Mail with Direct Payment Instructions
3 Mail with Direct Payment Instructions
If you want to communicate to your customers directly with offers you can include a direct link to the payment
page in every mail – with descriptions, payment amount, etc. already pre-filled.
This means that you can generate payment links without intervention of Adyen, even when sending out
thousands of emails to your customers. Imagine that you have an offer for a cooking set as depicted below.
You send out a mail to your customers and they get the following message in their mailbox:
Example 10: Direct Payment
By clicking on the Pay Now! button the customer is immediately sent to the (one-page) payment screen,
where all order details are already filled in. The only thing the customer has to enter are their payment details.
When to use:
• Marketing actions to your existing customer base
• If you have seen shoppers aband the ordering processing
When constructing the email your system builds a link to our payment page just as would happen in your
webshop. The example below shows what such links look like:

Example 11: Direct Payment HTTPS call
Please note that, due to restrictions of most Internet browsers, the GET url is limited to a maximum of 1024
characters. You also need to properly urlencode the url.
For more detailed information about the different payment fields that are required in a payment request
please see the Adyen Merchant Integration Manual.
