Create SEPA DD Transaction

post https://sandbox.bluesnap.com/services/2/alt-transactions

The Create SEPA DD Transaction request performs a transaction (purchase) using the SEPA Direct Debit payment method. Note that the shopper's account is not immediately debited - it takes about 5 to 6 business days for the shopper's bank to approve the charge and for their account to be debited.

For more information, see the SEPA Direct Debit guide.

Example Descriptions

For details about the above examples, see:

Create basic SEPA DD Transaction with payer info

This example shows a basic Create SEPA DD Transaction request with a new shopper. For all SEPA DD transactions, include the authorizedByShopper property with the value set to true to indicate that you have obtained the shopper's mandate acceptance.

A successful response from BlueSnap includes a mandateId and mandateDate, whose values identify the shopper's mandate acceptance and the date on which the mandate was accepted, respectively. These two values must be displayed on the post-checkout page, the pre-notification email, and the receipt email.

Additionally, the response contains:

  • preNotificationText — the standard text (in English) that you must display in the pre-notification email
  • preNotificationTranslationRef — Get Pre-Notification Text endpoint to obtain text in another language.

Create SEPA DD Transaction with vaulted shopper with one saved account

To perform a Create SEPA DD Transaction with an existing vaulted shopper with one saved bank account, you include the vaultedShopperId property within the altTransaction object in your request. The sepaDirectDebitTransaction property can be left empty, as shown in the example.

Create SEPA DD Transaction with vaulted shopper with multiple saved accounts

To perform a Create SEPA DD Transaction request with an existing vaulted shopper with multiple saved bank accounts, you include the vaultedShopperId property within the altTransaction object in your request. Additionally, you specify the shopper's bank account by including ibanFirstFour and ibanLastFour within the sebaDirectDebitTransaction property.

The above example includes an existing vaulted shopper with ID 21781965, and their bank account is specified by the first four characters (DE09) and last four characters (7893) of the IBAN.

Create ECP transaction with MOTO

This example shows a SEPA DD 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.
