A Saga Payments merchant account is required. Saga Payments API All payment operations (order creation, payment verification, refunds, captures, voids, and subscription management) are handled through the Saga Payments API proxy server. When a customer initiates a checkout, order data including amount, currency, line items, and customer billing/shipping information is sent to this service via server-side HTTP requests. Service URL: https://sagapay-api-v3.kristoffer-afc.workers.dev/api Provider: Saga Payments (Cloudflare Worker proxy to Surfboard Payments) Website: https://sagapay.no Terms of Service: https://www.sagapay.no/terms-of-service Privacy Policy: https://www.sagapay.no/personvernserklaering Saga Payments Merchant Dashboard and Documentation The plugin settings screen links store administrators to Saga Payments dashboard and documentation pages for API key, webhook, and product catalogue setup. These links open only when an administrator clicks them. No customer or payment data is sent automatically by these documentation links.

Only the customer’s email address, a generated OTP code, the store name, and the cart total are sent in the request. No card data is transmitted. The OTP email is delivered via the worker using the Resend email service.

This JavaScript library is loaded from an external server into the customer’s browser and handles the secure payment UI including card input fields, Vipps/MobilePay popups, Klarna widget, and Apple Pay / Google Pay buttons. Card data is entered directly into Surfboard-hosted iframes and never touches your server.

The order amount, currency, and return URLs are passed via the redirect. All payment data is entered on the hosted page.

This is managed automatically by the Surfboard Online SDK and serves as the bridge between your store and the Vipps/MobilePay apps.

Payment token data is returned to your store and forwarded to the Saga Payments API for processing. SDK URL: https://pay.google.com/gp/p/js/pay.js Provider: Google Website: https://pay.google.com Terms of Service: https://payments.google.com/payments/apis-secure/get_legal_document?ldo=0&ldt=googlepaytos Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy QR Code Generation For Swish payments, if the payment gateway does not return a pre-rendered QR code image, the plugin generates a QR code locally using the bundled qrcode-generator library (MIT license, by Kazuhiko Arase). No external service is called for QR code generation. Saga Checkout SDK (Diagnostics Only) The plugin diagnostics page displays the configured SDK endpoint for admin troubleshooting purposes. The actual payment SDK loaded during checkout is the Surfboard Online SDK documented above.

This is an opt-in feature configured in the plugin settings.
