Yoma MMQR ​

Yoma MMQR is Yoma Bank's MMQR gateway: it issues ready-made QR images that customers scan with any MMQR wallet.

CallWhat it doesReturns

Responses shows what Yoma MMQR puts in each result.

How it works ​

Yoma checks each order out once, then issues QR codes that each stay payable for 120 seconds.

Initiating a Payment ​

ts
import type { YomaMmqrPaymentData } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';
import { MyanmarPaymentsService } from '@laranex/nestjs-myanmar-payments';
import { Controller, Param, Post, Render } from '@nestjs/common';

import { OrdersService } from '../orders/orders.service';

@Controller('checkout')
export class YomaMmqrCheckoutController {
  constructor(
    private readonly payments: MyanmarPaymentsService,
    private readonly orders: OrdersService,
  ) {}

  @Post(':id/yoma-mmqr')
  @Render('payments/qr')
  async initiate(@Param('id') id: string) {
    const order = await this.orders.findOrFail(id);

    const data: YomaMmqrPaymentData = {
      orderId: `ORDER_${order.id}`,
      amount: 10000,
      description: `Order #${order.id}`,
    };

    const payment = await this.payments.yomaMmqr().initiate(data);

    await this.orders.update(order, { qrReference: payment.reference });

    return { image: payment.qrImageDataUri() };
  }
}

YomaMmqrPaymentData ​

ParameterTypeRequiredRules
orderIdstringYesUnique order number, at most 20 characters
amountAmountInputYesWhole kyat, greater than 0, e.g. 10000 or Amount.kyat(10000). Yoma documents no decimals or currency
descriptionstringYesAt most 50 characters

QR Image ​

qrImage is an already rendered base64 PNG of the payment slip: display it as is, no QR library needed.

Handling Callbacks ​

ts
import { PaymentCallback } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';
import {
  AcknowledgeCallback,
  VerifiedCallback,
} from '@laranex/nestjs-myanmar-payments';
import { Controller, Post } from '@nestjs/common';

@Controller('payments')
export class YomaMmqrCallbackController {
  @Post('yoma/callback')
  @AcknowledgeCallback()
  handle(
    @VerifiedCallback('yoma-mmqr') callback: PaymentCallback,
  ): PaymentCallback {
    if (callback.isSuccessful()) {
      // callback.orderId is your orderNumber
    }

    return callback;
  }
}

A bad signature answers 400 before the handler runs. The callback URL is registered with Yoma, not sent per order. When YOMA_MMQR_WEBHOOK_SECRET is set, callbacks must carry it in the X-Webhook-Secret header. The hash is checked with HMAC-SHA256 keyed with your order number plus YOMA_MMQR_WEBHOOK_HASHKEY.

QR Lifetime and Renewal ​

A QR is payable for 120 seconds (YomaMmqr.QR_LIFETIME_SECONDS); payment.expiresAt tells you when. Yoma accepts each order number once, so never call initiate() again for the same order. Renew the QR instead:

ts
const payment = await this.payments
  .yomaMmqr()
  .renewQr(`ORDER_${order.id}`);

await this.orders.update(order, { qrReference: payment.reference });

Each renewal retires the previous reference; only the newest one answers status checks.

Status Checks ​

ts
const result = await this.payments.yomaMmqr().status(order.qrReference);

if (result.isSuccessful()) {
  // the QR was paid
}

status() takes the QR's reference, not your orderId. An expired QR returns PaymentStatus.Expired instead of throwing.

Responses ​

What Yoma MMQR puts in each property. See Results and PaymentCallback & Status for the full classes. raw holds plain JavaScript values, with JSON numbers kept as their exact text in a string (1000.50 stays '1000.50').

initiate() → QrPayment ​

Property / MethodYoma MMQR value
orderIdYour orderId (Yoma orderNumber)
qrStringAlways undefined
qrImageYoma qrString, a base64 PNG of the payment slip. Always set
expiresAtNow + 120 seconds (YomaMmqr.QR_LIFETIME_SECONDS). Always set
referenceYoma refLabel, e.g. 100000083331. Pass it to status(). Always set
rawThe qr/generate response: refLabel, qrString, errorCode (null), errorDescription
qrImageDataUri()data:image/png;base64,…

initiate() checks the order out (payment/checkout), then generates its first QR; the result comes from the generate call.

renewQr() → QrPayment ​

The same values as initiate() for the orderId you passed, with a new qrImage, reference and expiresAt. The previous reference stops answering status checks.

status() → PaymentStatusResult ​

PropertyYoma MMQR value
orderIdAlways undefined: Yoma only returns the reference
statuspaymentStatus mapped, see Statuses. Expired for a QR EXPIRED error
gatewayStatusYoma paymentStatus, trimmed, e.g. SUCCESS. QR EXPIRED for an expired QR
gatewayReferenceYoma refLabel, falling back to the reference you passed. Always set
amountAlways undefined: Yoma's status response has no amount
rawThe payment/check-status response: refLabel, paymentStatus, errorCode, errorDescription

handleCallback() → PaymentCallback ​

Property / MethodYoma MMQR value
orderIdYoma orderNumber (your orderId)
statusstatus mapped case-insensitively, see Statuses
gatewayStatusYoma status, trimmed, as sent, e.g. success
gatewayReferenceAlways undefined: Yoma's callback has no reference
amountAlways undefined: Yoma's callback has no amount
rawThe verified body: orderNumber, status, hashValue
acknowledgementHTTP 200, empty body, Content-Type: text/plain

@AcknowledgeCallback() (or acknowledge(res, callback)) sends acknowledgement. The gateway's handleCallback() takes a CallbackRequest; this.payments.handleCallback('yoma-mmqr', request) also accepts a Nest request.

Statuses ​

Access Tokens ​

Yoma authenticates with an OAuth token that lasts hours. The package caches it in the token cache (see Configuration), shares one token request between concurrent calls, and fetches a new one, retrying once, when Yoma answers 401. The shared token request is bounded by the HTTP client timeout rather than one call's signal, so aborting one call never fails the others. await this.payments.yomaMmqr().forgetToken() drops the cached token, e.g. after rotating the client secret.

The token is cached under myanmar-payments.yoma-mmqr.token.<sha256(baseUrl|clientId)>, the same key every Laranex SDK uses, so services in different languages can share one cache (the cache store's own prefix still applies), for Yoma's expires_in minus 60 seconds (at least 60 seconds). expires_in is read from its leading digits, so 28800.0 is 28800 seconds; a missing or non-positive value means 3600.

Errors ​

CallThrowsWhen
initiate()InvalidPaymentDataErrorA value breaks the rules above. Nothing is sent
initiate()ApiErrorThe token request fails, Yoma answers with an HTTP error or an errorCode (e.g. PAYMENT ALREADY EXISTS), checkOutStatus isn't true, or there is no qrString or refLabel
renewQr()ApiErrorAs initiate(), without the checkout
status()ApiErrorThe token request fails, or Yoma answers with an HTTP error or any errorCode other than QR EXPIRED
handleCallback()SignatureVerificationErrorX-Webhook-Secret is missing or wrong (when a webhook secret is set), orderNumber is missing, orderNumber or status holds an object or array, or hashValue doesn't match

Yoma reports business errors with HTTP 200 and an errorCode; ApiError carries it in gatewayCode and Yoma's errorDescription in gatewayMessage. When Yoma can't be reached, the calls throw ApiError with httpStatus 0.
