    ],

];

Usage

Creating a payment returns an html form ready to POST to payfast. When the customer submits the form they will be redirected to payfast to complete payment. Upon successful payment the customer will be returned to the specified 'return_url' and in the case of a cancellation they will be returned to the specified 'cancel_url'

NOTE

If you want to use subscripions, make sure to set your merchant's passphrase in the config file for this package. It is required for subscriptions.

use Billow\Contracts\PaymentProcessor;

Class PaymentController extends Controller
{

    public function confirmPayment(PaymentProcessor $payfast)
    {
        // Eloqunet example.
        $cartTotal = 9999;
        $order = Order::create([
            'm_payment_id' => '001', // A unique reference for the order.
            'amount'       => $cartTotal
        ]);

        // Build up payment Paramaters.
        $payfast->setBuyer('first name', 'last name', 'email');
        $payfast->setAmount($order->amount);
        $payfast->setItem('item-title', 'item-description');
        $payfast->setMerchantReference($order->m_payment_id);

        // Optionally send confirmation email to seller
        $payfast->setEmailConfirmation();
        $payfast->setConfirmationAddress(env('PAYFAST_CONFIRMATION_EMAIL'));

        // Optionally make this a subscription
        $payfast->setSubscriptionType();    // will default to 1
        $payfast->setFrequency();           // will default to 3 = monthly if not set
        $payfast->setCycles();              // will default to 0 = indefinite if not set

        // Return the payment form.
        return $payfast->paymentForm('Place Order');
    }

}

ITN Responses

Payfast will send a POST request to notify the merchant (You) with a status on the transaction. This will allow you to update your order status based on the appropriate status sent back from Payfast. You are not forced to use the key 'm_payment_id' to store your merchant reference but this is the the key that will be returned back to you from Payfast for further verification.

use Billow\Contracts\PaymentProcessor;

Class PaymentController extends Controller
{

    public function itn(Request $request, PaymentProcessor $payfast)
    {
        // Retrieve the Order from persistance. Eloquent Example.
        $order = Order::where('m_payment_id', $request->get('m_payment_id'))->firstOrFail(); // Eloquent Example

        // Verify the payment status.
        $status = $payfast->verify($request, $order->amount, $order->m_payment_id)->status();

        // Handle the result of the transaction.
        switch( $status )
        {
            case 'COMPLETE': // Things went as planned, update your order status and notify the customer/admins.
                break;
            case 'FAILED': // We've got problems, notify admin and contact Payfast Support.
                break;
            case 'PENDING': // We've got problems, notify admin and contact Payfast Support.
                break;
            default: // We've got problems, notify admin to check logs.
                break;
        }
    }

}

The response variables POSTED back by payfast may be accessed as follows:

 return $payfast->responseVars();

Amounts

The cart total may be set in 2 ways, as a string value:

    $cartTotal = '99.99';

    $payfast->setAmount($cartTotal);

Or as an Integer. In the case of an integer, the cart total must be passed through in cents, as follows:

$cartTotal = 9999; // Laravel Payfast will parse this value and format it accordingly. See sebastianbergmann/money
$payfast->setAmount($cartTotal);

Payment Form

By default the paymentForm() method will return a compiled HTML form including a submit button. There are 3 configurations available for the submit button.

$payfast->paymentForm() // Default Text: 'Pay Now'

$payfast->paymentForm(false) // No submit button, handy for submitting the form via javascript

$payfast->paymentForm('Confirm and Pay') // Override Default Submit Button Text.
