Direct Payment Flow

  1. Merchant calls the Get Configuration endpoint to retrieve Clearpay order limits, possibly as part of an asynchronous scheduled background process.
  2. Merchant stores these minimum and maximum order values server-side.
  3. Separately, at the checkout, Merchant uses the stored Clearpay minimum and maximum order values to determine if Clearpay should be presented as an available payment method.
  4. Merchant calls the Create Order endpoint to retrieve a Clearpay order token.
  5. Merchant uses the token in combination with the JavaScript afterpay.js to direct the Consumer through the Clearpay screenflow.
  6. Consumer completes the Clearpay screenflow and is returned to the Merchant website.
  • If the Consumer clicks “confirm”, they will be returned to the Merchant website with the orderToken and a status of “SUCCESS”.
  • If the Consumer cancels, they will be returned to the Merchant website with the orderToken and a status of “CANCELLED”.
  1. If the merchant is able to fulfil the order, the merchant calls the Capture Payment endpoint to capture the payment.
  • Payment status (“APPROVED” or “DECLINED”) is only known once Capture Payment has been completed.
  • If the payment was approved by Clearpay, the Merchant presents the Consumer with an order confirmation/receipt page.
  • If the payment was declined by Clearpay (e.g. the Consumer’s card details are entered incorrectly), the Merchant presents an appropriate message to the Consumer at the checkout.
