PayPal Payflow Pro Vault payment method

PayPal Payflow Pro Vault payment method processes credit and debit card payments using information stored in the vault. This payment method is available for customers of the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

The following conditions must be true to use this payment method:

• The shopper must be a logged-in customer.

• The customer must have previously saved their payment information in the vault.

You cannot use this payment method if the customer decides to use a credit or debit card that is not stored in the vault.

If the customer's stored payment information becomes outdated, use the deletePaymentToken mutation to remove the token. Then perform the actions described in the PayPal Payflow Pro payment method to generate a new token and process the order.

Payflow Pro workflow

The following diagram shows the workflow for placing an order when Payflow Pro Vault is the selected payment method.

1. Use the customerPaymentTokens query to retrieve the payment tokens the customer has stored in the vault.

2. The application returns an array of payment tokens.

3. The client renders the token information, and the customer selects a payment method.

   When the customer selects a stored payment method, the PWA uses the setPaymentMethodOnCart mutation to set the payment method to payflowpro_cc_vault. The vaulted public hash is passed in the payflowpro_cc_vault object.

4. The application returns a Cart object.

5. The client runs the placeOrder mutation.

6. The application sends an authorization request to the gateway.

7. The gateway sends the response to Magento.

8. The application creates an order and sends an order ID in response to the placeOrder mutation.

Additional Payment information

When you set the payment method to Payflow Pro Vault in the setPaymentMethodOnCart mutation, the payment_method object must contain a payflowpro_cc_vault object, which contains the customer's public hash.
