iOS Deep Linking Integration

Prerequisites

Before you get started with your implementation, read the integration overview to learn about integration and required configuration.

You are onboarded to our sandbox enviroment as a merchant and has a valid TPN.

Setup Testing Environment

Before setting up the testing device

  • Use a separate device for testing.

  • Only use the credentials given to you throughout the testing process.

To get sandbox credentials, contact support@dejavoosystems.com

  • Avoid changing the account during testing.

  • Don't change the device's date and time.

  • These rules apply only to the testing environment, not production.

Watch this video for a visual walkthrough of the steps

To Develop iOS Application, Create a new iOS project or use the existing project and configure the below app setup.

Initially, we will use the new TPN. You must accept the Apple Tap-on-Phone Terms and Conditions before proceeding with the Tap-on-Pay transaction.

Supported Device's & version's

  • OS Version Above 16.9
  • Tap to Pay on iPhone requires iPhone Xs or later.

Configure the URL Scheme

Keys demo-AppLink and iPosgo-AppLink are case sensitive.

  1. Configure the SDK

Install the Applications

To install Demo App and iPosGo!! Application via link. I’ll create a diawi Link for testing purposes using this url to obtain the UDID for your device. I can now share the source file of the Demo application so that you can see how it is implemented.

https://get.udid.io/ (opens in a new tab)

TPN Register

TPN register is used to download the parameters to configure the merchant configuration data from the backend application portal.

FAQ

  • What is a TPN?

A Terminal Profile Number (TPN) is a special code given to a payment terminal or POS device. It helps payment solution providers recognize and set up the terminal’s specific features and abilities.

  • Which iPhones and operating systems are compatible for Tap to Pay on iPhone?

Tap to Pay on iPhone requires iPhone XS or later, and the latest version of iOS. Update to the latest iOS here: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204204 (opens in a new tab)

  • How do I know if the customer’s payment card is contactless?

The front or back of contactless cards have an EMV® Contactless Indicator.

  • Does Tap to Pay on iPhone work on an iPad?

Tap to Pay on iPhone is only available on an iPhone.

  • What if a customer does not have a contactless card?

In cases where the customer does not have a contactless card during the transaction, the merchant has the option to present a QR code and request the customer scan it using their smartphone and manually enter their card details.

  • What best practices can help prevent "invalid reader token" error?

A: If the JWT token has expired, it throws an error. In case TPN accepts the terms and conditions on another device, this occurs.

  • In development mode on the UAT version, what type of Apple account should I be logged into on my testing device?

A: Using a UAT version, you can use a Sandbox Account on your testing device to proceed.

  • Why does the app crash when importing our SDK?

A: As mentioned in our integration documentation, after dragging and dropping our SDK into your project, you must enable the "Embed & Sign" in Xcode’s general settings.

  • How can they resolve the integrity error that appears when trying to install the app?

A: As mentioned in our integration documentation, you can provide UDIDs for testing the devices to resolve this issue.

  • How do I start the Integration Process ?

A: Please should go through our integration documentation and contact your Dejavoo representative to guide you throughout the process.
