Paysera - API documentation

Информация Извините, эта глава доступна только на английском языке.

Allowance is a permission to make payments without asking the user herself. It allows to make small payments from wallet very quickly and smoothly, after she has confirmed client-initiated allowance or created one by herself.

Предупреждение Creating an allowance does not guarantee that payment will be successfuly made without user intervention. For example, there may be insufficient account balance in that wallet.

Важно Only one allowance can be active for a wallet at a time. If client creates new one and it gets confirmed, the active one will get canceled.

Create allowance

This method creates allowance in Paysera system. After creating allowance, user should be redirected to confirmation page or allowance should be confirmed in other ways.

Информация Creating a new allowance does not affect the active one - it is canceled only when (if) the new one is confirmed

Предупреждение Allowances with status new are deleted automatically 1 month after creation time.

max_price

integer

required if max_price_decimal is not provided,
unavailable if max_price_decimal is provided

Maximum amount in cents that can be charged from wallet in provided time

max_price_decimal

string

required if max_price is not provided,
unavailable if max_price is provided

Maximum decimal amount that that can be charged from wallet in provided time

time

integer

required, unless period specified

Time in seconds that this limit is valid for. Time has no start time - this is the limit that can be never exceeded in this time

period

integer

required, unless time specified

Deprecated. Use parameter time instead.
Period in hours that this limit is valid for. Time has no start time - this is the limit that can be never exceeded in this time

Информация Each limit narrows the possible charging time and amount. If you create limit 1 Euro / 60 s there is no point adding 60 Euros / 3600 s, because first one is narrower than the second one.

Предупреждение Maximum price of one payment can be no bigger than the limit's max_price in smallest time. If you create limit 1 Euro / 1 h, price of payment cannot be bigger than 1 Euro, otherwise it would exceed the limit (no matter what are the other limits in that allowance). This does not mean that you cannot have payments with bigger prices - you just have ask user to confirm the payment.

On success API returns allowance object that was created. See get allowance information for more info.

Информация This allows us to charge wallet maximum sum of 15.00 Euros in 36 days. For example, this can be used for charging 3 Euros each week for 5 weeks.
