Customer redirection

After receiving and processing your purchase request, the payment platform sends you the callback with the data for redirecting the customer to the provider service.

To redirect the customer, use the values of the following parameters in the redirect_data object:

  • url—the URL to redirect the customer to
  • body—the data to send in the request body
  • method—the HTTP method for retrieving the website page (for example, POST or GET)
  • encrypted—this is the service parameter. Ignore it.

Here is an example of the callback snippet with the data to redirect the customer.

"redirect_data": {
    "method": "GET",
    "body": [],
    "encrypted": [],
    "url": "https://example.com/redirect"
}

Callback

In the PhonePe payment method, the payment platform returns the purchase result in a callback. For the information about the callback structure, see Callbacks in Gate.

The following is an example of a callback body with the information about a successfully completed purchase.
