Overview

• The BankCardUZ payment method uses 3DS version 1 (3DSv1) for cardholder authentication.
• To help you test different authentication and authorisation flows in the sandbox, we’ve introduced the concept of a “written destiny” for each transaction.
• A written destiny lets you define exactly how a transaction will behave at each stage of the 3DSv1 flow - from intent creation to capture - without changing any other parameters.
• This approach simplifies automated testing and enables deterministic emulation of success, failure, and edge-case scenarios.

Reference Diagram

The entire process is illustrated in the flow diagram below.

As you can see, there are several possible paths a transaction can follow - depending on iframe requirements, challenge outcomes, authorisation results, and post-authorisation actions.

Defining the Transaction Destiny

The destiny is set via the description field in the Intent creation request body.

⚠️

Important:

There are two description fields in the API structure - one in the intent, and another in payments[].description. Use only the intent-level field. The one inside payments[] will be ignored for testing purposes.

• Each destiny consists of a chain of keywords corresponding to specific flow outcomes.
• These keywords are grouped by flow sections, and only one keyword can be chosen per section.
• Join your selected keywords with the | (pipe) symbol to form a single string.
• If the platform detects that the actual transaction behaviour does not match the destiny you provided, it will return an ERROR and stop processing.

Example

For example, to simulate this sequence:

You should define the destiny as follows: "description": "Challenge|AuthSuccess|InitCapture|Capture-Success"

{
    "clientReferenceId": "1234",
    "description": "Challenge|AuthSuccess|InitCapture|Capture-Success",
    "payments": [
        {
            "paymentInstrument": {
                "paymentMethodName": "BankCardUZ",
                "incomingDetails": {
                  "viewType": "web_view",
									"number": "4111111111111111",
                  "cvv": "123",
                  "holderName": "Will Rush",
                  "expiryMonth": 12,
                  "expiryYear": 2035,
                  "successUrl": "successUrl",
                  "failureUrl": "failureUrl",
                }
            },
            "submittedAmount": {
                "value": 100,
                "currency": "UZS"
            },
            "authCurrencyCode": "UZS"
        }
    ]
}
