Chapter 5. Adyen Integration

In Audience > Billing > Charging & Gateway, enable charging by checking the box and click Save. You will see all the fields that you need to setup to create the link to your Adyen gateway. Remember to select Adyen from the gateway dropdown menu and save changes.

By default when credit card authorization requests are sent from 3scale to Adyen, the returned response does not include the unique identifier of the credit card. To ensure that the correct credit card reference is saved in 3scale and the correct card is charged, this additional data needs to be enabled. In order to do this, you should ask Adyen support to enable the "alias" additional data in the response for the authorization request.

Make sure you accelerate the test cycle by enabling Prepaid Mode to generate the charge within a day or so. Then choose an existing test account and create an invoice with a line item charge added. Charge the account immediately. This testing approach will incur some minor costs, but it is worth it for the peace of mind that everything works fine, before you have real paying developers using your API.

The payment gateway is now set up, but your users might not be able to use it yet since it is not configured in the CMS. Go to the developer portal tab, and find the template called Payment Gateway / Show on the left navigation pane.

If it’s not there already, add the following snippet after the block of code beginning with {% when "stripe" %}

{% when "adyen12" %}
{% if current_account.has_billing_address? %}
  {% adyen12_form %}
{% else %}
  <p><a href="{{ current_account.edit_adyen12_billing_address_url }}">First add a billing address</a></p>
{% endif %}

{% when "adyen12" %}
{% if current_account.has_billing_address? %}
  {% adyen12_form %}
{% else %}
  <p><a href="{{ current_account.edit_adyen12_billing_address_url }}">First add a billing address</a></p>
{% endif %}

If your account is in sandbox mode and you encounter any problems, you’ll have to change it to production.
