​
Integration

For iDEAL, the default integration for Buckaroo is through a redirect to a hosted payments page.

​
Redirect integration

Start by creating a new transaction with the following required fields. 
var transaction = await client.Transactions.CreateAsync(
  transactionCreate: new TransactionCreate()
  {
    Amount = 1299,
    Currency = "EUR",
    Country = "NL",
    PaymentMethod =
      TransactionCreatePaymentMethod.CreateCheckoutSessionWithUrlPaymentMethodCreate(
        new RedirectPaymentMethodCreate()
        {
          Method = "ideal",
          RedirectUrl = "https://example.com/callback",
        }
      ),
  }
);
After the transaction is created, the API response includes payment_method.approval_url and the buyer_approval_pending status. 
{
  "type": "transaction",
  "id": "ea1efdd0-20f9-44d9-9b0b-0a3d71e9b625",
  "payment_method": {
    "type": "payment-method",
    "approval_url": "https://cdn.sandbox.spider.gr4vy.app/connectors/buckaroo/apm.html?token=..."
  },
  "method": "ideal"
}
Redirect the buyer to the approval_url (open in a browser or Webview) so they can complete authentication and approve the payment. After approval the buyer is redirected to the redirect_url you provided when creating the transaction. Do not rely solely on the redirect - either poll the transaction or (recommended) rely on webhooks to detect the final status (for example capture_succeeded or failure states).
