• Multi Bank Virtual POS

Sales Transaction General Description

The sales transaction allows you to receive payment via Tami, either as a single payment or in installments. Payment is collected using the card details you provide in the request, and once the transaction is processed, Tami informs you in the response whether the sale was successful or unsuccessful.

Tami Test/Prod Portal Information

Before going live with your integration, you can use the Tami Test Portal to test without creating any real money movement.

Test Portal address: https://sandbox-portal.tami.com.tr

If you would like to log in to the test portal to view your transactions and perform cancellations/refunds when needed, a dedicated test portal user must be defined for you. You can reach our support team for this at TeknikDestek@tami.com.tr.

Prod Portal address: https://portal.tami.com.tr

For your production environment credentials, you can register via this address or contact our e-commerce support team.

Tami Test / Prod API Users

Two different environments are used when integrating with Tami’s APIs: Sandbox (Test) and Prod (Production).

  • Test (Sandbox) Environment

This lets you test your integration without creating any real money movement. Your requests are sent to the test endpoints and can be tracked via the Tami Test Portal above.

Below are the credentials you can use to send a test request via the API in the sandbox environment:

FieldValue
Merchant Number77006950
Terminal Number84006953
Secret Key0edad05a-7ea7-40f1-a80c-d600121ca51b
  • Prod (Production) Environment

This is the environment where live transactions take place and real payments are collected.

For your production environment credentials, you can register via https://portal.tami.com.tr or contact our e-commerce support team.

Generating the PG Auth Token

For requests sent to Virtual POS services, the PG-Auth-Token field must be included in the header.

The PG-Auth-Token is generated in the following format:

MerchantNumber:TerminalNumber:Hash

The Hash value is generated by concatenating your Merchant Number, Terminal Number, and Secret Key (in that order), hashing the result with the SHA-256 algorithm, and converting the result to Base64 format.

Below is a sample Java code block demonstrating this calculation:

public class SHA256Example { public static String sha256(Long merchantNumber, Long terminalNumber, String secretKey) { String text = merchantNumber.toString() + terminalNumber.toString() + secretKey; try { MessageDigest digest = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-256"); byte[] hash = digest.digest(text.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)); String sha256Hex = DatatypeConverter.printBase64Binary(hash); return sha256Hex; } catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException e) { e.printStackTrace(); return null; } } }

You can generate the PG-Auth-Token header value by combining the Hash value you generated with your Merchant Number and Terminal Number in the format above.

Sales Transaction API Information

The endpoint information to be used for the sales transaction is below:

You must send your requests using the POST method to the endpoint appropriate for the environment you are working in (test/production).

How the Sales Request Is Sent

For non-3D Virtual POS transactions, the values in the body of the request sent are not expected to be transmitted in plain form; instead, a single signed and encrypted value is expected. This value is sent in the signedRequest field.

The response returned by Tami is likewise signed and encrypted, and is delivered in the signedResponse field. Detailed information on how to decode the signedResponse value is provided in the headings below.

In addition, the following information must also be sent in the header:

  • PG-Auth-Token: How this is calculated is explained above under “Generating the PG Auth Token.”
  • CorrelationId: A variable value that must be unique for each request.
  • PG-Api-Version: Must be sent as v4.

Parameters to Be Signed and Encrypted, with Descriptions

For non-3D Cash/Installment Sales transactions on the Virtual POS, the values in the request body are not sent in plain form; the encrypted value is sent in the signedRequest field.

The signedRequest value is obtained by encrypting a request constructed from the fields listed in the tables below. If any field marked as mandatory (M) is missing or sent incorrectly, the transaction will result in an error.

The fields to be included in signedRequest, along with their rules, are specified in the tables below. Abbreviations: (O) Optional, (M) Mandatory, (C) Conditional.

Generating the Request Token (signedRequest)

For security purposes, information in requests sent by merchants is not sent in plain form. Instead, the request body is expected to contain the signedRequest value, which is generated by signing and encrypting a request built according to the fields requested by Tami.

For a detailed explanation of the signedRequest generation steps and code samples, please see the Generating the Request Token (signedRequest) page.

API Request Example

{ "signedRequest": "eyJjdHkiOiJKV1QiLCJlbmMiOiJBMjU4R0NNIiwiYWxnIjoiZGlyIn0..7DhNYThZtquawbuf.7safki-ZefDRAL_H5pCvskWxaBUFrYx6XQKnEJUuHc-s5LJSmL-EgZz2KejyIWicjzbTBuyCkEUpu1ckRWHicpLTY5XqPm_CuZz6wkwddXgjKLMFt2MO7aL7EdjZAlXdT8A3UfKFO2sIPD2F9X-VehraeVzh9NE8FamNq3LTSolm0m5ciDUtraq4qi..." }

The signedRequest value above has been shortened for example/test purposes. A real request contains a much longer JWE (encrypted token) value.

API Response Example

Response for a successful transaction:

{ "signedResponse": "eyJraWQiOiIxNTAxZTI1MMS2ODkgUqoUuUjBmUiIiwidGKGGKSIjp7InN1Y1Y2VdWiZ1ZXQiOiI3InZuIiwiYWxnIjoiZGly..." }

Response Parameters and Descriptions

When the transaction is successful, the response delivered by Tami contains only the signedResponse field. All other fields listed in the table below (success, systemTime, correlationId, orderId, amount, card information, etc.) are not present in plain form in this case; all of them are carried in encrypted form inside the signedResponse field. You can only access these fields once the signedResponse value has been decoded. The decoding steps are described in the next heading.

When the transaction is unsuccessful, signedResponse is not returned at all; in this case success, systemTime, correlationId, errorCode, errorMessage, and errorGroup fields are returned directly in plain form.

Frequently Asked Questions

Key Value
CorrelationId Correlation{{randomNumber}}
PG-Auth-Token {{merchantNumber}}:{{terminalNumber}}:{{hash}}
PG-Api-Version v4
In the header section, correlationId and PG-Auth-Token parameters are expected to be transmitted. correlationId must be transmitted as a string unique value for each transaction. PG-Auth-Token parameter consists of merchantNumber, terminalNumber and hash information of the merchant as stated in the table. For hash information, merchantNumber, terminalNumber and secretKey information of the merchant is obtained by hashing with sha256 and converting it to string.
