Accept a payment with Revolut Pay

Add support for Revolut Pay to your integration.

Web

Mobile

Revolut Pay is a reusable payment method where customers are required to authenticate their payment. Customers pay by being redirected from your website or app, authorising the payment with Revolut Pay, then returning to your website or app. You get immediate notification of whether the payment succeeded or failed.

Set up Stripe
Server-side

First, you need a Stripe account. Register now.

Use our official libraries for access to the Stripe API from your application:

Create a PaymentIntent
Server-side

A PaymentIntent is an object that represents your intent to collect payment from your customer and tracks the lifecycle of the payment process. Create a PaymentIntent on your server and specify the amount to collect and a supported currency. If you have an existing Payment Intents integration, add revolut_pay to the list of payment method types.

Retrieve the client secret

The PaymentIntent includes a client secret that the client side uses to securely complete the payment process. You can use different approaches to pass the client secret to the client side.

Retrieve the client secret from an endpoint on your server, using the browser’s fetch function. This approach is best if your client side is a single-page application, particularly one built with a modern front-end framework such as React. Create the server endpoint that serves the client secret:

And then fetch the client secret with JavaScript on the client side:

(async () => {
  const response = await fetch('/secret');
  const {client_secret: clientSecret} = await response.json();
  // Render the form using the clientSecret
})();

Redirect to the Revolut Pay wallet
Client-side

When a customer clicks to pay with Revolut Pay, use Stripe.js to submit the payment to Stripe. Stripe.js is the foundational JavaScript library for building payment flows. It automatically handles complexities like the redirect described below, and enables you to extend your integration to other payment methods. Include the Stripe.js script on your checkout page by adding it to the head of your HTML file.

checkout.html
<head>
  <title>Checkout</title>
  <script src="https://js.stripe.com/basil/stripe.js"></script>
</head>

Create an instance of Stripe.js with the following JavaScript on your checkout page.

client.js
// Set your publishable key. Remember to change this to your live publishable key in production!
// See your keys here: https://dashboard.stripe.com/apikeys
const stripe = Stripe('pk_test_TYooMQauvdEDq54NiTphI7jx'
);

Use the client secret of the PaymentIntent and call stripe.confirmPayment to handle the Revolut Pay redirect. Add a return_url to determine where Stripe redirects the customer after they complete the payment.

client.js
const form = document.getElementById('payment-form');

form.addEventListener('submit', async function(event) {
  event.preventDefault();

  // Set the clientSecret of the PaymentIntent
  const { error } = await stripe.confirmPayment({
    clientSecret: clientSecret,
    confirmParams: {
      payment_method_data: {
        type: 'revolut_pay',
      },
      // Return URL where the customer should be redirected after the authorization
      return_url: `${window.location.href}`,
    },
  });

  if (error) {
    // Inform the customer that there was an error.
    const errorElement = document.getElementById('error-message');
    errorElement.textContent = result.error.message;
  }
});

The return_url corresponds to a page on your website that displays the result of the payment. You can determine what to display by verifying the status of the PaymentIntent. To verify the status, the Stripe redirect to the return_url includes the following URL query parameters. You can also append your own query parameters to the return_url. They persist throughout the redirect process.

Parameter	Description
`payment_intent`	The unique identifier for the `PaymentIntent`.
`payment_intent_client_secret`	The client secret of the `PaymentIntent` object.

OptionalHandle the redirect manually
Server-side

The best way to handle redirects is to use Stripe.js with confirmPayment. If you need to manually redirect your customers:

Provide the URL to redirect your customers to after they complete their payment.

Confirm the PaymentIntent has a status of requires_action. The type for the next_action will be redirect_to_url.

"next_action": {
  "type": "redirect_to_url",
  "redirect_to_url": {
    "url": "https://hooks.stripe.com/...",
    "return_url": "https://example.com/checkout/complete"
  }
}

Redirect the customer to the URL provided in the next_action property.

When the customer finishes the payment process, they’re sent to the return_url destination. The payment_intent and payment_intent_client_secret URL query parameters are included and you can pass through your own query parameters, as described above.

OptionalHandle post-payment events

Stripe sends a payment_intent.succeeded event when the payment completes. Use the Dashboard, a custom webhook, or a partner solution to receive these events and run actions, like sending an order confirmation email to your customer, logging the sale in a database, or starting a shipping workflow.

Listen for these events rather than waiting on a callback from the client. On the client, the customer could close the browser window or quit the app before the callback executes, and malicious clients could manipulate the response. Setting up your integration to listen for asynchronous events also helps you accept more payment methods in the future. Learn about the differences between all supported payment methods.

Receive events and run business actions

There are a few options for receiving and running business actions.

Manually

Use the Stripe Dashboard to view all your Stripe payments, send email receipts, handle payouts, or retry failed payments.

View your test payments in the Dashboard

Custom code

Build a webhook handler to listen for events and build custom asynchronous payment flows. Test and debug your webhook integration locally with the Stripe CLI.

Build a custom webhook

Prebuilt apps

Handle common business events, such as automation or marketing and sales, by integrating a partner application.
