How to Integrate With Samsung Pay?
   

You can Integrate your Application with Samsung Pay by following the steps mentioned below:

  • You will need to login to your merchant account in the PayTabs system, Depending on the country you can find the login link for your merchant account.

  • Navigate to the Developers section from the menu on the left side.

  • From the Certificate Management section, click on Wallet Certificate

  • From Pending SamsungPay requests, click the + sign to generate a new CSR
        

  • And from the popup message click OK, then the CSR should be generated, and you will need to download it for the next step.
       


  • Now, go to the SamsungPay developer portal, and choose Service Management under the My Projects menu
       

       

  • Click the "CREATE NEW SERVICE" button

         

  • You will be able to choose the service environment type, either testing or live, for now, we will go with the testing type for the integration testing, but it should be the same for release/live as well.
       

  • Choose InApp Online Payment Service (Direct, inDirect) option
       

  • Fill up the information of your application, and you should be able to upload the CSR which you have downloaded from your PayTabs merchant portal above, and also choose the PayTabs PG for the Payment Gateway field.
        


        

  • In this next step, if your application was added before, you can just select it, or choose I will upload a new app information, and fill in the required fields.
       

       

  • Once the app is added, you can generate a debug API Key, this Key will be valid for 90 days as per the SamsungPay portal, and you can renew it any time later by editing this service.
        


         

  • The debug key will hold the authorized SamsungPay accounts in order to test the application, for the release/live application this step will not be required.
       

      

  • You will need two pieces of information after you successfully create your application, one is the debug API Key to be added to your application as this hint shows.
       


  • And the next one is the service ID, which you will need to add it to your Application, and also activate the CSR at the PayTabs side as follows.
