How we added online apartment booking through an acquiring bank
In PDP, we implemented online payment for an apartment reservation via a payment link: with TTL, redirect to the bank’s page, callback notifications, signature verification, and scenarios for mortgage, installment plan, and full payment.
In PDP, we built something that’s already a must-have in proptech: online payment for an apartment reservation via a payment link. No more “the manager will send over the payment details later” and the other pain from 2019 😅
What we implemented:
• generating a payment link with a limited TTL, so the link wouldn’t live forever;
• redirecting the customer to the bank’s payment page;
• handling callbacks from the bank;
• verifying the digital signature so we only trust valid notifications;
• support for financing scenarios: mortgage, installment plan, full payment.
In practice, we closed a critical part of the funnel: the user picked an apartment — and can immediately secure the reservation before those “certain people” snatch it five minutes faster. In an era when everyone expects marketplace- and fintech-level UX, anything less just doesn’t cut it anymore.
