Payment workflow
The following diagram explains workflow for PayU payments.
Step 1: Create a payu payment type resource and get the ID of the resource back.
Step 2: Create a charge with create/v1/payment/charges and receive back a pending transaction with a redirect URL for the customer.
Step 3: Now forward the end customer to the PayU checkout page.
Step 4: On the checkout page of PayU, the customer selects the bank for making the payment (bank transfer). After a successful selection, the payment has to be confirmed before the customer gets redirected to the merchant shop.
Step 5: After the return to the merchant’s shop, fetch the latest transaction information from the payment API.
