Typical Scenarios
Sightline Payment
When you want to process a Play+ (Sightline) payment request, you would do the following:
- Create a Payment Handle with the transactionType parameter set to PAYMENT and the paymentType parameter set to SIGHTLINE.
- Since Sightline is supported only via a hosted page, Paysafe returns a response with the following:
- The action parameter is set to REDIRECT
- A payment_redirect link that points to the Play+ hosted page URL
- You can either embed the hosted page within your own custom checkout solution or redirect the customer to the hosted page URL on a different tab.
- Interactions on the hosted page are handled by Paysafe and on successful payment, we will notify you on the on_completed parameter included with your request.
- At this point, the status of the Payment Handle becomes PAYABLE.
- Use the paymentHandleToken returned in the response to process the Payment request.
Once the Payment request is successfully completed, the funds are immediately transferred to the merchant's account.
