Direct Integration
Direct Integration enables you to process payments entirely through server-to-server API calls, maintaining full ownership of the customer-facing checkout experience. This approach is ideal for businesses requiring complete control over their payment interface while leveraging Computop Paygate's global payment infrastructure.
Core characteristics:
- No redirects. Customers remain on your website/app throughout checkout
- Full ownership and control of the UI/UX of checkout process.
- Requires more integration efforts than other integrations.
- Requires stricter compliance to manage PCI sensitive data.
Payment Flow

- Customer proceeds to checkout on your online store.
- Your frontend requests the payment page to your server.
- Your server renders the payment form.
- Customer enters the details and completes payment.
- Your frontend requests for payment to your server.
- Your server makes a Create payment call with
paymentMethods.integrationType=DIRECT
to Computop Paygate. - Computop Paygate responds with HTTP 201 response code or an error depending on the outcome of the transaction.
- Your server returns a success or a failure page based on the responseCode of the payment.
