Recur

Setting up subscriptions and recurring payments.

Recur

A recur payment is a payment which uses a recurrenceToken generated through a previous payment in order to charge the same card or account at a later time.

As the name implies, these payments are used for transactions which happen on a recurring basis. Common use cases could be subscriptions for magazines, newspapers or streaming services.

Identify the recurring model and token type based on your needs. We support both dynamic and static prices and intervals. Use the RecurrenceToken flow for recurring payments with a constant price and interval, and the UnscheduledToken flow for variable services or goods. We highly recommend using the unscheduled option, as it gives you flexibility regarding changes in amount and interval.

Please note that you need to do a capture after sending the request. We have added a capture section at the end of this page for that reason.

Generating The Token

First, you need an initial transaction where the recurrenceToken is generated and connected. You do that by adding the field generateRecurrenceToken in the PaymentOrder request and set the value to true. The payer must complete the purchase to activate the token.

(Read more about deleting the recurrence token here.)

payer id The URL to the payer resource where information about the payer can be retrieved.
orderItems id The URL to the orderItems resource where information about the order items can be retrieved.
operations array The array of operations that are possible to perform on the payment order in its current state.

GET The Token

You can retrieve it by using the expand option when you GET your payment. The GET request should look like the one below, with a ?$expand=paid after the paymentOrderId. The response should match the initial payment response, but with an expanded paid field.

Performing The Recurring Purchase

When you are ready to perform the recurring purchase, simply add the recurrenceToken field to the paymentOrder request and use the token as the value. Your request should look like the example below, and the response will match the paymentOrder response from the initial purchase.

After The Recurring Purchase

Please remember that the recur request will reserve the amount, but not charge it. You will (i.e. when you are ready to ship purchased physical products) have to perform a Capture request later on to complete the recurring purchase. You can also Cancel it if needed.

Required Field Type Description
check payment object The payment object.
check operation object Recur.
check recurrenceToken string The created recurrenceToken if operation: Recur or generateRecurrenceToken: true was used.
check currency string The currency of the payment order.
check amount integer The transaction amount (including VAT, if any) entered in the lowest monetary unit of the selected currency. E.g.: 10000 = 100.00 SEK, 5000 = 50.00 SEK.
check vatAmount integer The payment’s VAT (Value Added Tax) amount, entered in the lowest monetary unit of the selected currency. E.g.: 10000 = 100.00 SEK, 5000 = 50.00 SEK. The vatAmount entered will not affect the amount shown on the payment page, which only shows the total amount. This field is used to specify how much of the total amount the VAT will be. Set to 0 (zero) if there is no VAT amount charged.
check description string A textual description of the purchase. Maximum length is 40 characters.
check userAgent string The user agent of the payer. Should typically be set to the value of the User-Agent header sent by the payer’s web browser.

