Configuring Clearpay

Learn how to configure Clearpay for DigitalRiver.js with Elements.

If you're using DigitalRiver.js with Elements, you can create a Clearpay payment method for your app or website in four easy steps:

• Step 1: Build a Clearpay Source Request and Source Details object

• Step 2: Create a Clearpay source using DigitalRiver.js

• Step 3: Authorize the Clearpay source

• Step 4: Use the authorized source

Step 1: Build a Clearpay Source Request and Source Details objects

Build the Clearpay Source Request and Source Details objects.

Clearpay Source Request object

The Clearpay Source Request object requires the following fields.

Field	Value
type	clearPay
sessionId	The payment session identifier.
owner	An Owner object.
clearPay	A Clearpay Source Details object.

Clearpay Source Details object

The Clearpay Source Details object requires the following fields.

{
  "returnUrl":"https://js-test.digitalriver.com/v1/1.20220329.1453/components/redirect-receiver/redirect-receiver.html?controllerId=controller-76ef3046-888c-4073-90ad-1b5d61a8af08&componentId=redirect-receiver-1757f835-c21b-4f4e-b208-92adc5c30573&action=return",
  "cancelUrl":"https://js-test.digitalriver.com/v1/1.20220329.1453/components/redirect-receiver/redirect-receiver.html?controllerId=controller-76ef3046-888c-4073-90ad-1b5d61a8af08&componentId=redirect-receiver-1757f835-c21b-4f4e-b208-92adc5c30573&action=cancel",
  "shipping":{
    "address":{
      "line1":"10380 Bren Rd W",
      "line2":"Suite 180",
      "city":"Minnetonka",
      "state":"MN",
      "postalCode":"55344",
      "country":"US"
    },
    "email":"[email protected]",
    "phoneNumber":"9525551212",
    "recipient":"Jane Doe"
  }
}

Field	Required/Optional	Description
cancelUrl	Required	If you choose to use the full redirect flow, this is where you will redirect your customer to after cancelling within the Clearpay experience.
returnUrl	Required	If you choose to use the full redirect flow, this is where you will redirect your customer to after authorizing within the Clearpay experience.
shipping	Optional	if the order contains a physical product that requires a shipping address, include it here.JSON

Step 2: Create a Clearpay source using DigitalRiver.js

Use the DigitalRiver.js library to create and mount elements to the HTML container.

The address object must contain postal code and state/province data that adheres to a standardized format 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.

var sourceData = {
  "type":"clearPay",
  "sessionId":"ea03bf6f-84ef-4993-b1e7-b7d5ecf71d1f",
  "owner":{
    "firstName":"Jane",
    "lastName":"Doe",
    "email":"[email protected]",
    "phoneNumber":"9525551212",
    "address":{
      "line1":"10380 Bren Rd W",
      "line2":"Suite 180",
      "city":"Minnetonka",
      "state":"MN",
      "postalCode":"55344",
      "country":"US"
    }
  },
  "clearPay":{
    "returnUrl":"https://js-test.digitalriver.com/v1/1.20220329.1453/components/redirect-receiver/redirect-receiver.html?controllerId=controller-76ef3046-888c-4073-90ad-1b5d61a8af08&componentId=redirect-receiver-1757f835-c21b-4f4e-b208-92adc5c30573&action=return",
    "cancelUrl":"https://js-test.digitalriver.com/v1/1.20220329.1453/components/redirect-receiver/redirect-receiver.html?controllerId=controller-76ef3046-888c-4073-90ad-1b5d61a8af08&componentId=redirect-receiver-1757f835-c21b-4f4e-b208-92adc5c30573&action=cancel",
    "shipping":{
      "address":{
        "line1":"10380 Bren Rd W",
        "line2":"Suite 180",
        "city":"Minnetonka",
        "state":"MN",
        "country":"US",
        "postalCode":"55344"
      },
      "email":"[email protected]",
      "recipient":"Jane Doe",
      "phoneNumber":"9525551212"
    }
  }
}
 
 
digitalriver.createSource(sourceData).then(function(result) {
    if(result.error) {
        //handle error message
        var errorMessage = result.error.errors[0].message;
    } else {
        //send the source to the back end for processing
        var source = result.source;
    }
});

Step 3: Authorize the Clearpay source

When you create a Clearpay 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 Clearpay authorization

Use the redirectUrl parameter in your createSource response to redirect your customer to the payment provider for authorization.

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 Clearpay Return URL parameter you specified when you created the source.

Once authorized, the source state will change to chargeable.

    "accountToken":"33904584300000000000000600300905"
  }
}

Step 4: Use the authorized source

Once authorized, you can use the source by attaching it to a cart.

POST /v1/shoppers/me/carts/active/apply-payment-method

{
  "paymentMethod": {
    "sourceId": "f1e89f7a-4857-4e0a-9c31-bdb70401fea0"
  }
}
