.init(key);
            byte[] bytes = mac.doFinal(msg.getBytes("UTF-8"));
            StringBuffer hash = new StringBuffer();
            for (int i = 0; i < bytes.length; i++) {
                String hex = Integer.toHexString(0xFF & bytes[i]);
                if (hex.length() == 1) {
                    hash.append('0');
                }
                hash.append(hex);
            }
            digest = hash.toString();
        } catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
// logger.error("Exception occured in hashing the pine payment gateway request"+e);
        } catch (InvalidKeyException e) {
// logger.error("Exception occured in hashing the pine payment gateway request"+e);
        } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {
// logger.error("Exception occured in hashing the pine payment gateway request"+e);
        }
        return digest;
    }
    public static boolean isValidString(String str){
        if(str != null && !"".equals(str.trim())){
            return true;
        }
        return false;
    }
}

📘

Note:

To create a request string, format the key-value pairs of data returned to the return URL. The pairs are separated by & and arranged in ascending order based on a lexicographical comparison of the keys.

Shown below is a example to create a request string.

"key1=value1&key2=value2", ["order_id=random_order_id&status=AUTHORIZED"]
"key1=value1&key2=value2&key3=value3&key4=value4", ["error_code=USER_AUTHENTICATION_FAILED&error_message=Consumer Authentication required&order_id=<order_id>&status=FAILED"]
  1. If the signature generated on your server matches the Plural signature returned in the return URL, it confirms that the payment details are from Plural.
  2. Capture the status returned on your database. Once the payment status is AUTHORIZED you can either capture or cancel an order.

📘

Important:

  • With pre-authorization set to true, you can capture or cancel a payment for an order.

6. Capture Order

Use this API to capture the payment against an order. On successful capture of an order the order status is updated as processed.

Shown below are the sample requests and sample response for a Capture Order API.
