PPP Endpoint Implementation

When this skill applies

Use this skill when:

  • Building a new payment connector middleware that integrates a PSP with the VTEX Payment Gateway
  • Implementing, debugging, or extending any of the 9 PPP endpoints
  • Preparing a connector for VTEX Payment Provider Test Suite homologation

Do not use this skill for:

Decision rules

  • The connector MUST implement all 6 payment-flow endpoints: Manifest, Create Payment, Cancel, Capture/Settle, Refund, Inbound Request.
  • The configuration flow (3 endpoints: Create Auth Token, Provider Auth Redirect, Get Credentials) is optional but recommended for merchant onboarding.
  • All endpoints must be served over HTTPS on port 443 with TLS 1.2.
  • The connector must respond in under 5 seconds during homologation tests and under 20 seconds in production.
  • The provider must be PCI-DSS certified or use Secure Proxy for card payments.
  • The Gateway initiates all calls. The middleware never calls the Gateway except via callbackUrl (async notifications) and Secure Proxy (card data forwarding).

Hard constraints

Constraint: Implement all required payment flow endpoints

The connector MUST implement all six payment-flow endpoints: GET /manifest, POST /payments, POST /payments/{paymentId}/cancellations, POST /payments/{paymentId}/settlements, POST /payments/{paymentId}/refunds, and POST /payments/{paymentId}/inbound-request/{action}.

Why this matters The VTEX Payment Provider Test Suite validates every endpoint during homologation. Missing endpoints cause test failures and the connector will not be approved. At runtime, the Gateway expects all endpoints — a missing cancel endpoint means payments cannot be voided.

Detection If the connector router/handler file does not define handlers for all 6 payment-flow paths, STOP and add the missing endpoints before proceeding.

Correct

typescript
import { Router } from "express";

const router = Router();

// All 6 payment-flow endpoints implemented
router.get("/manifest", manifestHandler);
router.post("/payments", createPaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/cancellations", cancelPaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/settlements", capturePaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/refunds", refundPaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/inbound-request/:action", inboundRequestHandler);

export default router;

Wrong

typescript
import { Router } from "express";

const router = Router();

// Missing manifest, inbound-request, and refund endpoints
// This will fail homologation and break runtime operations
router.post("/payments", createPaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/cancellations", cancelPaymentHandler);
router.post("/payments/:paymentId/settlements", capturePaymentHandler);

export default router;

Constraint: Return correct HTTP status codes and response shapes

Each endpoint MUST return the exact response shape documented in the PPP API. Create Payment MUST return paymentId, status, authorizationId, tid, nsu, acquirer, code, message, delayToAutoSettle, delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud, and delayToCancel. Cancel MUST return paymentId, cancellationId, code, message, requestId. Capture MUST return paymentId, settleId, value, code, message, requestId. Refund MUST return paymentId, refundId, value, code, message, requestId.

Why this matters The Gateway parses these fields programmatically. Missing fields cause deserialization errors and the Gateway treats the payment as failed. Incorrect delayToAutoSettle values cause payments to auto-cancel or auto-capture at wrong times.

Detection If a response object is missing any of the required fields for its endpoint, STOP and add the missing fields.

Correct

typescript
interface CreatePaymentResponse {
  paymentId: string;
  status: "approved" | "denied" | "undefined";
  authorizationId: string | null;
  nsu: string | null;
  tid: string | null;
  acquirer: string | null;
  code: string | null;
  message: string | null;
  delayToAutoSettle: number;
  delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud: number;
  delayToCancel: number;
  paymentUrl?: string;
}

async function createPaymentHandler(req: Request, res: Response): Promise<void> {
  const { paymentId, value, currency, paymentMethod, card, callbackUrl } = req.body;

  const result = await processPaymentWithAcquirer(req.body);

  const response: CreatePaymentResponse = {
    paymentId,
    status: result.status,
    authorizationId: result.authorizationId ?? null,
    nsu: result.nsu ?? null,
    tid: result.tid ?? null,
    acquirer: "MyAcquirer",
    code: result.code ?? null,
    message: result.message ?? null,
    delayToAutoSettle: 21600,    // 6 hours in seconds
    delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud: 1800, // 30 minutes in seconds
    delayToCancel: 21600,         // 6 hours in seconds
  };

  res.status(200).json(response);
}

Wrong

typescript
// Missing required fields — Gateway will reject this response
async function createPaymentHandler(req: Request, res: Response): Promise<void> {
  const result = await processPaymentWithAcquirer(req.body);

  // Missing: authorizationId, nsu, tid, acquirer, code, message,
  // delayToAutoSettle, delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud, delayToCancel
  res.status(200).json({
    paymentId: req.body.paymentId,
    status: result.status,
  });
}

Constraint: Manifest must declare all supported payment methods

The GET /manifest endpoint MUST return a paymentMethods array listing every payment method the connector supports, with the correct name and allowsSplit configuration for each.

