With this service, the calling app can request that debit access to a customer’s wallet be disabled. Apps will collect authorisation details and forward to OnePipe to execute, OnePipe will in turn forward to the provider’s dedicated implementation. For this service, apps are required to obtain consent to block wallet from the customer (likely at a prior time before the time the hold is required).

Before you proceed: Please read this.

Commercial model

Host clients will simply charge a fee to the calling app, and share it with the provider, OnePipe and ISO.

Special configuration notes

All providers of this service should implement OTP, but support the configuration of otp_override such that based on this configuration, they could be instructed to bypass the OTP requirement for an app.

Settlement & fees model

This service can only support one mode.

Process flows

Sequence of calls

1. App calls /transact with the relevant auth details
2. Provider responds with WaitingForOTP or PendingValidation as may be required
3. App calls /transact/validate to supply OTP
4. Provider responds with any of the completion codes Successful or Failed. If successful, provider also has to respond with a provider_token
Blocking a wallet
1. App calls /transact with auth.type set to provider_token and passing a prior received token.
2. Provider responds with any of the completion codes Successful or Failed.
