Terminal Management

Connect

connect Method

Connects to a payment terminal. Whenever the connection to the device is lost, the SDK will keep on trying to establish a connection until it’s re-established. No special actions are needed.

Parameters

Parameter	Notes
device Required Device	This parameter specifies which device type you want to connect to.

Code example

//Connect to a device
Device device = new Device("CardReader7", "08:00:69:02:01:FC", "1", ConnectionMethod.BLUETOOTH);
Device device = new Device("LocalDevice", "0821032398-PAXA920", "", ConnectionMethod.ANDROID_PAYMENT);
Device device = new Device("CloudDevice", "0821032398-PAXA920", "", ConnectionMethod.CLOUD);
api.connect(device);

Events invoked

connectionStatusChanged

Each time the card reader state changes (ex : going from Connected to Disconnected) the ConnectionStatusChanged event is called. It causes the connection manager to invoke this event with the appropriate information.

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Boolean	true if the operation was successfully.

Disconnect

disconnect Method

Disconnect will stop the active connection (or reconnection process). Please note that the method ignores the current state of the payment terminal and just stops the connection. Calling disconnect might result in a commmunication error if triggered during a transaction.

Code example

//Disconnects from the payment terminal 
api.Disconnect();

Events invoked

connectionStatusChanged

Causes the connection manager to invoke this event with the appropriate information.

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Boolean	True if the operation was successful.

Get Device Manufacturer

getDeviceManufacturer Method

Code example

Manufacturer manufacturer = api.getDeviceManufacturer();

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Manufacturer	The payment terminal manufacturer.

Get EMV Report

getEMVConfiguration Method

Fetches the logs from the device and reports them to the deviceLogsReady event.

Code example

//Downloads logs from device
api.getDeviceLogs();

Events invoked

ReportResult

Invoked when the sdk has finished downloading the EMV report from the payment terminal.

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Boolean	True if the operation was successfully sent to device.

Get Paired Devices

getPairedDevices Method

Returns the payment terminals associated with the specified ConnectionMethod.

Parameters

Parameter	Notes
method Required ConnectionMethod	The type of connection with the payment terminal (Bluetooth, Cloud, etc.).

Code example

// Get paired terminals
List<Device> devices = api.getPairedDevices(ConnectionMethod.XXX);

Returns

Parameter	Notes
List<Device>	The list of payment terminals.

Get Transactions Report

getTransactionsReport Method

Fetches your transactions report from a payment terminal. If you want to print the report, you can call printReceipt with the string returned in ReportResult event as parameter.

Parameters

Parameter	Notes
reportConfiguration Required ReportConfiguration	This parameter specifies the filter to get transactions report.

Code example

//Get the transactions report for device "12345", from 30th April 2021 at 00:00:00, to 30th April 2021 at 23:59:59, in eurs:
List terminalSerialNumber = new ArrayList<>();
terminalSerialNumber.add("0821122334");
ReportConfiguration configuration = new ReportConfiguration("EUR", "20231001000000", "20231201235959", "+00:00", terminalSerialNumber);

api.getTransactionsReport(configuration);

Events invoked

ReportResult

The report will be returned to the registered ReportResult interface.

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Boolean	True if the command was processed successfully. False if the sending was not successful.

Flash Reset

deleteDeviceConfig Method

Sends a command to the payment terminal to delete its configuration.

Code example

api.deleteDeviceConfig();

Print Receipt

printReceipt Method

Print on demand functionality allowing the merchant to print any HTML formatted receipt. It is possible to print images or barcodes as well as passing directly a URL to the printReceipt function. A bitmap can also be printed, in order to do so it needs to be rendered as an image and inserted into the html.

tip

Receipts received in the terminal transaction result can either be a URL OR an HTML formatted receipt. The format can be changed by updating the getReceiptsAsURLs boolean when initializing the SDK Settings. Note that if the terminal is not able to upload the receipt to the Handpoint cloud servers and generate a URL then the HTML formatted receipt will be delivered to your software. It is important to be able to manage both formats.

Parameters

Parameter	Notes
receipt Required String	The receipt must match the following HTML Print Format. The Transaction Report (also called End of Day Report) can be printed from the string returned in the ReportResult event.

Code example (Prints a receipt with Handpoint logo)

//Print a receipt with Handpoint logo (bitmap format)
String validReceipt = "<html><body><img

Get Transaction Status

getTransactionStatus Method

This functionality is only available for SmartPos devices (PAX).

If for any reasons you do not know if a transaction was approved or declined then this method will allow you to retrieve the status of the transaction from the Handpoint gateway. The getTransactionStatus method is a convenient way to retrieve the current status of a transaction based on its unique reference. This method accepts a transactionReference as a parameter and returns the current status of the transaction. The transactionReference is returned at the start of a transaction, as part of the Operation Start Result object.

The main FinancialStatus that can be returned as a response to this method are the following ones:

• AUTHORISED - Transaction was successful.
• DECLINED - Transaction was declined.
• UNDEFINED (NOT FOUND) - The transaction does not exist in the Handpoint gateway. If this status is returned within 90s of the start of a transaction, there could be a chance that the cardholder has not inserted, swiped or tapped his card yet on the terminal and the Handpoint gateway might soon receive the transaction. If the UNDEFINED status is returned after 90s, it means that the transaction processed has not reached the Handpoint gateway and it will NOT be charged.
• IN_PROGRESS - The transaction has been received by the gateway but the outcome is not known yet, try again after a few seconds.
• REFUNDED - Transaction was refunded.

Parameters

Parameter	Notes
transactionReference Required String	The transactionReference (UUID v4) is returned at the start of a transaction, as part of the Operation Start Result object.

Code example

//Gets the current status of a transaction 
api.getTransactionStatus("00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000");

Events invoked

transactionResultReady

Invoked when the result of the getTransactionStatus request is available.

Returns

Parameter	Notes
Boolean	true if the operation was successfully.
