OVO Wallet
Overview
Introduction
OVO Wallet is a payment method which allows to process payments in Indonesian rupiahs by using e-wallets in Indonesia. This method supports purchases and payouts. Two channels can be used for purchase processing—channel 1 is performed without the redirection of the customer to the provider service, and channel 2 involves the redirection of the customer. For more information about the applicable processing channel, refer to your ecommpay key account manager.
This article provides information about working with the OVO Wallet method: general insights are presented in the Overview section, while information about the actions required to process payments and perform other actions is presented in the sections that follow.

Special considerations | in this method all payment amounts in IDR are integer. If the currency IDR is specified in the payment request it is necessary to round the payment amount to an integer, otherwise the fractional part is severed during processing on the payment platform side. If another currency is specified in the request, the payment amount is converted to an equivalent amount in the IDR currency on the ecommpay side and rounded to 1,000.00 IDR. |

Interaction diagram
Payment processing by using the OVO Wallet method involves the merchant's web service, one of ecommpay interfaces, the ecommpay payment platform, and technical facilities of the provider service.
Operations support
Various platform interfaces can be used to process payments and perform operations using the OVO Wallet method. Purchases can be processed by using Payment Page, Gate and Dashboard (using payment links), payouts—by using Gate and Dashboard. At the same time, regardless of the interfaces used, the following properties and limitations are applicable.
When working with the OVO Wallet the following properties and limitations are applicable.
Amounts, IDR ¹ | Times ² | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
minimum | maximum | basic | threshold | |
Purchases | 10,000.00 | 2,000,000.00 until KYC* 10,000,000.00 since KYC |
1 minute | 85 seconds |
Payouts | 10,000.00 | 25,000,000.00 | 1 minute | 45 days |
- KYC or Know Your Customer is the process that allows organisations to verify clients and prevent frauds.
- The base and threshold times are defined as follows:
- The base time is the average estimated time between the moment a payment is initiated in the payment platform to the moment the payment result is sent to the web service. The base time evaluation is made on the assumption of normal operation of all technical facilities and communication channels and typical customer behaviour (if any input from the customer is required). Use the base time to estimate when to react to the absence of payment result callbacks or when to check payment status (details).
- The threshold time is the maximum possible time between the moment a payment is initiated in the payment platform to the moment the web service receives the callback with the payment result. A payment is automatically assigned the
decline
status if it wasn't processed within the threshold time. For individual customisation of the threshold time limit, contact ecommpay technical support.
Processing scenarios
A a purchase by using the OVO Wallet method can be processed with or without the redirection of the customer, while processing of a payout requires a notification of the customer via the web service.
Scenarios for performing operations via the main interfaces of the payment platform correspond to those presented in the diagrams. Similarly, when additional features (such as payment links) are used, scenarios for performing operations also correspond to the specifics of those features.
Purchase by using Payment Page. Channel 1: without redirection of the customer
General information
To process a purchase through Payment Page by using the OVO Wallet method, the merchant's web service is required to send a request with all required parameters and signature to the ecommpay URL and receive a callback with the result. The full sequence and special aspects of purchase processing are provided below.
Information about the formats of requests and callbacks used for processing payments by using the OVO Wallet method via Payment Page is presented further in this section; general information about working with the Payment Page API is presented in Interaction concepts.
Request format
There are several things you need to consider when using the OVO Wallet method:
- The following parameters required for any payment must be specified:
project_id
—project identifier obtained from ecommpay during integrationpayment_id
—payment identifier unique within the projectpayment_currency
—payment currency code in the ISO-4217 alpha-3 formatpayment_amount
—payment amount in the smallest currency unitcustomer_id
—customer identifier unique within the project
- The following parameters required for any payment must be specified:
project_id
,payment_id
,payment_currency
,payment_amount
,customer_id
. - It is recommended to specify the OVO account identifier of the customer (must consist of no more than 15 digits) in the
customer_account_number
additional parameter. If the parameter is missing, the payment form may display the input field for entering the missing value (details are available in Submission of additional payment information). - If you need to have the payment form displayed with the OVO Wallet method selected, set the
force_payment_method
parameter toovo
. - Additionally, any other parameters available for working with Payment Page can be used (details).
- After all target parameters are specified, generate a signature (details).
Thus, a correct request for opening the payment form using the OVO Wallet method must contain the project identifier, basic payment information (identifier, amount, and currency code), customer identifier and account number, as well as signature.
Callback format
The OVO Wallet method uses the standard format for callbacks to deliver purchase results. For more information, see Callbacks.
The following is the example of a callback with information about a 10,000.00 IDR
purchase made in the 239
project.
The following is the example of a callback with information about a declined purchase.

Payouts by using Dashboard
When working with Dashboard, you can process single and mass payouts by using the OVO Wallet method.
- To process a single payout, open the payout form, specify all required parameters (including the payment method), send a request and verify that the payout has been processed.
-
To process a mass payout, prepare and upload a file with information about all target payouts, send a batch request, and verify that the payouts have been processed.
Use a CSV file structured according to the requirements presented in the Mass payments data section. The payout parameters must comply with the requirements (you do not have to generate a signature because it is specified by Dashboard).
More information about processing payouts by using Dashboard is presented in a separate section.
Analysis of payment results
To analyse information about payments made with the OVO Wallet method and other methods, you can use:
- Dashboard interface toolkit with various lists and analytic panels.
- Reports in CSV file format, available via the Reports section (one-time and periodically).
- Data in JSON format, sent by program requests to a specified URL available by using the Data API interface.
If you have any questions, refer to the documentation (Dashboard and Using Data API) and ecommpay technical support.
