Create a payment request

Sebastix

I would like to make a (iDEAL) payment request in a ecommerce checkout process with the Bunq API.
I've found three ways to achieve this goal:
1) iDEAL Merchant Transaction - https://doc.bunq.com/#/ideal-merchant-transaction
2) Bunqme Tab - https://doc.bunq.com/#/bunqme-tab
3) With a Tab Payment - https://doc.bunq.com/#/tab

I'm using the Bunq PHP SDK library.

None of the above implementations are fully working at the sandbox environment.

1) Not possible to give up a return url to redirect the customer back to the website and validate the transaction
2) The BunqmeTabShare URL is not responding (time-out)
3) When the Tab URL opens a message 'Nothing to see here' appears

Anyone an idea to which direction I've look at? And is there a Bunq developer communication channel (Slack or Telegram for example)?

Thanks in advance!

Sebastian Hagens Hi Sebastian! 👋

I would use the bunqme-tab endpoint to create payment requests.
But you're right about "bunqme_tab_share_url", that contains a not working URL in the Sandbox environment (it's a known issue that's reported).

"ideal-merchant-transaction" is to create an iDEAL top-up request. You can't add a transaction description in this case, only an amount.

There is a community developer channel on Telegram: https://t.me/bunqcommunity

Bastiaan Thanks for the information!

Is there anyone who can help me with more information about the Tab Payment option?
There is even a quickstart in the documentation https://beta.doc.bunq.com/quickstart/tab-payment explained how this should work. This solution look as the best fit for the ecommerce website (build with Drupal 8).

Any progress on this subject?
My customer would like to know what his options are as a Bunq customer.
And me as a developer (and also a Bunq customer) would like to know what solutions would fit best if it was working correctly...

The BunqMe tab payment on the sandbox environment is broken, so I'm trying to test this on production.
When I scan the QR code for a iDEAL payment with Bunq, I'm trying to pay the request with one of my Bunq accounts. When I've scanned the QR code with my Bunq app, I pay the request but then nothing is happening on my screen?? The QR code stays visible and nothing happens... I assume a message will follow the payment has succeeded and a redirect will follow I've attached to the BunqMeTabEntry?

Still no clear answer on this?