Why this matters The Gateway reads the manifest to determine which payment methods are available. If a method is missing, merchants cannot configure it in the VTEX Admin. An incorrect allowsSplit value causes split payment failures.

Detection If the manifest handler returns an empty paymentMethods array or hardcodes methods the provider does not actually support, STOP and fix the manifest.

Correct

typescript
async function manifestHandler(_req: Request, res: Response): Promise<void> {
  const manifest = {
    paymentMethods: [
      { name: "Visa", allowsSplit: "onCapture" },
      { name: "Mastercard", allowsSplit: "onCapture" },
      { name: "American Express", allowsSplit: "onCapture" },
      { name: "BankInvoice", allowsSplit: "onAuthorize" },
      { name: "Pix", allowsSplit: "disabled" },
    ],
  };

  res.status(200).json(manifest);
}

Wrong

typescript
// Empty manifest — no payment methods will appear in the Admin
async function manifestHandler(_req: Request, res: Response): Promise<void> {
  res.status(200).json({ paymentMethods: [] });
}

Preferred pattern

Architecture overview:

text
Shopper → VTEX Checkout → VTEX Payment Gateway → [Your Connector Middleware] → Acquirer/PSP
                                ↕
                    Configuration Flow (Admin)

Recommended TypeScript interfaces for all endpoint contracts:

typescript
// --- Manifest ---
interface ManifestResponse {
  paymentMethods: Array<{
    name: string;
    allowsSplit: "onCapture" | "onAuthorize" | "disabled";
  }>;
}

// --- Create Payment ---
interface CreatePaymentRequest {
  reference: string;
  orderId: string;
  transactionId: string;
  paymentId: string;
  paymentMethod: string;
  value: number;
  currency: string;
  installments: number;
  card?: {
    holder: string;
    number: string;
    csc: string;
    expiration: { month: string; year: string };
  };
  miniCart: Record<string, unknown>;
  callbackUrl: string;
  returnUrl?: string;
}

interface CreatePaymentResponse {
  paymentId: string;
  status: "approved" | "denied" | "undefined";
  authorizationId: string | null;
  nsu: string | null;
  tid: string | null;
  acquirer: string | null;
  code: string | null;
  message: string | null;
  delayToAutoSettle: number;
  delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud: number;
  delayToCancel: number;
  paymentUrl?: string;
}

// --- Cancel Payment ---
interface CancelPaymentResponse {
  paymentId: string;
  cancellationId: string | null;
  code: string | null;
  message: string | null;
  requestId: string;
}

// --- Capture/Settle Payment ---
interface CapturePaymentResponse {
  paymentId: string;
  settleId: string | null;
  value: number;
  code: string | null;
  message: string | null;
  requestId: string;
}

// --- Refund Payment ---
interface RefundPaymentResponse {
  paymentId: string;
  refundId: string | null;
  value: number;
  code: string | null;
  message: string | null;
  requestId: string;
}

// --- Inbound Request ---
interface InboundResponse {
  requestId: string;
  paymentId: string;
  responseData: {
    statusCode: number;
    contentType: string;
    content: string;
  };
}

Complete payment flow router with all 6 endpoints:

typescript
import { Router, Request, Response } from "express";

const router = Router();

router.get("/manifest", async (_req: Request, res: Response) => {
  res.status(200).json({
    paymentMethods: [
      { name: "Visa", allowsSplit: "onCapture" },
      { name: "Mastercard", allowsSplit: "onCapture" },
      { name: "Pix", allowsSplit: "disabled" },
    ],
  });
});

router.post("/payments", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const body: CreatePaymentRequest = req.body;
  const result = await processWithAcquirer(body);

