Cards

Source Parameter

The possible values for the source parameter for cards are listed below:

• customer
• business
• internal
• gateway
• issuer_bank

Step Parameter

The possible values for the step parameter, along with the description, are listed below:

1. payment_initiation
   Your system initiates and sends the payment request to our server. Our server validates your request, creates the payment flow and forwards the request to the Gateway.

2. card_enrollment_check
   Upon receiving a request from Razorpay, Gateway sends the enrollment check request to the bank for the enrollment of the card check.

3. payment_authentication
   The bank verifies the enrollment of the card, and then requests the authentication of the customer by sending 3DS URL and OTP to the customer.

   • 3DS URL
     Bank sends the Authentication (3DS URL), which is routed through Gateway > Razorpay > Customer.

   • OTP
     The bank sends the OTP to the customer’s mobile directly. The customer enters the valid OTP within the time on the bank’s OTP page.

4. payment_authorization
   Once the customer has completed the authentication, the bank authorises the release of the funds. The authorisation status is communicated to the Gateway which in turn communicates the same to Razorpay.

5. payment_capture
   Once the payment is successfully authorised, Razorpay sends the capture request to the Gateway which in turn sends the same to the bank to capture the authorised payment.
