Load money in POS
In order to recharge mobile phones or make bill payments, it is necessary to have available balance on the terminal, which can be loaded by creating a special payment instance in RDCPass.
If you want to generate this payment instance to load balance into the terminal, follow the steps below.
Important
The process of loading money in the POS is similar to creating a payment intent. Pay special attention to the step-by-step instructions to successfully load money.
- Add the following intent-filter (Activity) to the AndroidManifest.xml file of your project:
android
<intent-filter> <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" /> <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" /> <data android:mimeType="text/*" /> </intent-filter>
Important
If you have already created a payment intent, you have already incorporated this intent-filter, and you can skip this step.
- Modify the "shareRDCPass" function implemented to generate a payment intent as shown below:
android
public void shareRDCPass(String total, String intent, Boolean esCarga) { try { Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(intent); sharingIntent.setClassName("redelcom.cl.rdcpass", "redelcom.cl.rdcpass.MainActivity"); sharingIntent.putExtra("packageName", getPackageName()); sharingIntent.putExtra("className", getClass().toString().split(" ")[1]); sharingIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, total); if (esCarga){ sharingIntent.putExtra("recargaSaldo", true); sharingIntent.putExtra("payment_type", "TARJETA"); } startActivity(sharingIntent); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } }
| Method | Description | Example |
sharingIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, total) | total is the total amount of the transaction. Only CLP currency is accepted, and it should be in numeric string format, without dots or special characters. | 2000 |
sharingIntent.putExtra("recargaSaldo", true) | Indicates that the transaction is a balance load. Boolean format, default is false. To generate the load, it should be set to true. | true/false |
sharingIntent.putExtra("payment_type", "TARJETA") | Indicates the payment method to be used. If omitted, it must be selected on the POS. | “EFECTIVO” “TARJETA” “WALLET” (QR Payments) “SIN_EFECTIVO” (Allows selection on the POS between: “CARDS AND WALLET”) “SIN_WALLET” (Allows selection on the POS between: “CASH AND CARDS”) |
The response to this POS money load intention is similar to that of creating a payment intention. The most relevant field is saldo_terminal, which indicates the resulting balance at the end of the transaction.
