# Configuring Bancontact If you're using[ DigitalRiver.js with Elements](/commerce-api/payments/payments-solutions/digitalriver.js.md), you can create a [Bancontact](/commerce-api/payments/supported-payment-methods/bancontact.md) payment method for your app or website in four easy steps: * [Step 1: Build a Bancontact Source Request object](#step-1-build-a-bancontact-source-request-and-details-object) * [Step 2: Create a Bancontact source using DigitalRiver.js](#step-2-create-a-bancontact-source-using-digitalriver.js) * [Step 3: Authorize the Bancontact source](#step-3-authorize-the-bancontact-source) * [Step 4: Use the authorized source](#step-4-use-the-authorized-source) ## Step 1: Build a Bancontact Source Request and Details object Build the Bancontact Source Request and Details objects. ### Bancontact Source Request object The Bancontact Source Request object requires the following fields. | Field | Value | | ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | `type` | `bancontact` | | `sessionId` | The payment session identifier. | | `owner` | An [Owner object](/commerce-api/payments/payments-solutions/digitalriver.js/payment-methods/common-payment-objects.md#owner-object). | | `bancontact` | A [Bancontact Source Details object](#bancontact-source-details-object). | ### Bancontact Source Details object The Bancontact Source Details object requires the following fields. ```javascript { "returnUrl": "https://example.com" } ``` | Field | Required/Optional | Description | | ----------- | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `returnUrl` | Required | If you choose to use the full redirect flow, this is where you will redirect your customer to after authorizing or canceling within the Bancontact experience. | ## Step 2: Create a Bancontact source using DigitalRiver.js Use the DigitalRiver.js library to create and mount elements to the HTML container. {% hint style="info" %} The `address` object must contain postal code and state/province data that [adheres to a standardized format](/commerce-api/shopper-apis/cart/creating-or-updating-a-cart/providing-address-information.md) using the `state` attribute. Note that the `state` attribute listed below corresponds to the `countrySubdivision` attribute used when providing address information. The payment session manages the correct field name on the backend. {% endhint %} ```javascript let bancontactSourceData = { "sessionId": "9f70082c-48ad-4fe2-a280-8e6ef2601076", "type": "bancontact", "owner": { firstName: "Sabri", lastName: "Odink", email: "sodink@acme.com", phoneNumber: "0481 40 39297", address: { line1: "Rue du Commerce 335", line2: "", city: "Wondelgem", state: "East Flanders", postalCode: "9032", country: "BE" } }, "bancontact": { "returnUrl": "https://example.com?action=paymentSuccess" } } digitalriver.createSource(bancontactSourceData).then(function(result) { if (result.error) { //handle errors as something went wrong } else { var source = result.source; //do something with the created source } }); ``` ### Bancontact source example ```javascript { "clientId": "gc", "channelId": "drdod15", "liveMode": false, "sessionId": "9f70082c-48ad-4fe2-a280-8e6ef2601076", "id": "bddccfc7-4fa8-401b-b661-421cd5047792", "clientSecret": "bddccfc7-4fa8-401b-b661-421cd5047792_bdddssccfc7-4fa8-401b-b661-421cd5047792", "type": "bancontact", "reusable": false, "owner": { "firstName": "Sabri", "lastName": "Odink", "email": "sodink@acme.com"", "phoneNumber": "0481 40 39297", "address": { "line1": "Rue du Commerce 335", "city": "Wondelgem", "state": "East Flanders", "country": "BE", "postalCode": "9032" } }, "amount": "778.39", "currency": "EUR", "state": "pending_redirect", "creationIp": "209.87.178.4", "createdTime": "2019-05-22T01:48:42.168Z", "updatedTime": "2019-05-22T01:48:42.168Z", "flow": "redirect", "redirect": { "redirectUrl": "https://api.digitalriver.com:443/payments/redirects/4e478578-843a-48a5-beef-66c0dae99f5d?apiKey=pk_test_6cb0fe9ce3124093a9ad906f6c589e2d", "returnUrl": "https://example.com?action=paymentSuccess" }, "bancontact": {} } ``` ## Step 3: Authorize the Bancontact source When you create a Bancontact source, the customer is required to authorize the charge through their payment provider. You can accomplish this by redirecting the customer to their payment provider. ### Redirecting the customer for Bancontact authorization Use the `redirectUrl` parameter in your `createSource` response to redirect your customer to the payment provider for authorization. ```javascript window.location.href = sourceResponse.redirect.redirectUrl; ``` The payment provider will present the customer with the transaction details, and the customer can authorize or cancel the transaction. A successful authorization redirects the customer to the Bancontact Return URL parameter you specified when you created the source. Once authorized, the source state will change to `chargeable`. ```javascript { "clientId": "gc", "channelId": "drdod15", "liveMode": false, "id": "bdcf5832-fc2c-4c79-92e0-85b261s18ae0", "clientSecret": "bdcf5832-fc2c-4c79-92e0-85b261s18ae0_adcf5832-fc2c-4c79-92e0-85b261s18ae0", "type": "bancontact", "reusable": false, "owner": { "firstName": "Sabri", "lastName": "Odink", "email": "sodink@acme.com"", "phoneNumber": "0481 40 39297", "address": { "line1": "Rue du Commerce 335", "city": "Wondelgem", "state": "East Flanders", "country": "BE", "postalCode": "9032" } }, "amount": "100.00", "currency": "KRW", "state": "chargeable", "creationIp": "209.87.178.4", "createdTime": "2019-05-22T02:40:53.631Z", "updatedTime": "2019-05-22T02:40:53.631Z", "flow": "redirect", "redirect": { "redirectUrl": "https://api.digitalriver.com:443/payments/redirects/06e428cf-e23e-4ee9-b64f-ce17de062fd1?apiKey=pk_test_6cb0fe9ce312d093a9ad906f6c589e2d", "returnUrl": "https://example.com" }, "bancontact": {} } ``` ## Step 4: Use the authorized source Once authorized, you can use the source by [attaching it to a cart](/commerce-api/payments/sources.md#attaching-a-payment-method-to-an-order-or-cart). {% tabs %} {% tab title="POST /v1/shoppers/me/carts/active/apply-payment-method" %} ```javascript { "paymentMethod": { "sourceId": "e7ba0595-059c-460c-bad8-2812123b9313" } } ``` {% endtab %} {% endtabs %} ## Testing Bancontact See [Testing redirect payment methods](/commerce-api/payments/testing-scenarios.md#testing-redirect-payment-methods) for testing instructions. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
