Ecommpay is a global payments company that helps online businesses accept and manage payments. It operates in multiple regions and industries, providing a platform for merchants and payment service providers.

Setup

Contact Ecommpay to obtain sandbox credentials for your region. Then, in the Gr4vy dashboard, add your Ecommpay connection using your Project ID and Secret key.

Connector configuration

After setting up your Ecommpay connector in the dashboard, configure how transactions are routed to it. Choose one of the following options:
  • Using Flow - Configure Ecommpay as the target connector in Flow to automatically route card transactions to this connector
  • Using the API - Explicitly set the payment_service_id parameter to the Ecommpay connector ID when creating transactions. This overrides any Flow routing rules.
The connector ID can be found in the dashboard under Connections -> Configured connections.

Tokenization callbacks

Your Ecommpay contact must enable tokenization for your project. After it is enabled, set up a dedicated tokenization callback. Gr4vy automatically handles Ecommpay’s transaction webhooks, but tokenization results use a separate callback. To configure the tokenization callback:
  1. In the Ecommpay dashboard, go to Settings -> Callbacks.
  2. Create a new callback using the synchronization URL from your Ecommpay connector settings in the Gr4vy dashboard.
  3. Set the callback result type to “tokenize.”

Credentials

When setting up Ecommpay in the dashboard, configure the following credentials.
  • Project ID - The numeric project identifier from your Ecommpay dashboard.
  • Secret key - The secret key from your Ecommpay dashboard.

Limitations

  • Asynchronous processing - Ecommpay acknowledges requests immediately and completes transactions asynchronously. Gr4vy polls for status updates after the initial call, sending up to three checks at roughly the 1, 3, and 5 second marks. Webhooks are monitored as a fail-safe. One transaction can appear as multiple API requests plus a webhook event in the dashboard.
  • CVV required - A CVV is required for all card payments, except for stored credential follow-up payments and merchant-initiated transactions where the initial payment included a CVV.
  • Closed loop - Ecommpay can only process card tokens generated through Ecommpay.
  • 3DS required - Ecommpay requires 3D Secure (3DS) authentication for all card payments. Use Gr4vy hosted 3DS to satisfy this requirement.
This is a closed-loop connector. Some failover scenarios are limited. For details, see Open-loop versus closed-loop.

Integration

To accept card payments with Ecommpay, use one of Gr4vy’s client-side integration methods to securely collect card details. Due to PCI compliance requirements, card data should never be sent directly to your servers. You can integrate using:
  • Embed - A pre-built, customizable payment form that handles the complete payment flow
  • Secure Fields - Embed card input fields for building custom payment forms while maintaining PCI compliance
  • Mobile SDKs - Native SDKs for iOS, Android, React Native, and other platforms
These methods handle card data collection and tokenization. Once the card details are collected and tokenized, create a transaction through the Gr4vy API, which routes the payment to your configured Ecommpay connection based on your Flow rules or explicit payment_service_id parameter.

Required fields

Ecommpay requires the following fields in the billing_details of a card payment:
  • Email address - Required for checkout.
  • Phone number - Required for checkout.

Payouts (travel MCC)

The Gr4vy integration supports payouts for travel-related merchant category codes when enabled for your Ecommpay account. For setup details and API usage, see the Payouts overview.
