Integration considerations

The following section outlines integration considerations for various payment types, detailing customized integration solutions and payment method features.

About normalUrl

  • For Web, WAP, and App terminals, normalUrl is returned in the response of pay API. The buyer is redirected to the address specified by normalUrl and uses the payment code displayed on the page to proceed with the payment. The buyer can directly scan the QR code to pay, or enter the phone number in the KPLUS app to pay. After the buyer completes the payment on the phone, the middle page automatically redirects to the payment method result page and merchant result page.
  • Different terminal types have specific integration features when returning normalUrl.
  • WAP: The returned normalUrl is the payment code and payment operation display page. The buyer copies the payment code and proceeds to the bank app or the ATM based on the payment operation or the screenshot to complete the payment.
  • App: The returned normalUrl does not trigger the payment method app. It is recommended that you render the URL page directly within the merchant app and provide payment operation steps to guide buyers to complete the payment.

After payments

  • After the buyer completes the payment in the bank app, the banking app will not automatically redirect to the merchant's results page. The buyer needs to manually navigate to the transaction initiation app (the merchant app or browser).
  • This payment method does not support refunds. It is recommended to communicate directly with the buyer offline.

Default timeout

When the payment link on the Web and WAP terminal returns, the order page countdown restarts for 15 minutes If the buyer manually refreshes. This may result in a situation where Antom closes the order while the buyer is still able to complete the payment, leading to potential payment discrepancies. It is recommended to access the payment discrepancies notification.
