Payout P2P Seamless IMPS Integration

For onboarding in both the UAT and production environments, the merchant needs to provide the following information:

Technical Information Required:

1. IP Address: (For dynamic IPs, please provide a range of IP addresses.)

2. Callback URL/WebHook URL: This is used to notify your server of any changes in transaction status from our back office.

Once the merchant has provided all the required technical details, we will complete the necessary configuration in our back office and provide the Merchant ID (MID/PID) along with login credentials.

Let's see how it works:

1. The merchant will send a payout request through our API. Along with that, the merchant has to send the customer's account_no, account_holder, ifsc, the amount, payment_mode as imps.

2. Once we receive the request in the correct format, we will share a payment reference string (ref_code) that is necessary for any future references or actions related to the transaction.

3. After the payout is processed, whether successful or failed, we will send callback data to the provided callback URL (WebHook URL) with the details of the transaction.

4. To confirm the status of the payout, the merchant can use the polling API to check the current status and update their system accordingly with the payment outcome. (Status Polling)

PAYOUT REQUEST :

Before proceeding with this section of the document, the developer must review the basic workflow. This page explains how to submit a payment request.

Note: All requests must originate from whitelisted IP addresses. (Please ensure that your IP is whitelisted before making a request.)

CALLBACK

We trigger your callback URL whenever there is a change in the transaction status.

Valid Transaction status are:

1. Approved

2. Declined

3. Pending

4. Processing

5. Failed

The most famous transaction changes are (but not limited):

1. Pending => Processing

2. Pending => Approved

3. Pending => Declined/Failed

4. Approved => Declined/Failed

The callback landing page must be hosted on your server at a secret path, but it should still be publicly accessible from our whitelisted IPs. (Please ensure you accept data only from our IPs by implementing proper IP whitelisting.)

In the POST body, you will receive the following properties in JSON format:

Name	Type	Description
order_id	string	Your order id shared
requested_amount	int	requested amount
processed_amount	int	received amount
bank_ref	string	bank reference/UTR details if available
sender_pg	string	sender account name id if available
ref_code	string	unique code for the transaction
status	string	status of payment at this time
post_hash	string	post hash for security verification
payment_type	string	payment type
request_time	string	payment request time
action_time	string	payment made time
upi_vpa	string	receiver vpa if available
account_no	string	receiver account number
account_holder	string	receiver name
ifsc	string	receiver IFSC code
bank_name	string	receiver bank name if available
bank_address	string	receiver bank address if available
transaction_info	array	status change log of transaction

Follow the steps to verify the integrity of received data:

1. base64_decode post_hash:

Capture json data available in post body, then json decode and then pick post hash, and then base64 decode

$data = file_get_contents("php://input");
$json = json_decode($data, true);
$encrypted_hash=base64_decode($json['post_hash']);

1. Decrypt hash

Once you decrypt $encrypted_hash, you will get get plain remote_hash.

PHP

$remote_hash=decrypt($encrypted_hash);
function decrypt($ivHashCiphertext, $password) 
{    
    $method = "AES-256-CBC";    
    $iv = substr($ivHashCiphertext, 0, 16);    
    $hash = substr($ivHashCiphertext, 16, 32);    
    $ciphertext = substr($ivHashCiphertext, 48);    
    $key = hash('sha256', $password, true);    
    if (!hash_equals(hash_hmac('sha256', $ciphertext . $iv, $key, true),$hash)) 
    return null;    
    return openssl_decrypt($ciphertext, $method, $key,    		    
    OPENSSL_RAW_DATA, $iv);                               
}
$remote_hash=decrypt($encrypted_hash,$secret_key);

Node JS

const crypto = require('crypto');

function decrypt(ivHashCiphertext, password) {
    // If ivHashCiphertext is a string, assume it's base64 encoded
    if (typeof ivHashCiphertext === 'string') {
        ivHashCiphertext = Buffer.from(ivHashCiphertext, 'base64');
    }

    const method = 'aes-256-cbc';

    // Extract the initialization vector (first 16 bytes)
    const iv = ivHashCiphertext.slice(0, 16);

    // Extract the hash (next 32 bytes)
    const hash = ivHashCiphertext.slice(16, 48);

    // Extract the ciphertext (remaining bytes)
    const ciphertext = ivHashCiphertext.slice(48);

    // Generate the key using SHA-256 hash of the password
    const key = crypto.createHash('sha256').update(password, 'utf8').digest();

    // Compute HMAC-SHA256 of (ciphertext || iv) using the key
    const hmac = crypto.createHmac('sha256', key)
        .update(Buffer.concat([ciphertext, iv]))
        .digest();

    // Compare the computed HMAC with the extracted hash
    if (!crypto.timingSafeEqual(hmac, hash)) {
        return null; // Hashes do not match; return null
    }

    try {
        // Decrypt the ciphertext using AES-256-CBC
        const decipher = crypto.createDecipheriv(method, key, iv);
        const plaintext = Buffer.concat([
            decipher.update(ciphertext),
            decipher.final()
        ]);
        return plaintext.toString('utf8'); // Return the decrypted text as a UTF-8 string
    } catch (err) {
        // Decryption failed; return null
        return null;
    }
}

1. Compute hash (use md5 128 bit hashing algorithm to generate hash)

//Compute the payment hash locally

$local_hash = md5($order_id.$amount_processed.$status.$secret_key);

1. Verify hash (Compare hash given at request and local hash)

if ($remote_hash == $local_hash)
{  
    // consider received amount to update  
    // Mark the transaction as success & process the order  
    // You can write code process the order here  
    // Update your db with payment success  
    $hash_status = "Hash Matched";    
}  
else  
{  // Verification failed       
    $hash_status = "Hash Mismatch";  
}

1. Acknowledge the payment gateway by confirming that you have saved the payment status. Failure to acknowledge may result in multiple acknowledgment requests.

