External API - Payments

Context

This article aims to explain steps related to gaining access to the API documentation when integrating a Payment Provider with PAR Ordering Ecosystem, including the NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) process.

NDA

For each integration, a Non-Disclosure Agreement needs to be signed. To make it easier for you to prepare for this process, you may view the NDA template here. A document in a very similar form (filled in with the data of respective parties involved) will be signed after the kick-off meeting.

Process steps

Here's the outline of how the process to gain access to the API goes:

1. First, a kick-off meeting with the 3rd party, PAR Ordering, and you happens
2. Then, it's time to sign the NDA
3. At this point, API or APIs are shared
4. Next, we have a technical kick-off - together with developers
5. We align on the start and estimation of the project
6. Sandbox (testing environment) is prepared
7. Now, Development and Support work on delivering everything needed
8. Finally, Certification and Integration is completed and the project is successfully closed
