Set up sandbox payments

Order with Google projects allow configuring the Sandbox Payment Mode when using either the Quick Test or the Sandbox environment. While you test your data feed, you can switch between Sandbox and Production Payment Modes. In order to test payments for your Order with Google project without charging the cards, use Sandbox as your Payment Mode. The production environment does not support the Sandbox Payment Mode.

Configuration

To enable the Sandbox Payment Mode in the Sandbox environment, follow these steps:

  1. On the Partner Portal, navigate to Configuration > Features.
  2. On the Account features card, find the Payment Mode radio button.
  3. Select the Sandbox option and click Save changes.

To enable the Sandbox Payment Mode in the Quick Test environment, follow these steps:

  1. On the Partner Portal, navigate to Feeds  > Quick Test.
  2. Select the Use sandbox for GPay radio button.

When the Sandbox Payment Mode is selected:

The different combinations of Environment, Payment Mode and isInSandbox are as follows:

Environment Payment Mode isInSandbox
Quick Test Sandbox true
Quick Test Production false
Sandbox Sandbox true
Sandbox Production false
Production Production false

Checkout Response Message

The CheckoutResponseMessage sent by your Food Ordering web service contains PaymentOptions. When you set up your checkout, you provide a placeholder payment options using an example payment gateway.

  • Be sure to update the CheckoutResponseMessage sent by your web service with the appropriate tokenization configuration.

Payment option examples

The following are example JSON PaymentOptions objects from a CheckoutResponseMessage for various payment gateways using sandbox keys:

Flag sandbox transactions

When the Sandbox Payment Mode is enabled, the isInSandbox field is included in the request and set to true for incoming requests to your web service endpoint (CheckoutRequestMessage and SubmitOrderRequestMessage). Do the following when the isInSandbox field is set to true:

  • Use sandbox keys instead of production keys in the tokenization configuration for your payment gateway. Most payment processors provide API keys for both sandbox and production.
  • Don't trigger any communication with the web service provider, usually a restaurant, as they don't have to be informed of any sandbox transactions.

Test credit cards aren't supported, even when the transaction sandbox is enabled. You must use a real credit card when you make a transaction. However, sandbox instrument tokens contain test card details that are not chargeable.

Process payments

When a customer submits their order, Order with Google sends the SubmitOrderRequestMessage to your web service endpoint. The Google Pay token is included as a base-64 encoded string in the SubmitOrderRequestMessage instrumentToken field. To process the customer's payment, do one of the following depending on your payment gateway:

Payment gateway
Stripe or Braintree Decode the base-64 encoded token string and send the appropriate data contained in the decoded token payload to your payment gateway to process the payment.
All other payment gateways (including stripev2) Send the complete base-64 encoded token string to your payment gateway api to process the payment. The Google Pay payment method token structure contains encrypted fields that your payment gateway can decrypt to process the payment.

Decoded payload example

The following examples show decoded payloads returned in the instrumentToken field for various payment gateways:

JSON

This JSON example represents a decoded payment token when using Braintree. Extract the value of the nonce field and send the value to Braintree to process the payment.

{
  "androidPayCards": [{
    "type": "AndroidPayCard",
    "nonce": "aeeb8297-4242...",
    "description": "AndroidPay",
    "consumed": false,
    "details": {
      "cardType": "Visa",
      "lastTwo": "29"
    }
  }]
}

If Google Pay is not enabled in the Braintree control panel, the instrumentToken field decodes to the following error:

{
  "error": {
    "message": "Record not found"
  },
  "fieldErrors": []
}

JSON

This JSON example represents a decoded payment token when using Stripe. Extract the value of the id field and send it to Stripe to process the payment.

  "object": "token",
  "card": {
    "id": "card_abcde...",
    "object": "card",

  }

To process the payment using the token, return the base-64 encoded token string with your request to Square's payment api in the source_id field prefixed by gpay:

  {
    "idempotency_key": "ID",
    "source_id": "gpay:GOOGLE_PAY_BASE64_ENCODED_TOKEN",
    "amount_money": {
        "amount": 50,
        "currency": "USD"
    },
    "location_id": "LOCATION_ID",
    "billing_address": {
        "postal_code": "11111"
    }
  }

The following is a Node.js example that decodes the base-64 encoded instrumentToken from Braintree:

Node.js

function decodeToken(instrumentToken) {
  let decodedString = new Buffer(instrumentToken, 'base64').toString('ascii')
  if (decodedString.androidPayCards) {
    return decodedString.androidPayCards[0].nonce;
  }
}
