AYA Pay ​

The AYA Payment Gateway is one hosted checkout for AYA Pay, other wallets (KBZ Pay, WavePay, UAB Pay, CB Pay…) and cards (VISA, Mastercard, JCB).

Responses shows what AYA Pay puts in each result.

How it works ​

AYA posts the result to your callback URL and also signs the query string it adds when sending the customer back.

Channels and Methods ​

channel is a lowercase key such as aya_pay, kbz_pay or visa; method is how the customer pays through it. Which ones you have depends on your merchant account, so list them:

ts
import { AyaPay, AyaPayMethod } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments/aya-pay';

const aya = new AyaPay({
  appKey: '...',
  appSecret: '...',
  timeoutSeconds: 30,
});

for (const service of await aya.services()) {
  // service.name: "AYA Pay"
  // service.key: "aya_pay", pass it as channel
  // service.imageUrl: the channel's logo
  // service.methods: [AyaPayMethod.Qr, AyaPayMethod.Noti]
  if (service.supports(AyaPayMethod.Qr)) {
    // offer the QR method
  }
}

Methods AYA lists that this package doesn't know yet are kept in service.unknownMethods.

AyaPayMethodValueCustomer
AyaPayMethod.WebWEBPays on a hosted web page (cards)
AyaPayMethod.QrQRScans a QR with the wallet app
AyaPayMethod.NotiNOTIApproves a push notification in the wallet app

Initiating a Payment ​

ts
import {
  AyaPayMethod,
  type AyaPayPaymentData,
} from '@laranex/myanmar-payments/aya-pay';

const data: AyaPayPaymentData = {
  orderId: `ORDER_${order.id}`,
  amount: 10000,
  channel: 'aya_pay',
  method: AyaPayMethod.Qr,
  returnUrl: 'https://shop.test/payments/aya/return',
  description: `Order #${order.id}`,
};

const payment = aya.initiate(data);

// The page posts the signed form to AYA on load.
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'text/html; charset=utf-8' });
res.end(payment.toHtml());

AyaPayPaymentData ​

FieldTypeRequiredRules
orderIdstringYesUnique, 6 to 40 characters (merchOrderId)
amountAmount | number | bigintYesWhole kyat, greater than 0, e.g. 10000 or Amount.kyat(10000). AYA documents no decimals and only accepts MMK (104)
channelstringYesA key from services()
methodAyaPayMethodYes'WEB', 'QR' or 'NOTI'
returnUrlstringNoAbsolute http or https URL. Unset uses the URL registered with AYA
descriptionstringNoShown to the customer
userRefsstring[]NoUp to 5 of your own values, echoed back in the callback

Form Encoding ​

AYA expects the form as multipart/form-data. payment.enctype carries it; use it if you render the form yourself.

Handling Callbacks ​

AYA posts to the callback URL registered with them.

ts
import { CallbackRequest } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';

// POST /payments/aya/callback
try {
  const request = await CallbackRequest.fromNodeRequest(req);
  const callback = aya.handleCallback(request);

  if (callback.isSuccessful()) {
    // callback.orderId is your merchOrderId
    // callback.gatewayReference is AYA's tranId
  }

  callback.acknowledgement.send(res);
} catch {
  res.writeHead(400).end('invalid callback');
}

AYA signs only the fields present in its payload (wallet payments leave out the card fields); the package verifies them in the order the specification lists.

The Return Page ​

AYA signs the query string it adds when sending the customer back, so the return page can show the right message:

ts
import { CallbackRequest } from '@laranex/myanmar-payments';

// GET /payments/aya/return
try {
  const request = await CallbackRequest.fromNodeRequest(req);
  const result = aya.verifyRedirect(request);

  res.end(
    result.isSuccessful()
      ? 'Thank you, your payment was received.'
      : `Payment ${result.status}.`,
  );
} catch {
  res.writeHead(400).end('invalid return');
}

A + in the base64 payload that reached you as a space (an unencoded query string) is read back as + before decoding; the checksum is still verified. The payload may be correctly padded or carry no padding at all; partial padding, the URL-safe alphabet, line breaks and text that isn't UTF-8 are rejected. Still fulfill orders from the backend callback.

