PayU integration

PayU through Hosted Checkout

Hosted Checkout integration allows you to collect payment details from your payer through an interaction that the MasterCard Payment Gateway hosts and displays.

From the API version 70 onward, PayU is automatically available as a payment method once your payment service provider enables and configures you for this payment method.

For details, see Browser Payments via Hosted Checkout Integration.

PayU through Direct Payment

Direct Payment integration allows you to offer the PayU payment method on your own checkout page.

PayU is supported from the API version 67 onward.

Sample Code to initiate PayU Payment


{
    "apiOperation": "INITIATE_BROWSER_PAYMENT",
    "browserPayment": {
        "operation": "PAY",
        "returnUrl": "<your_merchant_URL>"
    },

    "customer": {
        "email": "john.smith@example.com"
    },

    "order": {

        "amount": "142.22",
        "currency": "CZK"
    },

    "sourceOfFunds": {
        "type": "PAYU",

            "payU": {
                "bankAccountHolder": "Test accountHolder",

How to Interpret the Transaction Result

The following table specifies the transaction response codes for the possible scenarios that you may encounter after initiating the PayU payment.

Initiate Browser Payment Response	What This Means...
`response.gatewayCode=SUBMITTED` `result=SUCCESS`	Redirect the payer using the URL provided in the response.
Retrieve Transaction/Retrieve Order Response	What This Means...
`response.gatewayCode=APPROVED` `result=SUCCESS`	The payment is successful.
`response.gatewayCode=PENDING` `result=PENDING`	The MasterCard Payment Gateway is waiting for a notification from the acquirer about the payment result. Try `RETRIEVE_TRANSACTION` again later or listen to notifications from the MasterCard Payment Gateway.
`response.gatewayCode=CANCELLED` `result=FAILURE`	The payer has canceled the interaction for this payment. Offer the payer the option to try another payment method.
`response.gatewayCode=DECLINED` or `ACQUIRER_SYSTEM_ERROR` `result=FAILURE`	The payment was declined. Offer the payer the option to try another payment method. In case of an `ACQUIRER_SYSTEM_ERROR`, you may want to inquire with the acquirer about the reason for the payment failure, or you can try `RETRIEVE_TRANSACTION` again.
`response.gatewayCode=TIMED_OUT` `result=FAILURE`	Treat this as a declined payment. The MasterCard Payment Gateway will make an attempt to ensure the transaction is not successful or will revert the transaction.

Refunds

You can refund the PayU payments in installments or in full. Ensure that you are configured for refunds on the Mastercard Payment Gateway and on your merchant account at your browser payments service provider.

Testing Your Integration

The MasterCard Payment Gateway provides a browser payments emulator that allows you to test your PayU integration.
