This guide is to inform you on how to use and integrate the Klarna Instalments and Open invoice payment method.

Integration for new transactions must be done with e-Commerce. Maintenance on existing transactions is supported in the back office and via DirectLink and Batch.

1. Integration with e-commerce

In order to use Klarna Instalments, you need to send some additional parameters to our payment page.

Klarna does not support UTF-8 encoding. Therefore, we discourage you to use the UTF-8 payment page (orderstandard_utf8.asp) and always use the ISO payment page (orderstandard.asp) for Klarna implementation.

1.1 Standard Nexi Payengine fields

The following information is required for every transaction.

Field	Format	Description
PSPID	AN, 30	Merchant unique identifier on our system
ORDERID	AN, 40	Merchant unique order reference
AMOUNT	N	Amount multiplied by 100 Including delivery and VAT
CURRENCY	AN, 3	Alpha ISO code of the currency
LANGUAGE	AN, 5	Customer's language
OPERATION	AN, 3	Specifies the Operation code to use. For 'Open Invoice', we request that the merchant always sends the RES value

1.3 Order details

In addition, the merchant also has to submit the order details.

Field	Format	Description
ITEMIDX	AN, 15	Item identification (replace X with a number to send multiple items: ITEMID1, ITEMID2, etc.)
ITEMNAMEX	AN, 40	Item name (replace X with a number to send multiple items: ITEMNAME1, ITEMNAME2, etc.)
ITEMPRICEX	N	Item price (replace X with a number to send multiple items: ITEMPRICE1, ITEMPRICE2, etc.) Excluding VAT "." as separator
ITEMQUANTX	N	Item quantity (replace X with a number to send multiple items: ITEMQUANT1, ITEMQUANT2, etc.)
ITEMVATCODEX	N	Item VAT code (replace X with a number to send multiple items: ITEMVATCODE1, ITEMVATCODE2, etc.)
TAXINCLUDEDX	N (0 / 1)	If this field is equal to 1, the ITEMPRICEX is considered to include VAT, and our system will not calculate the VAT for the item. If this field is equal to 0 (or left blank, or not sent) our system will calculate the VAT for the item based on the ITEMVATCODEX > This feature is recommended as it avoids any issues when rounding off the order line totals. (replace X with a number to send multiple items: TAXINCLUDED1, TAXINCLUDED2, etc.)

More information about these fields can be found in your Nexi Payengine account. Just log in and go to: Support > Integration & user manuals > Technical guides > Parameter Cookbook.

Important: ascending order of line item details for SHA calculation Please take into account that as from 10 line item details the order of the parameters for the SHA calculation may differ from what is expected on your system's side. Where for the calculation of the SHA we normally stress that all parameters should be sorted alphabetically, a "logical" ascending order is put in place for the line item details: - Ascending order: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, etc. - Alphabetical order: 1, 10, 11, 2, 3, 4, etc. (NOT applied)

2. Maintenance operations

In order to be able to perform refund operations, please ensure you have the "Refund" option available for your account. If in doubt, please contact the Nexi Payengine Sales Team.

In the transaction overview, click on the "Advanced" button at the bottom of the screen to see the Refunding options.

When clicking on "Refund", our system will show a detail screen in which you can specify which items are to be refunded.

By default, the Quantity column will contain the order quantities, which means that if you don't change the values, the whole order will be refunded. In order to partially refund a transaction, adapt the quantities (or use the "delete" button for each item) in order to prevent certain articles from being refunded.

Click "Submit" to confirm the refund.

Important note on partial captures/refunds If within a transaction multiple captures are done on similar (same priced) items, a partial refund on those items can only be done if a partial capture on the same items (=belonging to the same invoice) preceded. Also, no partial refunds can have preceded on the same partially captured items. -> If these conditions aren't met, the partial refund will be refused If a partial refund can be linked to different partial captures; as a rule we'll take the last partial capture that was performed in time. When multiple partial captures were done, a full refund is still possible.

2.1 DirectLink

Maintenance operations (refunds and captures) can be performed via DirectLink.

3. Update campaigns (Instalments)

Important When changes occur in the merchant's campaigns on the Klarna platform, these changes are NOT automatically replicated to our platform. This requires a manual action, which has to be performed by one of our employees.

Please contact the ConCardis Sales Team (payengine-service@concardis.com) to have your Klarna campaigns updated on our system.