Status Checks ​

ts
const result = await aya.status(`ORDER_${order.id}`);

if (result.isSuccessful()) {
  // result.gatewayReference is AYA's tranId
}

status() takes your orderId. An order AYA doesn't know throws ApiError (20 Transaction not found).

Responses ​

What AYA Pay puts in each field. See Results and PaymentCallback & Status for the full classes. A field the gateway didn't send is undefined. raw holds plain JavaScript values, with JSON numbers kept as their exact text in a string (1000.50 stays "1000.50").

services() → AyaPayService[] ​

AyaPayService is AYA-only, so it is listed in full here.

Field / MethodAYA Pay value
nameAYA name, e.g. AYA Pay. Falls back to key
keyAYA key, e.g. aya_pay, kbz_pay, visa. Pass it as channel. Always set
imageUrlAYA image_url, the channel's logo. undefined when AYA sends none
methodsAyaPayMethod[] this package knows, e.g. [AyaPayMethod.Qr, AyaPayMethod.Noti]
unknownMethodsstring[] of methods AYA listed that this package doesn't know yet. Usually []
supports(method)Whether methods contains method

Entries AYA sends without a key are skipped.

initiate() → FormPayment ​

checkSumHMAC-SHA256 of the values above joined with :

initiate() makes no HTTP call, so it is synchronous and takes no signal. FormPayment has no raw: nothing is sent to AYA until the customer's browser posts the form.

status() → PaymentStatusResult ​

FieldAYA Pay value
orderIdAYA merchOrderId, falling back to the orderId you passed. Always set
statusstatusCode mapped, see Statuses
gatewayStatusAYA statusCode, trimmed, e.g. 00
gatewayReferenceAYA tranId
amountAYA amount, e.g. 10000
rawThe verified, decoded enquiry payload: merchOrderId, tranId, amount, currencyCode, statusCode, paymentCardNumber, paymentMobileNumber, cardTypeName, cardExpiryDate, nameOnCard, approvalCode, tranRef, userRef1–5, description, dateTime

AYA leaves out the fields that don't apply (wallet payments have no card fields), so raw only has the keys AYA sent. Some payloads spell currencyCode as currenyCode.

handleCallback() → PaymentCallback ​

FieldAYA Pay value
orderIdAYA merchOrderId (your orderId)
statusstatusCode mapped, see Statuses
gatewayStatusAYA statusCode, trimmed, e.g. 00
gatewayReferenceAYA tranId
amountAYA amount, e.g. 10000
rawThe verified, decoded payload, with the same keys as status()
acknowledgementHTTP 200, empty body, Content-Type: text/plain

verifyRedirect() → PaymentCallback ​

The same values as handleCallback(), read from the signed payload and checkSum AYA adds to your return URL (query string first, then the body). There is nothing to acknowledge: render your own page.

Statuses ​

01pending

Errors ​

CallThrowsWhen
initiate()InvalidPaymentDataErrorAyaPay.validate(data) fails. Nothing is signed
services()ApiErrorAYA answers with an HTTP error or a status other than 00
status()ApiErrorAYA answers with an HTTP error or a status other than 00, e.g. 20 Transaction not found
status()SignatureVerificationErrorThe enquiry payload's checkSum doesn't match
handleCallback(), verifyRedirect()SignatureVerificationErrorpayload is missing or not base64 JSON, a signed field holds an object or array, or checkSum doesn't match

The async calls reject with these errors. ApiError carries AYA's status (e.g. 20 Transaction not found, 09 Duplicate order ID) in gatewayCode and its message in gatewayMessage. When AYA can't be reached, the request times out or the signal aborts, the calls throw ApiError with the original error as cause.
