Customer Initiated Transactions
Data flow
The FlexCharge service needs to receive the customer's activity fingerprinting (SenseJS transmission), and a copy of all processed transactions (Transmit API). This is for all transactions, both accepted and declined transactions. This data is needed to build customer profiles.
Each failed payment transaction also needs to trigger real-time our eligibility process (Evaluate API), which returns whether that failed transaction is eligible for our service or not. Eligible transactions are returned with an Order Session Key, which needs to be used to activate the FlexCharge user interface (UI Widget).
Successful transactions are confirmed via a Webhook or via the Outcome API.
