registrationACQP → Alipay+
The registration API is used by Acquiring Service Providers (ACQPs) to register a new merchant or update an existing registration. For Merchant-presented Mode Payment, the ACQP needs to register both the merchant information and the store information.
When using this API, the ACQP needs to take the following things into consideration:
- Batch operations are not supported. For a single time, only one merchant or store can be registered or updated.
- When calling a request to update an existing registration, check whether the last registration request is still within 30 minutes. Only when the last request exceeds 30 minutes, can the new request be accepted; otherwise, it is rejected.
For Merchant-presented Mode Payment, if the Merchant ID (specified on the merchantInfo.referenceMerchantId parameter), and the Store ID (specified on the storeInfo.referenceStoreId parameter) in the request are both the same as those in the existing registration, a registration is identified as updating an existing registration.
Structure
A message consists of a header and body. The following sections are focused on the body structure. For the header structure, see:
Note:
1. Set the data type of each parameter (except array) as String. This means that you must use double quotation marks (" ") to enclose the parameter value. Examples:
- If the data type of a parameter is Integer and its value is 20, set it as "20".
- If the data type of a parameter is Boolean and its value is
true, set it as "true".
2. For optional parameters that are not required in your case, you can take one of the following actions:
- Exclude the parameters from the request body.
- Set the parameter values as
null(without the double quotation marks).
Do NOT leave optional parameters empty by setting their values as ""; otherwise, an error might occur.