  const response: CreatePaymentResponse = {
    paymentId: body.paymentId,
    status: result.status,
    authorizationId: result.authorizationId ?? null,
    nsu: result.nsu ?? null,
    tid: result.tid ?? null,
    acquirer: "MyProvider",
    code: result.code ?? null,
    message: result.message ?? null,
    delayToAutoSettle: 21600,
    delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud: 1800,
    delayToCancel: 21600,
  };
  res.status(200).json(response);
});

router.post("/payments/:paymentId/cancellations", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const { paymentId } = req.params;
  const { requestId } = req.body;
  const result = await cancelWithAcquirer(paymentId);

  res.status(200).json({
    paymentId,
    cancellationId: result.cancellationId ?? null,
    code: result.code ?? null,
    message: result.message ?? "Successfully cancelled",
    requestId,
  });
});

router.post("/payments/:paymentId/settlements", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const body = req.body;
  const result = await captureWithAcquirer(body.paymentId, body.value);

  res.status(200).json({
    paymentId: body.paymentId,
    settleId: result.settleId ?? null,
    value: result.capturedValue ?? body.value,
    code: result.code ?? null,
    message: result.message ?? null,
    requestId: body.requestId,
  });
});

router.post("/payments/:paymentId/refunds", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const body = req.body;
  const result = await refundWithAcquirer(body.paymentId, body.value);

  res.status(200).json({
    paymentId: body.paymentId,
    refundId: result.refundId ?? null,
    value: result.refundedValue ?? body.value,
    code: result.code ?? null,
    message: result.message ?? null,
    requestId: body.requestId,
  });
});

router.post("/payments/:paymentId/inbound-request/:action", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const body = req.body;
  const result = await handleInbound(body);

  res.status(200).json({
    requestId: body.requestId,
    paymentId: body.paymentId,
    responseData: {
      statusCode: 200,
      contentType: "application/json",
      content: JSON.stringify(result),
    },
  });
});

export default router;

Configuration flow endpoints (optional, for merchant onboarding):

typescript
import { Router, Request, Response } from "express";

const configRouter = Router();

// 1. POST /authorization/token
configRouter.post("/authorization/token", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const { applicationId, returnUrl } = req.body;
  const token = await generateAuthorizationToken(applicationId, returnUrl);
  res.status(200).json({ applicationId, token });
});

// 2. GET /authorization/redirect
configRouter.get("/authorization/redirect", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const { token } = req.query;
  const providerLoginUrl = buildProviderLoginUrl(token as string);
  res.redirect(302, providerLoginUrl);
});

// 3. GET /authorization/credentials
configRouter.get("/authorization/credentials", async (req: Request, res: Response) => {
  const { authorizationCode } = req.query;
  const credentials = await exchangeCodeForCredentials(authorizationCode as string);
  res.status(200).json({
    applicationId: "vtex",
    appKey: credentials.appKey,
    appToken: credentials.appToken,
  });
});

export default configRouter;

Common failure modes

  • Partial endpoint implementation — Implementing only Create Payment and Capture while skipping Manifest, Cancel, Refund, and Inbound Request. The Test Suite tests all endpoints and will fail homologation. At runtime, the Gateway cannot cancel or refund payments.
  • Incorrect HTTP methods — Using POST for the Manifest endpoint or GET for Create Payment. The Gateway sends specific HTTP methods; mismatched handlers return 404 or 405.
  • Missing or zero delay values — Omitting delayToAutoSettle, delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud, or delayToCancel from the Create Payment response, or setting them to zero. This causes immediate auto-capture or auto-cancel, leading to premature settlement or lost payments.
  • Incomplete response shapes — Returning only paymentId and status without authorizationId, tid, nsu, acquirer, etc. The Gateway deserializes all fields and treats missing ones as failures.

Review checklist

  • [ ] Are all 6 payment-flow endpoints implemented (Manifest, Create Payment, Cancel, Capture, Refund, Inbound Request)?
  • [ ] Does each endpoint return the complete response shape with all required fields?
  • [ ] Does the Manifest declare all payment methods the provider actually supports?
  • [ ] Are the correct HTTP methods used (GET for Manifest, POST for everything else)?
  • [ ] Are delayToAutoSettle, delayToAutoSettleAfterAntifraud, and delayToCancel set to sensible non-zero values?
  • [ ] Is the connector served over HTTPS on port 443 with TLS 1.2?
  • [ ] Does the connector respond within 5 seconds for test suite and 20 seconds in production?
  • [ ] Are configuration flow endpoints implemented if merchant self-onboarding is needed?
