dLocal gateway guide

Additional notes
The current supported dLocal API can respond with a success message for a request to void an authorization that has already been captured, but that void request will have no effect on the payment.
dLocal requires a Country code to be sent for each transaction. The Country code for each transaction is populated from the billing address that was provided when the payment method token was created.

Adding a dLocal gateway

To add a dLocal gateway:

Third-party 3D Secure 2 auth data

Spreedly will automatically handle the field mapping for sending third-party 3DS2 authentication data to Dlocal. For more information about how to use this feature, see the [3DS2 Third-party Authentication Guide](To be Added). Spreedly fields map to the relevant Dlocal fields as described in the following table. Please see Dlocal’s transaction variable documentation for detailed descriptions of each of these fields and when to use them.

Gateway specific fields

When interacting with a dLocal gateway to run transactions, there are a number of gateway specific fields you can specify. See below for usage notes for certain fields, and dLocal’s documentation for more information.

  • document the customer’s national identification number, required for Auths and Purchases.
  • Passing notification_url for refunds will allow dLocal to send http POST notices of the refund’s finalization to that url, if the refund is not immediate.
  • birth_date is expected in the format DD-MM-YYYY
  • idempotency_key is for safely retrying requests without accidentally performing the same operation twice.
  • device_id dLocal device ID used in fraud prevention. Described as event_uuid in dLocal docs
  • additional_data open ended object used in fraud prevention. Described as additional_risk_data in dLocal docs
  • force_type is an optional field that indicates the card type in cases where the card can act as either debit or credit. This field only applies for transactions in Brazil. Possible values are: CREDIT or DEBIT.
  • original_order_id is an ID given by the merchant in their system for the original transaction in the event it is rejected and needs to be retried.
  • save is an optional boolean field. When set to true on a purchase, authorize, or verify, it will save the card to the merchant’s dLocal account, and will also generate the saved_card_type gateway specific response field.

Syncing Transactions

Spreedly supports updating the status of transactions that have been initiated at the dLocal gateway. dLocal currently supports using gateway_transaction_id or order_id for updates. The gateway_transaction_id would be the payment_id of the order. While order_id is the unique identifier used by the merchant in dLocal’s system. See our documentation for more information.

Custom Terminal State Rules

When syncing your transaction, there are some transaction states that are ineligible for update. The dLocal gateway deviates from this rule. With dLocal, transactions with the state succeeded are still eligible for update only if that transaction is in a pending status at the gateway.

Gateway specific response fields

A response from dLocal may contain the acquirer, notification_url, ticket, saved_card_type, country, and status gateway specific response fields.

For example, a transaction could have something like this:

  <transaction>
    <token>LgpTNGjsWQs9DwdxcbreUVz0R8p</token>
    <transaction_type>Purchase</transaction_type>
    <gateway_specific_response_fields>
       <d_local>
         <acquirer>Test</acquirer>
         <notification_url>test.com</notification_url>
         <ticket>123456</ticket>
         <saved_card_type>CREDIT</saved_card_type>
         <country>BR</country>
         <status>PAID</status>
       </d_local>
    </gateway_specific_response_fields>
  </transaction>

When syncing your transaction, there are some transaction states that are ineligible for update. The dLocal gateway deviates from this rule. With dLocal, transactions with the state succeeded are still eligible for update only if that transaction is in a pending status at the gateway.

Local Payment Methods

Pix

Pix is a payment method for instant direct bank transfers in Brazil, which is built and owned by the Central Bank (Banco Central) and operated by Brazilian banks, digital accounts, and wallets.

The user can complete the payment using any Home Banking or Ewallet App, by copying and pasting a Transaction ID or scanning a QR code. For more information about PIX see Pix dLocal documentation.

Available country codeBR

Parameters:

FIELD NAMEM/ODESCRIPTION
payment_method_idMPix unique identifier
payment_method_flowMSpecify the type of flow to use
notification_urlMNotification URL to receive changes about the transaction state
offsite_syncOIdentify the transaction as synchronous, default is false

Pix Transactions

The Spreedly integration with dLocal Gateway offers one mode of transacting via PIX using Direct PIX payment

For offsite transaction it is necessary to reach out to your dLocal account manager to ensure your account is properly configured.

Callback

Spreedly’s callback system handles situations where a customer runs an asynchronous transaction and the result is not immediately available to return to them. When Spreedly receives a status update on an asynchronous transaction that alters the state of the Spreedly transaction, Spreedly will send a notification to the callback_url specified in the transaction.

Notification

Whenever dLocal updates the state of a pending transaction, they can notify Spreedly through the webhook mentioned above to update the transaction status. The merchants have to configure the notification_url in their dLocal dashboard.

For more information on callbacks, see Spreedly’s Offsite Payments documentation.
