How to Integrate Adyen Gateway with Checkout Champ
Overview

What this guide covers

This guide walks you through connecting your Checkout Champ account to your Adyen gateway.

In Checkout Champ
01

Activate Adyen v2 in Checkout Champ

  1. 1

    Log in to your Checkout Champ Admin account: app.checkoutchamp.com

  2. 2

    Navigate to CRM → Gateways → Gateway Integrations.

  4. 4

    Click + Activate.

  5. 5

    The Create New Gateway page will open.

Keep two tabs open

Leave this page open — you’ll return to it after gathering credentials from Adyen. Open the Checkout Champ Knowledge Base article for Adyen in a separate tab (you’ll copy a webhook URL from it later).

In Adyen

Locate your Adyen API credentials

  1. 1

    Log in to your Adyen Customer Area.

  2. 2

API key notes

Generate an API Key if one is not already present.

If the gateway will not save

Checkout Champ may occasionally reject API keys containing certain special characters. If the gateway fails to save or authenticate, generate a new API key and try again until it saves successfully.

Copy the API Key — you’ll paste this into Checkout Champ shortly.

  1. 1

    In Adyen, go to Developers → API URLs.
