Create token

post/merchants/{merchant_id}/token

You can create a token with arbitrary user parameters. You send these parameters when obtaining the token and receive them back after a successful payment. A token can only contain parameters either described in this document or predefined by you.

If any parameter is sent in the wrong format or has the wrong type, no token will be issued. You will receive a 422 HTTP code with the error description in the JSON body. In extended_message you will receive an information what exact parameters have been sent incorrectly.

Notice

The token you obtain after calling this API method can be used only for authorizing other requests. You can use this token to open the payment UI only if you integrated the Subscriptions product.
