Callbacks & Status
Every gateway notifies your server of the payment result. @VerifiedCallback() verifies the gateway's signature with the gateway's handleCallback() and injects a PaymentCallback. Create the app with rawBody: true: signatures are checked against the exact body the gateway sent.
Production setup
For production, follow Handling Webhooks (recommended): verify, store the call, acknowledge immediately, then process it once in the background with retries. The example below handles everything inline to show the API.
Every callback goes through the same steps; KBZ Pay is shown here.
import { Amount, PaymentCallback } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';
import {
AcknowledgeCallback,
VerifiedCallback,
} from '@laranex/nestjs-myanmar-payments';
import { Controller, Post } from '@nestjs/common';
import { OrdersService } from '../orders/orders.service';
@Controller('payments')
export class PaymentsController {
constructor(private readonly orders: OrdersService) {}
@Post('kbz/callback')
@AcknowledgeCallback()
async kbzCallback(
@VerifiedCallback('kbz-pay') callback: PaymentCallback,
): Promise<PaymentCallback> {
const order = await this.orders.findByReference(callback.orderId);
// order.amount is a string such as "10000"; compare by value, not floats
const paid = Amount.parse(order.amount).equals(callback.amount);
if (callback.isSuccessful() && !order.paidAt && paid) {
await this.orders.markAsPaid(order, callback.gatewayReference);
}
return callback;
}
}Gateways post from their own servers, so keep callback routes free of authentication guards and CSRF checks.
Callback Helpers
| API | What it does |
|---|---|
@VerifiedCallback(gateway) | Reads the request, verifies it with the named gateway ('kbz-pay', 'wave-money', 'aya-pay', 'yoma-mmqr', 'cyber-source') and injects the PaymentCallback. A bad signature answers 400 Bad Request before your handler runs; a missing credential answers 500 |
@AcknowledgeCallback() | When the handler returns the PaymentCallback, answers with its acknowledgement (status, headers and body): KBZ Pay's plain success, an empty text/plain 200 for the others. Any other return value passes through with status 200 |
@RawCallback() | Injects the unverified CallbackRequest (body, headers, query), e.g. to store it before verifying it yourself |
this.payments.handleCallback(gateway, request) | Verifies a CallbackRequest or a Nest request with the named gateway; throws SignatureVerificationError |
this.payments.gateway(gateway) | The gateway for a name, e.g. gateway('kbz-pay') is kbzPay() (GATEWAY_NAMES lists them) |
callbackRequestFrom(req) | Builds a CallbackRequest from an Express or Fastify request (@Req()), e.g. for ayaPay().verifyRedirect() |
acknowledge(res, callback) | Sends the acknowledgement on an Express response or a Fastify reply (@Res()); without a callback, an empty 200 |
When you need the request before verifying it (to store rejected calls, for example), take the raw CallbackRequest and verify it by gateway name:
import {
CallbackRequest,
SignatureVerificationError,
} from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';
import {
AcknowledgeCallback,
type GatewayName,
MyanmarPaymentsService,
RawCallback,
} from '@laranex/nestjs-myanmar-payments';
import {
BadRequestException,
Controller,
Param,
Post,
} from '@nestjs/common';
@Controller('payments')
export class GatewayCallbackController {
constructor(private readonly payments: MyanmarPaymentsService) {}
@Post(':gateway/callback')
@AcknowledgeCallback()
async receive(
@Param('gateway') gateway: GatewayName,
@RawCallback() request: CallbackRequest,
) {
try {
return await this.payments.handleCallback(gateway, request);
} catch (error) {
if (error instanceof SignatureVerificationError) {
throw new BadRequestException('invalid signature');
}
throw error;
}
}
}With @Req() and @Res(), verify and acknowledge by hand; this works on Express and Fastify alike:
import {
acknowledge,
type FastifyReplyLike,
type NestRequestLike,
} from '@laranex/nestjs-myanmar-payments';
import { Post, Req, Res } from '@nestjs/common';
@Post('wave/callback')
async waveCallback(
@Req() req: NestRequestLike,
@Res() res: FastifyReplyLike,
): Promise<void> {
const callback = await this.payments.handleCallback('wave-money', req);
// ...
acknowledge(res, callback);
}callbackRequestFrom(), which every helper uses, reads the body from, in order: the exact bytes Nest kept with rawBody: true; the request stream, when no body parser read it (Express, unknown content types); the parsed body, encoded again as JSON or as a form. The CallbackRequest keeps the exact bytes in rawBody and the same body as text in body. The query string comes from the full URL, global prefix included. AYA's browser return is verified with ayaPay().verifyRedirect(), see AYA Pay. A body is read as JSON only when it is a single JSON object; any other body is read as a urlencoded form.
Rules
- Verify, then trust. A callback that fails verification throws
SignatureVerificationError, and so does one whose signed or hashed field holds an object or array instead of a single value, since no gateway signs nested values. Never act on its payload; it carries the unverified data inerror.rawfor logging only. - Check the amount. Compare
callback.amount(as the gateway sent it, a string) with your order before fulfilling. A gateway may format it differently from your order (10000or10000.00);Amount.parse(order.amount).equals(callback.amount)compares decimal strings exactly. - Be idempotent. Gateways retry and may deliver the same callback more than once.
- Acknowledge. Returning the callback from an
@AcknowledgeCallback()handler (oracknowledge(res, callback)) sends the response the gateway expects, e.g. KBZ Pay's plainsuccess. Without it, gateways keep retrying.
PaymentStatus
Every gateway's own status values are mapped onto one set of statuses. The original value stays in callback.gatewayStatus.
| Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
PaymentStatus.Successful | The customer paid. The only status that means money was collected. |
PaymentStatus.Pending | Still in progress or waiting on the customer. |
PaymentStatus.Failed | Attempted and failed or rejected. |
PaymentStatus.Canceled | Canceled or closed before completing. |
PaymentStatus.Expired | The payment window ran out. |
PaymentStatus.Unknown | A status this package does not recognize yet. Inspect gatewayStatus. |
PaymentStatus.isFinal(status) is false for Pending and Unknown. Unknown statuses never throw.
Each gateway page lists its exact mapping.
Status Checks
When a callback is late, ask KBZ Pay, AYA or Yoma directly; Wave Money and CyberSource have no status API.
When a callback is late or missing, ask the gateway directly. Status checks return a PaymentStatusResult with the same status, gatewayStatus, gatewayReference and amount fields.
| Gateway | Call |
|---|---|
| KBZ Pay | this.payments.kbzPay().status(orderId) |
| AYA Payment Gateway | this.payments.ayaPay().status(orderId) |
| Yoma MMQR | this.payments.yomaMmqr().status(payment.reference) |
| Wave Money | No status API: rely on the callback |
| CyberSource | No status API: rely on the callback |
const result = await this.payments.kbzPay().status(`ORDER_${order.id}`);
if (result.isSuccessful()) {
// ...
