Razorpay Payment Gateway Integration in PHP

I'd be glad to assist you with integrating Razorpay into your PHP application. Here's a comprehensive guide, incorporating best practices and addressing potential issues:

1. Prerequisites:

  • A Razorpay account with API keys.
  • A PHP development environment.
  • Basic knowledge of PHP and web development.

2. Installation:

Install the Razorpay PHP SDK using Composer:

Bash

composer require razorpay/razorpay

 

Configuration:

Create a configuration file (e.g., config.php) to store your Razorpay API keys:

PHP

 

Integration Steps:

Create an order:

PHP

1000, // Amount in paise (1000 paise = 10 rupees)    'currency' => 'INR',    'receipt' => 'order_rcptid123' ]; $order = $api->order->create($orderData);

 

Generate payment link:

PHP

$paymentLink = $order['url'];

 

Redirect user to payment link:

PHP

header('Location: ' . $paymentLink); exit;

 

Handle payment verification:

  • Create a webhook in your Razorpay dashboard to receive payment notifications.
  • In your PHP application, implement a webhook handler to verify the payment and update your database accordingly.

5. Additional Considerations:

  • Error handling: Implement proper error handling mechanisms to catch exceptions and provide informative feedback to the user.
  • Security: Protect your API keys and sensitive data. Consider using environment variables or secure configuration methods to store them.
  • Testing: Thoroughly test your integration in different scenarios to ensure it works as expected.
  • Customization: Razorpay offers various customization options to tailor the payment experience to your specific requirements.
  • Documentation: Refer to the official Razorpay PHP SDK documentation for more details and advanced features.

PHP

1000,    'currency' => 'INR',    'receipt' => 'order_rcptid123' ]; $order = $api->order->create($orderData); $paymentLink = $order['url']; // Redirect user to payment link header('Location: ' . $paymentLink); exit; // Webhook handler (example) if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {    $payload = json_decode(file_get_contents('php://input'), true);    if ($payload['status'] === 'captured') {        // Payment successful        // Update your database or perform other actions    } else {        // Payment failed        // Handle the failure accordingly    } }
