Can I setup my own local payment provider to accept payments in vouchers?

It is possible to set up your own payment provider.
Follow the steps below to see how that works:

1)
Create a Voucher and navigate to the "payment settings" -> "make a payment". (It is enabled by default in Vouchers)
Select as payment method: "Custom".


2)
Enter the URL where your payment will take place .
Example: https://www.yourdomain.com/Voucherpay.php

3)
Consumer view:
The consumer opens the Voucher. On the payment page the Voucher user is redirected to your payment URL:

Example:
Voucher URL: digivoucher.com/p/abcdef/ab12de34fg56gh89
Note: We pass the unique voucher session ID in the URL. Example: https://www.yourdomain.com/pay.php?voucher=abcfef&voucherid=ab12de34fg56gh89

4)
Develop the payment process on your page.
After a successful payment, set up an API call to inform our platform that Voucher session ID was paid.

API ENDPOINT:

You need to pass the operation=CLAIM method. A successful payment is equal to a claimed voucher.
Optional you can pass custom fields (customfield1 untill customfield7) to store additional information (e.g. unique payment reference, payment method, etc)

Note: you can find your API credentials in your account (integrations -> API)

After making the API call you can redirect back to our Voucher URL. example: digivoucher.com/p/abcdef/ab12de34fg56gh89
The consumer will see the voucher was paid and he can save/redeem it now.

5)
Result: the consumer has exact the same flow as our integration payment methods (PayPal/Stripe) but processed through your own payment provider.
The flow to save/redeem/validate the Voucher is exact the same.
