Example Descriptions

Create BECS Direct Debit transaction with guest shopper

This example shows a basic create BECS Direct Debit Transaction request, including the minimum required fields to process a BECS Direct Debit transaction with basic information about a guest shopper.

For all BECS Direct Debit transactions, you must obtain permission from the shopper to debit their account by having them authorize the mandate.

Include the authorizedByShopper element with the value set to true to indicate that you have obtained the shopper's permission.

Create BECS Direct Debit transaction with Vaulted Shopper

To perform a BECS Direct Debit Transaction with an existing vaulted shopper (with saved bank account details), you must include the vaultedShopperId property within the altTransaction resource in your request.

Above is an example of a Create BECS Direct Debit Transaction request with an existing vaulted shopper. When you use a vaulted shopper, the becsDirectDebitTransaction property can be left empty, as shown in the example.

Create BECS Direct Debit transaction with multiple vaulted Bank Accounts

This example shows a Create BECS Direct Debit Transaction request when the customer has more than one BECS Direct Debit account. When your vaulted shopper has multiple BECS Direct Debit accounts use becsDirectDebitInfo to identify which bank account to use for the transaction.

Create BECS Direct Debit transaction with MOTO

This example shows a Create BECS Direct Debit transaction request with MOTO. MOTO is passed as an indication that the transaction was done on behalf of the shopper, like with a phone order.
