REQUIREMENTS
Adyen requires certain permissions/roles to enabled on an account before it can process recurring payments. Please reach out to Adyen support to enable the following:
- “PCI Payments permission”, this should be enabled for the Web Services account you are using for your “Username”
- “Store Token” role must also be enabled, this allows for the tokenization process to happen when a card is stored
SHOPPER REFERENCE
For recurring payments Adyen requires both the token stored for the payment profile and a Shopper Reference. Advanced Billing will automatically create the reference when storing the payment profile, it will be in the following format:
chargify_customer.id
– so if the payment profile is for the customer who has an id of 1234, the shopper_reference
will be chargify_1234
.
This will show on each recurring transaction in Adyen and we store it in customer_vault_token
on the Payment Profile in Advanced Billing.