$data['hash_status']=$hash_status; // 'Hash Matched' or 'Hash Mismatch'
$data['acknowledge']=$acknowledge; // 'yes' or 'no'
header('Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8');
echo json_encode($data); // output as a json file

Definition of Payment Status:

• Approved: Payment has been successfully approved by our system.

• Failed: Payment failed on the bank's side.

• Processing: The bank is currently processing the payment.

• Declined: Payment has been declined by our system.

• Pending: The user session is active, and the payment is awaiting completion.

STATUS POLLING :

POST https://<domain>/payout/api/status_polling.php

This API is used to poll the status of a specific transaction.

Headers

Name	Value
Content-Type	application/json

Body

Name	Type	Description
secret_key	string	given secret key;
url_of_polling_api	string	you will get it
pid	string	Merchant ID/PID
ref_code	string	unique ref_code which is generated in payment request response
post_hash	string	we will explain how to generate this

Steps to generate post_hash :

1. Create a hash using md5 algorithm by appending values of ref_code, pid, secret_key

$local_hash = md5($ref_code . $pid  . $row['secret_key']);

NodeJS Example:

const local_hash = crypto.createHash('md5').update(ref_code + pid + secret_key).digest('hex');
const encodedStr=encrypt(local_hash, secret_key).toString('base64');

1. Encrypt hash (You need to encrypt the hash using the secret key)

PHP

$encrypted_hash=encrypt($local_hash,  $row['secret_key']); 
function encrypt($plaintext, $password) 
{    
    $method = "AES-256-CBC";    
    $key = hash('sha256', $password, true);    
    $iv = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(16);    
    $ciphertext = openssl_encrypt($plaintext, $method, $key,       
    OPENSSL_RAW_DATA, $iv);    
    $hash = hash_hmac('sha256', $ciphertext . $iv, $key, true);    
    return $iv . $hash . $ciphertext;
}

Node JS

encrypted_hash=encrypt(local_hash,  row['secret_key']); 
def encrypt(plaintext, password):
    key = hashlib.sha256(password.encode()).digest()
    iv = os.urandom(16)
    cipher = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_CBC, iv)
    ciphertext = cipher.encrypt(pad(plaintext.encode(), AES.block_size))
    hash_value = hash_hmac("SHA256",ciphertext + iv,key,True)
    return iv + hash_value + ciphertext
 
 
def hash_hmac(algorithm, data, key, raw_output=False):
    if isinstance(data, str):
        data = data.encode('utf-8')
    if isinstance(key, str):
        key = key.encode('utf-8')

    hmac_hash = hmac.new(key, data, getattr(hashlib, algorithm.lower()))
    if raw_output:
        return hmac_hash.digest()
    else:
        return hmac_hash.hexdigest()

1. base64_encode on encrypted hash for safe delivery

//Compute the payment hash locally

$encoded_hash=base64_encode($encrypted_hash);

1. Send a post request with given URL

//Send a POST request with the following parameters in the JSON body: pid, ref_code, and post_hash to url_of_polling_api. You will receive a response after the data is validated.

<?php
//A very simple PHP example that sends a HTTP POST to a remote site
$data['pid']=pid;
$data['ref_code']=ref_code;
$data['post_hash']=post_hash;
$ch = curl_init();
$url=you will get api url in the call
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1); // In real life you should use something like:
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,json_encode($data,true));
// Receive server response …
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$server_output = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
if($server_output)
{
    // You can follow step 5 to process response
}
?>

1. Process Response (You will get a JSON response)

Name	Type	Description
order_id	string	Merchant ID/PID
requested_amount	int	requested amount
processed_amount	int	processed amount
bank_ref	string	bank reference details if available

$data = file_get_contents("php://input");              
$row1=json_decode($data, true);                
echo $row1['order_id'];                
echo $row1['upi_id'];               
echo $row1['amount'];                
echo $row1['webhook_acknowledged'];            
echo $row1['status'];                
echo $row1['post_hash']; //  decode post hash
$encrypted_hash=base64_decode($row1['post_hash']);  // decrypt encrypted hash
$remote_hash = decrypt($encrypted_hash,$row['secret_key']);
$local_hash = md5($order_id . $data['amount'].
$data['status'].$row['secret_key']);   // generate local hash

1. Verify Response

#PHP Example if $local_hash equal to $remote_hash then the data is verified:

if($remote_hash==$local_hash)
{ // validated status }
else {  // invalid status  }
