Charge First Payment Automatically after NACH Registration

You can register a customer's mandate and charge them the first recurring payment as part of the same transaction. For this you have to pass the first_payment_amount parameter while creating the order.

The flow to complete an authorisation transaction using paper NACH differs from the other payment method's flow.

Create a customer.
Create an order by passing the customer_id and the method as nach. Razorpay generates a NACH form with the customer information pre-filled and ready to sign.
The customer can get the form in one of the following ways to sign it:
- You can download the form from the Dashboard and send it to the customer.
- A customer can download the form from the Hosted page (in the case of registration links).
The signed form can be uploaded in one of the following ways:
- Using the Standard Checkout page.
- Hosted page (in the case of registration links).
- The customer can send you the form and you can upload the form for the customer. The acceptable image formats and size are:
  - jpeg
  - jpg
  - png
  - Maximum accepted size is 6 MB.

Once the details are validated, the authorisation transaction is completed, and a token is generated. You can charge your customer as per your business model after the token status changes to confirmed.

Feature Request

This is an on-demand feature. Please raise a request with our
Support team
to get this feature activated on your Razorpay account.
Watch this video to know how to raise a feature enablement request on the Razorpay Dashboard.

Use the following endpoint to upload the signed Paper NACH form via the API.

POST

/payments/create/nach/file

Use the following API to upload the NACH file sent by the customer.

Error Reasons

The below table lists the errors that may appear while uploading the NACH file, the reason, explanation and next steps:

1.2. Using a Registration Link

Registration Link is an alternate way of creating an authorization transaction. You can create a registration link using the

API

Dashboard

Handy Tips

You do not have to create a customer if you choose the registration link method for creating an authorization transaction.

When you create a registration link, an
invoice
is automatically issued to the customer. They can use this invoice to make the authorization payment.
A registration link should always have an order amount (in paise) the customer will be charged when making the authorization payment. This amount should be 0 in the case of Paper NACH.

Handy Tips

You can

use Webhooks to get notifications about successful payments

against a registration link.