check urls string The URL to the urls resource where all URLs related to the payment order can be retrieved.
  callbackUrl string The URL that Swedbank Pay will perform an HTTP POST against every time a transaction is created on the payment order. See callback for details. For recurring transactions, the callback will only be sent for Trustly transactions, not card.
check payeeInfo object The payeeInfo object, containing information about the payee (the recipient of the money). See payeeInfo for details.
check payeeId string This is the unique id that identifies this payee (like merchant) set by Swedbank Pay.
check payeeReference string(30) A unique reference from the merchant system. Set per operation to ensure an exactly-once delivery of a transactional operation. Length and content validation depends on whether the transaction.number or the payeeReference is sent to the acquirer. If Swedbank Pay handles the settlement, the transaction.number is sent to the acquirer and the payeeReference must be in the format of A-Za-z0-9 and string(30). If you handle the settlement, Swedbank Pay will send the payeeReference and it will be limited to the format of string(12). All characters must be digits. In Invoice Payments payeeReference is used as an invoice/receipt number, if the receiptReference is not defined.
  receiptReference string(30) A unique reference to the transaction, provided by the merchant. Can be used as an invoice or receipt number as a supplement to payeeReference.
check payeeName string The payee name (like merchant name) that will be displayed when redirected to Swedbank Pay.
check productCategory string(50) A product category or number sent in from the payee/merchant. This is not validated by Swedbank Pay, but will be passed through the payment process and may be used in the settlement process.
check orderReference string(50) The order reference should reflect the order reference found in the merchant’s systems.
check subsite string(40) The subsite field can be used to perform a split settlement on the payment. The different subsite values must be resolved with Swedbank Pay reconciliation before being used. If you send in an unknown subsite value, it will be ignored and the payment will be settled using the merchant’s default settlement account. Must be in the format of A-Za-z0-9.
  payer string The payer object, containing information about the payer.
  payerReference string The reference to the payer from the merchant system, like e-mail address, mobile number, customer number etc. Mandatory if generateRecurrenceToken, RecurrenceToken, generatePaymentToken or paymentToken is true.
  metadata object A unique reference from the merchant system. Set per operation to ensure an exactly-once delivery of a transactional operation. Length and content validation depends on whether the transaction.number or the payeeReference is sent to the acquirer. If Swedbank Pay handles the settlement, the transaction.number is sent to the acquirer and the payeeReference must be in the format of A-Za-z0-9 and string(30). If you handle the settlement, Swedbank Pay will send the payeeReference and it will be limited to the format of string(12). All characters must be digits. In Invoice Payments payeeReference is used as an invoice/receipt number, if the receiptReference is not defined.
check orderItems array The array of items being purchased with the order. Note that authorization orderItems will not be printed on invoices, so lines meant for print must be added in the Capture request. The authorization orderItems will, however, be used in the Merchant Portal when captures or reversals are performed, and might be shown other places later. It is required to use this field to be able to send Capture orderItems. Capture requests should only contain items meant to be captured from the order.
check reference string A reference that identifies the order item.
check name string The name of the order item.

  imageUrl string The URL to an image of the order item.
  description string A textual description of the purchase. Maximum length is 40 characters.
  discountDescription string The human readable description of the possible discount.
check quantity integer The 4 decimal precision quantity of order items being purchased.
check quantityUnit string The unit of the quantity, such as pcs, grams, or similar. This is used for your own book keeping.
check unitPrice integer The price per unit of order item, including VAT.
  discountPrice integer If the order item is purchased at a discounted price. This field should contain that price, including VAT.
check vatPercent integer The percent value of the VAT multiplied by 100, so 25% becomes 2500.

check vatAmount integer The payment’s VAT (Value Added Tax) amount, entered in the lowest monetary unit of the selected currency. E.g.: 10000 = 100.00 SEK, 5000 = 50.00 SEK. The vatAmount entered will not affect the amount shown on the payment page, which only shows the total amount. This field is used to specify how much of the total amount the VAT will be. Set to 0 (zero) if there is no VAT amount charged.
  restrictedToInstruments array A list of the payment methods you wish to restrict the payment to. Currently Invoice only. Invoice supports the subtypes PayExFinancingNo, PayExFinancingSe and PayMonthlyInvoiceSe, separated by a dash, e.g.; Invoice-PayExFinancingNo. Default value is all supported payment methods. Use of this field requires an agreement with Swedbank Pay. You can restrict fees and/or discounts to certain payment methods by adding this field to the orderline you want to restrict. Use positive amounts to add fees and negative amounts to add discounts.

Step 5: Capture

Captures are only possible when a payment has a successful Authorization transaction, naturally excluding one-phase payment methods like Swish and Trustly. They will be marked as a Sale transaction. Two-phase payment methods like card and Vipps however, require a Capture to be completed.

Please note that you have a maximum of 5 consecutive failed attempts at a capture. The payment will be locked after the fifth, and you need to contact us for further attempts.

In addition to full captures, it is possible to do partial captures of the authorized amount. You can do more captures on the same payment later, up to the total authorized amount. A useful tool for when you have to split orders into several shipments.

First off, you must request the order information from the server to get the request link. With this, you can request the capture with the amount to capture, and get the status back.

To capture the authorized payment, we need to perform create-paymentorder-capture against the accompanying href returned in the operations list. See the abbreviated request and response below:
