UPI Intent S2S Integration

The following steps allow you to integrate the server-to-server UPI intent:

1. Initiate payment
2. Invoke UPI Intent on customer’s device
3. Check UPI transaction status
4. PayU sends Server-to-Server callback response

👍

Before you begin:

Register for a account with PayU before you start integration. For more information, refer to Register for a Merchant Account.

Intent Flow Diagram

The following diagram depicts the UPI intent flow from server to server:

Step 1: Initiate payment

Environment

The _payment API needs to be called with all the required parameters. For the complete list of parameters, refer to UPI Collection - S2S.

This needs to be a server-to-server cURL request. This API is used for both Cards and UPI for generating a new transaction.

If specific intent has to be opened instead of Generic Intent, then the bankcode values will change accordingly:

• For Generic Intent, bankcode = INTENT

📘

Notes:

• If you are using this for their application, then the Generic Intent, and Specific Intent, can be invoked.
• If you are using this for your Mobile Web, then only Generic Intent can be invoked. To invoke App specific intents on the mobile web, the libraries have to be added separately. PayU offers the same for GPay Intent through the Mobile web. Refer to the GPay Seamless Integration Document for the same.
• User VPA is not required for this flow.

Request parameters

For the complete list of parameters, refer to UPI Collection - S2S.

📘

Support queries:

For any issues or queries related to UPI integration, send an email to [email protected].

Collect the response in the UPI Collection - S2S. under API Reference. The response for the S2S payment request is not similar to Merchant Hosted or PayU Hosted Checkout. For description of response parameters, refer to [Additional Info for Payment APIs](ref: addl_info-payment-apis#response-for-initial-server-to-server-request).

Step 2: Invoke UPI Intent on customer’s device

You need to invoke intent in the customer’s mobile device using the merchant VPA URL. Make sure that only this merchant VPA is embedded in the intent call since this helps to track the status of the transaction.

Open the UPI Intent as per the NPCI Guidelines. Merchants can also open any specific app instead of making the Generic Intent call. For example, Google Pay, PhonePe, etc. This URL can then be fired using an Intent or a hyperlink which would open an Intent tray with a list of available supporting apps on the user’s mobile device. The following sample UPI Deep Link URL and the format used for creating the URL:

Sample URL (with values from the above sample JSON):

upi://pay?pa=payu@axisbank&pn=SMSPLUS&tr=8312916361&am=10.17

Format for UPI Deep Linking URL (as per NPCI guidelines):

"upi://pay?pa=" + merchantVpa + "&pn=" + merchantName + "&tr=" + referenceId + "&am=" + amount 

Where the description of the parameters used in the URL is as described in the following table:

Step 3: Check UPI transaction status

Check the UPI transaction status using the Verify Payment API (verify_payment) API. For more information, refer to Verify Payment API.

Step 4: PayU sends Server-to-Server callback response

PayU can also send a server-to-server callback response whenever the transaction status gets updated.

Implementation

The server-to-server response would be sent by PayU on a pre-set URL, which has to be provided by you. PayU will configure it at your back end. This response would be sent in key/value pair separated by the ampersand (&) character. In case any parameter is not used, we would send it back to you with an empty string. The sample response is similar to the following:

unmappedstatus=success&phone=9999999999&txnid=FCDA1R100870163781&hash=84e3 35094bbcb2ddaa0f9a488eb338e143b273765d89c9dfa502402562d0b6f3c7935e28194ca92f7 380be7c84c3695415b106dcf52cb016a15fcf6adc98d724&status=success&curl=https://www. abc.in/payment/handlepayuresposne&firstname=NA&card_no=519619XXXXXX5049&furl= https://www.abc.in/payment/handlepayuresposne&productinfo=2&mode=DC&amount=800. 00&field4=6807112311042810&field3=6807112311042810&field2=838264&field9=SUCC ESS&email=NA&mihpayid=175477248&surl=https://www.ABC.in/payment/handlepayuresp osne&card_hash=9e88cb0573d4a826b61d808c0a870ed4a990682459b0ec9e95ea421e8e47b e8c&field1=42812

The parameter list format is similar to the following:

mihpayid,mode,status,key,txnid,amount,productinfo,firstname,lastname,address1,address2,city,state,country,zipcode,email,phone,udf1,udf2,udf3,udf4,udf5,udf6,udf7,udf8,udf9,udf10,card_token,card_no,field0,field1,field2,field3,field4,field5,field6,field7,field8,field9,offer,discou nt,offer_availed,unmappedstatus,hash,bank_ref_no,surl,curl,furl,card_hash
