1. Create the Authorization Transaction

You can create an authorisation transaction using

Curlec APIs

Registration Link

1.1 Using Razorpay APIs

To create an authorisation transaction using Curlec APIs, you need to:

1.1.1 Create a Customer

Razorpay links recurring tokens to customers via a unique identifier. This unique identifier for the customer is generated using the Customer API.

You can create customers with basic details such as email and contact and use them for various Razorpay offerings. Know more about

Customers

You can create a customer using the below endpoint.

POST

/customers

Once a customer is created, you can create an order for the authorization of the payment.

Request Parameters

name

mandatory

string The customer's name. For example, Gaurav Kumar.

mandatory

string The customer's email address. For example, gaurav.kumar@example.com.

contact

mandatory

string The customer's phone number. For example, 9876543210.

fail_existing

optional

string The request throws an exception by default if a customer with the exact details already exists. You can pass an additional parameter fail_existing to get the existing customer's details in the response. Possible values:

1 (default): If a customer with the same details already exists, throws an error.
0: If a customer with the same details already exists, fetches details of the existing customer.

notes

optional

object Key-value pair that can be used to store additional information about the entity. Maximum 15 key-value pairs, 256 characters (maximum) each. For example, "note_key": "Beam me up Scotty”.

1.1.2. Create an Order

You can use the

Orders API

to create a unique Curlec order_id that is associated with the authorisation transaction. The following endpoint creates an order.

POST

/orders

The subsequent payment frequency is displayed on your customer's PSP. They can select the required frequency while registering for the mandate.

Request Parameters

amount

mandatory

integer Amount, in paise.

currency

customer_id

mandatory

method

mandatory

receipt

optional

string Unique identifier for the order entered by you. For example, Receipt No. 1. This parameter should be mapped to the order_id sent by Razorpay.

notes

optional

object Key-value pair that can be used to store additional information about the entity. Maximum 15 key-value pairs, 256 characters (maximum) each. For example, "note_key": "Beam me up Scotty”.

token

Details related to the authorization such as max amount, frequency and expiry information.

max_amount

mandatory

integer The maximum amount that can be debited in a single charge.

For other categories and MCCs, the minimum value is 100 (₹1) and maximum value is 9999900 (₹99,999).

expire_at

mandatory

integer The Unix timestamp that indicates when the authorisation transaction must expire. The default value is 10 years, and the maximum value allowed is 30 years.

frequency

bimonthly
monthly
quarterly

recurring_value

optional

integer Determines the exact date or range of dates for recurring debits. Possible values are:

1-7 for weekly frequency
1-31 for fortnightly frequency
1-31 for bimonthly frequency
1-31 for monthly frequency
1-31 for quarterly frequency
1-31 for half_yearly frequency
1-31 for yearly frequency and is not applicable for the as_presented frequency.

Watch Out!

If the date entered for the recurring debit is not available for a month, then the last day of the month is considered by default. For example, if the date entered is 31 and the month has only 28 days, then the date 28 is considered.

recurring_type

optional

string Determines when the recurring debit can be done. Possible values are:

For creating an order with recurring_type=on, set the recurring_value parameter to the current date.
before: Recurring debit can happen any time before the specified date.
after: Recurring debit can happen any time after the specified date.

For example, if the frequency is monthly, recurring_value is 17, and recurring_type is before, recurring debit can happen between the month's 1st and 17th. Similarly, if recurring_type is after, recurring debit can only happen on or after the 17th of the month.

Registration Link is an alternate way of creating an authorization transaction. You can create a registration link using the

API

Dashboard

Handy Tips

You do not have to create a customer if you choose the registration link method for creating an authorization transaction.

When you create a registration link, an
invoice
is automatically issued to the customer. They can use this invoice to make the authorization payment.

Handy Tips

You can

use Webhooks to get notifications about successful payments

against a registration link.

A registration link must always have the amount (in Paise) that the customer will be charged when making the authorization payment. For UPI, the amount must be a minimum of ₹1.
