Payment gateway is one of the most important part of any website. Sometime developer feels hassels while integrating bkash payment gateway in his website. To make this more efficient and convinient I make one php composer package. This will make task more easier . Carefully read the blog below, this will give overall idea how to go forward.

Let’s start……..

xenon/bkash-php is a Bkash PHP SDK for integrating bkash api in website easily. Follow below steps for better understanding. Be sure you have composer installed in your system.

Step 1: Installation

composer require xenon/bkash-php

Step 2: Format Configuration

Create your credentials (array) to use along with Xenon\BkashPhp\BkashPhp class

$configuration = [
'config' => [
"app_key" => "app key goes here",
"app_secret" => "app secret goes here",
],
'headers' => [
"username" => "username goes here",
"password" => "password goes here",
]
];

Step 3: Set Environment

create object from BkashPhp Class

use Xenon\BkashPhp\BkashPhp;
$configuration = [
'config' => [
"app_key" => "app key goes here",
"app_secret" => "app secret goes here",
],
'headers' => [
"username" => "username goes here",
"password" => "password goes here",
]
];
$bkash = new BkashPhp($configuration);
$bkash->setEnvironment('sandbox'); //sandbox|production

Step 4: Exception

Exception Handling

use Xenon\BkashPhp\Handler\Exception\RenderBkashPHPException

Always call below methods under try block. After any of this method failed or exception occurs then it will throw RenderBkashPHPException

createTokenizedPayment()
executePayment()
searchTransaction()

Create Payment Url

Bkash payment gateway allows you to create payment url based on different parameters. Follow below code sample

use Xenon\BkashPhp\Handler\Exception\RenderBkashPHPException
use Xenon\BkashPhp\BkashPhp;

try{
$paymentData = [
'mode' => '0011', //fixed
'payerReference' => '017AAXXYYZZ',
'callbackURL' => 'http://example.com/callback',
'merchantAssociationInfo' => 'xxxxxxxxxx',
'amount' => 10,
'currency' => 'BDT', //fixed
'intent' => 'sale', //fixed
'merchantInvoiceNumber' => "invoice number goes here",
];
$createTokenizedPaymentResponse = $bkash->createTokenizedPayment($paymentData);
}catch(RenderBkashPHPException $e){
//do whatever you want
}

If everything goes well then it will return below object. After that redirect to bkashURL from below object

stdClass Object
(
[statusCode] => 0000
[statusMessage] => Successful
[paymentID] => TR0011DVJQOkh169400XXX
[bkashURL] => https://sandbox.payment.bkash.com/redirect/tokenized/?paymentID=TR0011DVJQOkh1694007349990&hash=yaJMHgVb_BW_pJuxErXXXdf8-QFyHHG0bqkwBdUU(NLFwI(-ltH8z36kpnxtxa5Xs5tJxFxW5KoyKN5nWPisXXXXXXXXXXX50209&mode=0011&apiVersion=v1.2.0-beta
[callbackURL] => http://http://127.0.0.1/bkash-project/bkash-payment
[successCallbackURL] => http://http://127.0.0.1/bkash-project/bkash-payment?paymentID=TR0011DVJQOkh169400XXX&status=success
[failureCallbackURL] => http://http://127.0.0.1/bkash-project/bkash-payment?paymentID=TR0011DVJQOkh169400XXX&status=failure
[cancelledCallbackURL] => http://http://127.0.0.1/bkash-project/bkash-payment?paymentID=TR0011DVJQOkh169400XXX&status=cancel
[amount] => 10
[intent] => sale
[currency] => BDT
[paymentCreateTime] => 2023-09-06T19:35:50:209 GMT+0600
[transactionStatus] => Initiated
[merchantInvoiceNumber] => dsf64f8803XXX93
)

Execute Payment

After payment done customer will be redirected to merchant callback url having query string like below
"https://example.com?paymentID=TR0011ZCxlJhC1693137759378&status=success"

Now it’s time to call executePayment() method with paymentID

use Xenon\BkashPhp\Handler\Exception\RenderBkashPHPException
use Xenon\BkashPhp\BkashPhp;

try{
$bkash = new BkashPhp($configuration);
$executePaymentResponse = $bkash->executePayment($paymentId);
}catch(RenderBkashPHPException $e){
//do whatever you want
}
stdClass Object
(
[statusCode] => 0000
[statusMessage] => Successful
[paymentID] => TR0011DVJQOkh169400XXX
[payerReference] => 017AAXXYYZZ
[customerMsisdn] => 01877722345
[trxID] => AI620D4DVQ
[amount] => 10
[transactionStatus] => Completed
[paymentExecuteTime] => 2023-09-06T19:11:01:698 GMT+0600
[currency] => BDT
[intent] => sale
[merchantInvoiceNumber] => dsf64f8803XXX93
)

Query Payment

After successful payment execution, it needs to call searchTransaction() method.

use Xenon\BkashPhp\Handler\Exception\RenderBkashPHPException
use Xenon\BkashPhp\BkashPhp;

try{
$trxID = request()->trxID; //get trxID from executePayment() method
$bkash = new BkashPhp($configuration);
$executePaymentResponse = $bkash->searchTransaction($trxID);
}catch(RenderBkashPHPException $e){
//do whatever you want
}
This will match trxID with bkash database. After getting response object you will do further according to your web application requirements.
stdClass Object
(
[trxID] => AI620D4DVQ
[initiationTime] => 2023-09-06T22:15:34:000 GMT+0600
[completedTime] => 2023-09-06T22:15:34:000 GMT+0600
[transactionType] => bKash Tokenized Checkout via API
[customerMsisdn] => 01877722345
[transactionStatus] => Completed
[amount] => 10
[currency] => BDT
[organizationShortCode] => 50022
[statusCode] => 0000
[statusMessage] => Successful
)
