2.1.1Merchant Account Name

The merchant Account Name is provided by Adyen and is also visible in the backend of the account on the top left corner. For the configuration you have to switch into the Merchant Account you want to connect with the platform and provide this name also in the connector configuration.

If some roles are not showing up on the screen, please contact Adyen support to help you enable them.

Additionally, because you’re using the "API PCI Payments" role, Adyen may ask you to provide additional documentation to prove that you are allowed to use this role. You can find all information and documents that you can forward to Adyen on this page: https://en.wallee.com/legal/pci.

If you are using iDEAL payments, you need to select an additional role:

This role is only required for iDEAL payments. If this role is not showing on the screen, please contact Adyen support to help you enable it.

Don’t forget to click Save at the bottom to save the configured user.

2.2.2For production/live environment

Please first follow all the same steps you used to configure the test environment.

In addition, you need to configure the "URL Prefix" for the production API access. You can find your production API endpoint if you go to Developers > API URLs in your Adyen account. The URL will be of the form:

https://[random]-[company name]-pal-live.adyenpayments.com/[some_more_text_here]

The part [random]-[company name] should be copied as the URL prefix into your live payment processor settings on portal.

2.3Setup the Webhooks and Webhook Username/Password

In order to be notified about the status of the payment transaction, it is important that the correct webhooks are setup on Adyen merchant backend. In order to create the webhooks navigate in the Adyen backend to Developers > Webhooks.

The following webhook types must be enabled for correct processing of payments:

  • Standard Notification: This is required to be enabled regardless of which payment methods are used. Note when setting up the standard notifications that there is a section on the page titled "Additional Settings" which you can expand by clicking on the small triangle, if it’s not already expanded. If you are using certain payment methods, you need to enable some options. In case you process credit cards including 3D Secure you have to active Include 3D Secure Result in the Additional Settings.

  • Ideal Details Notification: When using iDeal payments, this additional notification type is required to be enabled.

  • Boleto Pending Notification: When using Boleto Bancário payments, this additional notification type is required to be enabled.

Note
If webhooks are not set up correctly, it will not be possible to process the payments and it may cause your Adyen account to be blocked from receiving any further notifications requiring you to contact Adyen support to resolve this issue.

The following parameters must be set under General / Server Configuration for the correct processing of payments:
