Hitpay

Step 2: Choose Frontend Approach

API Basics

Authentication

const headers = {
  'X-BUSINESS-API-KEY': process.env.HITPAY_API_KEY,
  'Content-Type': 'application/json',
};

Get API keys from Settings → Payment Gateway → API Keys in your HitPay dashboard.

Frontend Option A: Redirect (Cards)

Best for card payments or when you want HitPay to handle the full checkout UI.

Flow

1. Backend creates payment request
2. Frontend redirects to response.url
3. Customer pays on HitPay hosted page
4. Customer returns to your redirect_url
5. Backend confirms via webhook

Next.js API Route

// app/api/payments/create/route.ts
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const { amount, currency, orderId } = await request.json();

  const response = await fetch('https://api.sandbox.hit-pay.com/v1/payment-requests', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'X-BUSINESS-API-KEY': process.env.HITPAY_API_KEY!,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      amount,
      currency,
      payment_methods: ['card'],
      reference_number: orderId,
      redirect_url: `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL}/payment/complete`,
      webhook: `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL}/api/webhooks/hitpay`,
    }),
  });

  const data = await response.json();
  return NextResponse.json({ url: data.url, paymentRequestId: data.id });
}

Frontend Component

// components/CheckoutButton.tsx
'use client';

export function CheckoutButton({ amount, currency, orderId }: Props) {
  const handleCheckout = async () => {
    const response = await fetch('/api/payments/create', {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
      body: JSON.stringify({ amount, currency, orderId }),
    });

    const { url } = await response.json();
    window.location.href = url; // Redirect to HitPay
  };

  return <button onClick={handleCheckout}>Pay with Card</button>;
}

Frontend Option B: Embedded QR Code

Best for QR-based payments where customer stays on your site.

Flow

1. Backend creates payment request with generate_qr: true
2. Frontend renders QR code from response.qr_code_data
3. Customer scans with payment app
4. Frontend polls for status or listens for webhook
5. Backend confirms via webhook

Next.js API Route

// app/api/payments/create-qr/route.ts
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const { amount, currency, orderId, paymentMethod } = await request.json();

  const response = await fetch('https://api.sandbox.hit-pay.com/v1/payment-requests', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'X-BUSINESS-API-KEY': process.env.HITPAY_API_KEY!,
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      amount,
      currency,
      payment_methods: [paymentMethod],
      generate_qr: true,
      reference_number: orderId,
      webhook: `${process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_URL}/api/webhooks/hitpay`,
    }),
  });

  const data = await response.json();
  return NextResponse.json({
    paymentRequestId: data.id,
    qrCodeData: data.qr_code_data,
  });
}

Frontend Component

// components/QRPayment.tsx
'use client';

import { useEffect, useRef } from 'react';
import QRCode from 'qrcode';

export function QRPayment({ amount, currency, orderId, paymentMethod }: Props) {
  const canvasRef = useRef<HTMLCanvasElement>(null);

  useEffect(() => {
    const createQR = async () => {
      const response = await fetch('/api/payments/create-qr', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
        body: JSON.stringify({ amount, currency, orderId, paymentMethod }),
      });

      const { qrCodeData } = await response.json();

      if (canvasRef.current && qrCodeData) {
        await QRCode.toCanvas(canvasRef.current, qrCodeData, { width: 256 });
      }
    };

    createQR();
  }, [amount, currency, orderId, paymentMethod]);

  return (
    <div>
      <canvas ref={canvasRef} />
      <p>Scan with your payment app</p>
    </div>
  );
}

Frontend Option C: Payment Method Selector

Best for supporting both cards and QR methods.

Frontend Component

// components/PaymentMethodSelector.tsx
'use client';

import { useState } from 'react';
import { QRPayment } from './QRPayment';

const PAYMENT_METHODS = [
  { id: 'card', label: 'Credit/Debit Card', type: 'redirect' },
  { id: 'paynow_online', label: 'PayNow', type: 'qr' },
  { id: 'grabpay_direct', label: 'GrabPay', type: 'qr' },
  { id: 'shopee_pay', label: 'ShopeePay', type: 'qr' },
];

export function PaymentMethodSelector({ amount, currency, orderId }: Props) {
  const [selected, setSelected] = useState<string | null>(null);

  const handlePayment = async (method: typeof PAYMENT_METHODS[0]) => {
    if (method.type === 'redirect') {
      const response = await fetch('/api/payments/create', {
        method: 'POST',
        headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
        body: JSON.stringify({ amount, currency, orderId }),
      });
      const { url } = await response.json();
      window.location.href = url;
    } else {
      setSelected(method.id);
    }
  };

  if (selected) {
    return (
      <QRPayment
        amount={amount}
        currency={currency}
        orderId={orderId}
        paymentMethod={selected}
      />
    );
  }

  return (
    <div>
      <h3>Select Payment Method</h3>
      {PAYMENT_METHODS.map((method) => (
        <button key={method.id} onClick={() => handlePayment(method)}>
          {method.label}
        </button>
      ))}
    </div>
  );
}

Webhook Handling

Always verify webhook signatures before processing. See references/webhook-events.md for details.

// app/api/webhooks/hitpay/route.ts
import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';
import crypto from 'crypto';

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const body = await request.text();
  const signature = request.headers.get('Hitpay-Signature');

  // Verify signature
  const expectedSignature = crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', process.env.HITPAY_SALT!)
    .update(body)
    .digest('hex');

  if (signature !== expectedSignature) {
    return NextResponse.json({ error: 'Invalid signature' }, { status: 401 });
  }

  const payload = JSON.parse(body);

  // Process payment confirmation
  if (payload.status === 'completed') {
    // Mark order as paid
    await markOrderAsPaid(payload.reference_number);
  }

  return NextResponse.json({ received: true });
}

Checking Payment Status

See references/payment-request-api.md for the full API reference.

// app/api/payments/[id]/route.ts
export async function GET(
  request: Request,
  { params }: { params: { id: string } }
) {
  const response = await fetch(
    `https://api.sandbox.hit-pay.com/v1/payment-requests/${params.id}`,
    {
      headers: {
        'X-BUSINESS-API-KEY': process.env.HITPAY_API_KEY!,
      },
    }
  );

  const data = await response.json();
  return NextResponse.json(data);
}

Refunds

See references/refunds.md for full details.

// app/api/payments/[id]/refund/route.ts
export async function POST(
  request: Request,
  { params }: { params: { id: string } }
) {
  const { amount } = await request.json();

  const response = await fetch(
    `https://api.sandbox.hit-pay.com/v1/payment-requests/${params.id}/refund`,
    {
      method: 'POST',
      headers: {
        'X-BUSINESS-API-KEY': process.env.HITPAY_API_KEY!,
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
      },
      body: JSON.stringify({ amount }),
    }
  );

  const data = await response.json();
  return NextResponse.json(data);
}
