Configuring Google Pay

Learn how to configure Google Pay for DigitalRiver.js with Elements.

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

• Step 1: Create a Google Pay source using DigitalRiver.js

• Step 2: Use the authorized source

Step 1: Create a Google Pay source using Digital River.js

To create a Google Pay payment source, follow the instructions for DigitalRiver.js reference guide.

Create a Google Pay element

After setting up your library per the DigitalRiver.js reference guide, create a Google Pay element with any customizations you would like to apply.

var paymentRequestData = digitalriver.paymentRequest({
        country: "US",
        currency: "USD",
        total: {
            label: "Order Total",
            amount: 100
        },
        displayItems: lineItems,
        shippingOptions: shippingOptions,
        style: {
            buttonType: "plain",
            buttonColor: "dark",
            buttonLanguage: "en"
        },
        "sessionId": "9f180964-9da4-43ac-b8e0-ae54d832b03c"
    });
   
   
var googlepay = digitalriver.createElement('googlepay', paymentRequestData);

Configure the Google Pay element to handle events

The Google Pay element will surface events, which will give you more information to facilitate what is happening within the Google Pay experience.

These events include:

Event	Triggered When
ready	The created element is loaded and ready to accept an update request.
click	A shopper clicked the element's button.
cancel	The customer has canceled the experience.
shippingoptionchange	The customer has chosen a different shipping option than was previously selected. You should use this data to re-price your order totals (if applicable).
shippingaddresschange	The customer has chosen a different address than was previously selected. You should use this data to re-price your order totals (if applicable).
source	The customer has authorized the payment and a source, and DigitalRiver.js returned associated data.

Note: To use Google Pay, you must listen to, at minimum, the Source event.

googlepay.on('source', function(event) {
    var source = result.source;
  
    //pass the source to your back end for further processing. 
 
 
    //once verified that the source is created successfully, complete the Google Pay session by answering with a success message
    event.complete('success');
});
 
 
googlepay.on('shippingaddresschange', function(event) {
    var shippingAddress = event.shippingAddress;
   
   
    //create a Payment Request Details Update Object
    var newDetails = createPaymentRequestDetailsUpdateObject();
       
    event.updateWith(newDetails);
});

The Shipping Address Changed and Shipping Method Changed events require a response of updated details to present to the Shopper. This system expects the response to be in the format of a Payment Request Details Update object.

Place the elements on the page

The following example shows how to place the elements on the page. For more information on placing elements on a page, see Google Pay example.

if (googlepay.canMakePayment()) {
    googlepay.mount("googlepay-element");
    document.getElementById('googlepay-element').style.display = 'block';
}

Receive the source event and use the source

googlepay.on('source', function(event) {
    var source = result.source;
  
    //pass the source to your back end for further processing. 
 
 
    //once verified that the source is created successfully, complete the Google Pay session by answering with a success message
    event.complete('success');
});

Google Pay example

The source event will surface a Source plus other details provided from Google Pay like the shopper's billing address, shipping address, and contact information in the response.

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.

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

Option 1. Attach the source to a cart

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

{
  "paymentMethod": {
    "sourceId": "e7ba0595-059c-460c-bad8-2812123b9313"
  }
}

Option 2. Attach the source to a shopper

POST /v1/shoppers/me/payment-options

{
  "paymentOption": {
    "nickName": "My Token",
    "isDefault": "true",
    "sourceId": "61033d62-c0f4-4a7e-b844-07daf26ba84e"
