Native OTP Payments

In a conventional card payment journey, customers are redirected to the bank page to collect OTP. With this value addition, you can enhance their experience by collecting OTP at your page and submit it to Cashfree using our Authentication APIs This would eventually eliminate the need for redirecting to bank page thereby reducing payment failures that happen due to redirection drop offs, or slow internet speeds.

For seamless OTP payments, follow these steps -

1. While calling order pay API, pass the channel object for card payments as post. Here's an example request and response for the same.

curl --request POST \
  --url https://sandbox.cashfree.com/pg/orders/sessions \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-version: 2022-09-01' \
  --data '{
	"payment_session_id": "session_Cke8Y9LKs2CQP9KuTzsomExG1x5CKBLo-rWo8-YMBWgqgoA9On5YMzmCEZd_umDYxU_ZNXigfc9JPyJ-TgWxz9Om6keBxG2V8e8MynNCv8QT",
	"payment_method":{
		"card":		{
			"channel":"post",				 
			"card_cvv": "123",
			"card_holder_name": "rohit",
			"card_number":"4706131211212123",
			"card_expiry_mm": "03",
			"card_expiry_yy": "27"
		}
	}
}'

{
	"action": "post",
	"cf_payment_id": 14909602643,
	"channel": "post",
	"data": {
		"url": "https://sandbox.cashfree.com/pg/orders/pay/authenticate/14909602643",
		"payload": null,
		"content_type": "application/json",
		"method": "post"
	},
	"payment_amount": 1.10,
	"payment_method": "card"
}

2. If the native OTP flow is enabled for the account, response will return action as 'post' and an authentication API in url which you need to call to submit the OTP.

🚧

Not all banks or bins support seamless OTP payments. It is possible that this request fall back to a regular response where you will have to redirect the user to the ACS page. In that case, action parameter in the response would have the value link and you'll need to redirect to bank's page which is provided in url. Make sure to handle this case as well.

3. Collect the OTP from your page and submit it to cashfree using Authentication API - Submit or Resend OTP.
