Purchase processing by using Gate
Purchase processing by using Gate requires further elaboration on your side. You need to implement the functionality for redirecting the customer to the URL received in response to a request for purchase. This URL contains a unique session identifier (SID) on the Skrill Wallet side.
Payment method Skrill Wallet provides the ability to perform COF payments of two types: OneClick and regular payments. For more information about COF payments, see Credential-on-file (COF) purchases.
In the Skrill Wallet payment method, COF payments of the OneClick type are performed by using the Skrill 1-Tap service. This service allows to make payments in "one tap" using previously saved wallet.
The request should contain information about the frequency, amount, start and end dates of the regular payments. The regular payments start date specified in the start_date parameter must be at least one day later than the registration date.
