# 1. Build Integration

> Given below are the steps to integrate with the Import Flow APIs.

## 1.1 Create a Customer

Creating a customer generates a unique `customer_id` by collecting basic details such as name, email, and contact details. This `customer_id` must be included when creating a payment request to link the payment to the customer. Use the following API to create a customer.

You can try out our APIs on the Razorpay Postman Public Workspace. Fork the workspace and test the APIs with your [Test API Keys](/api/authentication#generate-api-keys).

/customers

## 1.2 Create an Order

After a customer is created, an order needs to be generated using the Orders API. This order contains details such as the payment amount, currency, customer details, tax-related information and other custom notes. After the order is created, an `order_id` is generated, for example, `order_NGrgEcmYJsfUyl`. You must pass this `order_id` in the checkout code to associate this order with the payment. Learn more about [Order and Payment states](/payments/orders#order-states).

### 1.3.2 Create a Payment Using UPI

There are 2 UPI flows available for S2S.

* **Intent Flow:** When a customer selects the UPI payment app on checkout, the app is launched automatically on the mobile device. Customers need not enter VPA or phone numbers as these details are prefilled and submitted along with the other payment details.
* **Collect Flow:** Customers enter their VPAs, open the respective UPI apps and complete the payment on their mobile devices.

<Warning>
  **UPI Collect Flow Deprecated**

  According to NPCI guidelines, the UPI Collect flow is being deprecated effective 28 February 2026. Customers can no longer make payments or register UPI mandates by manually entering VPA/UPI id/mobile numbers.

  **Exemptions:** UPI Collect will continue to be supported for:

  * MCC 6012 & 6211 (IPO and secondary market transactions).
  * iOS mobile app and mobile web transactions.
  * UPI Mandates (execute/modify/revoke operations only)
  * eRupi vouchers.
  * PACB businesses (cross-border/international payments).

  **Action Required:**

  * If you are a new Razorpay user, use [UPI Intent](/payments/payment-gateway/s2s-integration/payment-methods/upi/intent).
  * If you are an existing Razorpay user not covered by exemptions, you must migrate to UPI Intent or UPI QR code to continue accepting UPI payments. For detailed migration steps, refer to the [migration documentation](/announcements/upi-collect-migration/s2s-integration).

### Response Parameters

If the payment request is valid, the response contains the following fields.

`razorpay_payment_id`
: `string` Unique identifier of the payment. Present for all responses.

`next`
: `array` A list of action objects available to you to continue the payment process. Present when the payment requires further processing.

`action`
: `string` An indication of the next step available to you to continue the payment process. The value here is `redirect`. Use this URL to redirect customer to the bank page.

`url`

<Warning>
  **Watch Out!**

  * The `invoice_number` field is mandatory for all payment methods. Ensure each payment has a unique invoice number.
  * Refer to the [Payment Methods](/payments/payment-gateway/s2s-integration/payment-methods) section for other payment options request parameters.

  Following payment methods are supported under the Import Flow:

  * Netbanking
  * UPI
  * Cards (Debit and Credit)
  * [Recurring](/payments/international-payments/accept-international-payments-from-indian-customers/s2s-integration/recurring-payments)

  For recurring payments, additional integration is needed. Cards, UPI, and UPI with TPV are supported as a payment methods.
</Warning>

## 1.4 Handle Payment Success and Error Events

Once the payment is completed by the customer, a `POST` request is made to the `callback_url` provided in the payment request. The data contained in this request will depend on whether the payment was a **success** or a **failure**.

### Success Callback

If the payment made by the customer is successful, the following fields are sent:

* `razorpay_payment_id`
* `razorpay_order_id`
* `razorpay_signature`

```json: Callback Example theme={null}
{
  "razorpay_payment_id": "pay_29QQoUBi66xm2f",
  "razorpay_order_id": "order_9A33XWu170gUtm",
  "razorpay_signature": "9ef4dffbfd84f1318f6739a3ce19f9d85851857ae648f114332d8401e0949a3d"
}
```

### Failure Callback

If the payment has failed, the callback will contain details of the error. Refer to [Errors](/errors) for details.

## 1.5 Verify Payment Signature

Signature verification is a mandatory step to ensure that the callback is sent by Razorpay. The `razorpay_signature` contained in the callback can be regenerated by your system and verified as follows.

Create a string for hashing by combining the "razorpay\_payment\_id" from the callback and the Order ID generated in the initial step, separated by a `|`. Proceed to hash this string using SHA256 alongside your API Secret.

```
generated_signature = hmac_sha256(order_id + "|" + razorpay_payment_id, secret);

if (generated_signature == razorpay_signature) {
    payment is successful
}
```

### Generate Signature on your Server

### Sample code

````java: Java theme={null}
/**
* This class defines common routines for generating
* authentication signatures for Razorpay Webhook requests.
*/
public class Signature
{
    private static final String HMAC_SHA256_ALGORITHM = "HmacSHA256";
    /**
    * Computes RFC 2104-compliant HMAC signature.
    * * @param data
    * The data to be signed.
    * @param key
    * The signing key.
    * @return
    * The Base64-encoded RFC 2104-compliant HMAC signature.
    * @throws
    * java.security.SignatureException when signature generation fails
    */
    public static String calculateRFC2104HMAC(String data, String secret)
    throws java.security.SignatureException
    {
        String result;
        try {

            // get an hmac_sha256 key from the raw secret bytes
            SecretKeySpec signingKey = new SecretKeySpec(secret.getBytes(), HMAC_SHA256_ALGORITHM);

            // get an hmac_sha256 Mac instance and initialize with the signing key
            Mac mac = Mac.getInstance(HMAC_SHA256_ALGORITHM);
            mac.init(signingKey);

            // compute the hmac on input data bytes
            byte[] rawHmac = mac.doFinal(data.getBytes());

            // base64-encode the hmac
            result = DatatypeConverter.printHexBinary(rawHmac).toLowerCase();

        } catch (Exception e) {
            throw new SignatureException("Failed to generate HMAC : " + e.getMessage());
        }
        return result;
    }
}

## 1.6 Verify Payment Status

<Info>
  **Handy Tips**

  On the Razorpay Dashboard, ensure that the payment status is `captured`. Refer to the payment capture settings page to know how to [capture payments automatically](/payments/payments/capture-settings).
</Info>

### You can track the payment status in three ways:

To verify the payment status from the Razorpay Dashboard:

1. Log in to the Razorpay Dashboard and navigate to **Transactions** → **Payments**.
2. Check if a **Payment Id** has been generated and note the status. In case of a successful payment, the status is marked as **Captured**.

You can use Razorpay webhooks to configure and receive notifications when a specific event occurs. When one of these events is triggered, we send an HTTP POST payload in JSON to the webhook's configured URL. Know how to [set up webhooks.](/webhooks/setup-edit-payments)

#### Example

If you have subscribed to the `order.paid` webhook event, you will receive a notification every time a customer pays you for an order.

[Poll Payment APIs](/api/payments/fetch-all-payments) to check the payment status.
