Accept Hosted Step-by-Step

Accept Hosted provides a fully hosted solution for processing payment transactions. Authorize.Net takes care of the payment form, the transaction itself, and the receipt generation (optional). This example demonstrates using an embedded iframe to display the page, but you could also use a lightbox-style popup iframe. See our developer documentation for more details.
These steps are reflected in this sample app, which you can set up and run yourself.

Step 1. Request a Secure Form Token

In this step we will request an Accept Hosted form token using the Authorize.Net API.
You can see the details of the API request and interactively try out the call in our [sandbox API explorer] (http://developer.authorize.net/api/reference/#payment-transactions-get-an-accept-payment-page ).

NOTE: This should be a fully authenticated server-side call for your application. For example, if you had a .NET application this call would be in the code behind .cs files; for a mobile app this could be in your node.js backend, and so forth.

In this Accept sample application's respository you can find the sample code for this API request in getHostedPaymentForm.php.

With this method you can do the following:

  • Specify how you want the payment form to look and behave. For example, you can enable the billing address, configure the text on buttons, and so forth.

  • Provide any information you want to be prepopulated on the form or passed along with the payment. See the Requesting a Token section on our [Feature Details page] (http://developer.authorize.net/api/reference/features/accept_hosted.html).

The code example below shows the response from the getHostedPaymentPage API request. The important response data is the token element, which you will use this for the next step:

<getHostedPaymentPageResponse>
  <messages>
    <resultCode>Ok</resultCode>
    <message>
      <code>I00001</code>
      <text>Successful.</text>
    </message>
  </messages>
  <token>

  </token>
</getHostedPaymentPageResponse>

Step 2. Incorporate the Accept Hosted Form into Your Payment Flow

In this step we will embed the payment form in a web page using an iframe and complete the payment transaction.

See our sample code in this Accept Sample application's respository: index.php.

Here's an example of the iframe which will contain the Accept Hosted page:

<iframe id="load_payment" class="embed-responsive-item" name="load_payment" width="100%" height="650px" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" hidden="true">
</iframe>

You could then load the Accept Hosted form into your iframe like this:

<form id="send_hptoken" action="https://test.authorize.net/payment/payment" method="post" target="load_payment" >
	<input type="hidden" name="token" value="<?php echo $hostedPaymentResponse->token ?>" />
</form>

NOTE: The token passed to Accept Hosted is generated in Step 1 above.

The Accept Hosted page should appear in your iframe like this:

Step 3. Listen for Accept Hosted Messages

In this step we will demonstrate how to resize your container iframe based on resize messages from the Accept Hosted form.

To securely communicate between our Accept Hosted form and your web page, we need a communicator page which will be hosted on your site alongside your checkout/payment page. You can provide the URL of the communicator page in your token request, which will allow Authorize.Net to embed the communicator page in the payment form, and send JavaScript messaging through your communicator page to a listener script on your main page.

For example, in this sample application, see the sample communicator page, IFrameCommunicator.html. You can use this same communicator page in your application.

Pass the URL of your communicator page when you request a token (Step 1 above). For example:

		<setting>
			<settingName>hostedPaymentIFrameCommunicatorUrl</settingName>
			<settingValue>{"url":"https://www.mystore.com/checkout/IFrameCommunicator.html"}</settingValue>
		</setting>

Once you have the communicator page in place, you can listen for the messages in your main page. See index.php in our sample.

An important message to receive is the resizeWindow message. Because our Accept Hosted form is responsive, we need to let your application know when the iframe should be resized. For example, when the form becomes single column on a phone, the height is increased and this height increase is sent in a ResizeWindow message.

In our sample below, you can see where the height parameter is checked and then the iframe outerHeight is increased accordingly:

	CommunicationHandler.onReceiveCommunication = function (argument) {
		params = parseQueryString(argument.qstr)
		parentFrame = argument.parent.split('/')[4];
		console.log(params);
		console.log(parentFrame);
		//alert(params['height']);
		$frame = null;
		switch(parentFrame){
			case "manage" 		: $frame = $("#load_profile");break;
			case "payment"		: $frame = $("#load_payment");break;
		}
		switch(params['action']){
			case "resizeWindow" : if( parentFrame== "manage" && parseInt(params['height'])<1150) params['height']=1150;
					      if( parentFrame== "payment" && parseInt(params['height'])<1000) params['height']=1000;
					      $frame.outerHeight(parseInt(params['height']));
					      break;

Step 4. Display a custom receipt Using the Transaction Response

In this step we will receive the payment form's response via the iFrameCommunicatorURL and use that response data to present a custom receipt.

Now that you have the communication set up (Step 3) it is simple to receive the transactResponse message:

case "transactResponse": 	
   			$('#HostedPayment').attr('src','about:blank');
   			var transResponse = JSON.parse(params['response']);
   			$("#HPConfirmation p").html("<strong><b> Success.. !! </b></strong> <br><br> Your payment of <b>$"+transResponse.totalAmount+"</b> for <b>"+transResponse.orderDescription+"</b> has been Processed Successfully on <b>"+transResponse.dateTime+"</b>.<br><br>Generated Order Invoice Number is :  <b>"+transResponse.orderInvoiceNumber+"</b><br><br> Happy Shopping with us ..");
   			$("#HPConfirmation p b").css({"font-size":"22px", "color":"green"});
   			$("#HPConfirmation").modal("toggle");

In the sample app we've used the data to present a simple confirmation and receipt dialog:

<div class="modal fade" id="HPConfirmation" role="dialog">
   <div class="modal-dialog" style="display: inline-block; vertical-align: middle;">
      <div class="modal-content">
         <div class="modal-header">
         <button id="closeAcceptConfirmationHeaderBtn" type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
         <h4 class="modal-title"><b>Payment Confirmation</b></h4>
         </div>
     <div class="modal-body" style="background-color: antiquewhite">
          <p style="font-size: 16px; font-style: italic; padding:10px; color: #444; text-align: center"></p>
     </div>
         <div class="modal-footer">
        <button id="closeAcceptConfirmationFooterBtn" type="button" class="btn btn-success" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
         </div>
     </div> 
</div>
