Direct API Integration
Merchants not using an e-commerce service can integrate the Limepay API directly into their current store configuration. What follows is a series of steps required to ensure complete and functional integration.
Before beginning, you may wish to familiarise yourself with the checkout workflow in the technical diagrams documentation pages.
Get the Limepay checkout embedded on a web store and set up some basic functions.
Wire up the necessary API to ensure customer payments can be received and processed.
Configure the integration to handle inevitable complications from human error or card security checks, including 3D-Secure security challenges.
Test the functionality of the integration.
Further integration options
Once the standard integration has been completed, merchants may wish to consider these features:
- 3D-Secure - enable an extra level of security on transactions.
- Know Your Customer (KYC) - merchants can pre-register customers for KYC checks before they use the checkout.
- Payment authorisation (pre-auth) - Reserve funds on a customer's card before processing the order.
- Capturing payment sources - Capture payment sources to process payments directly.
