Authorisation (installment creation)

For installment creation please use the following URL:


Please note that after successful completion of installment creation the customer will need to upload additional documents on Findomestic portal. Findomestic will review the documents, send a contract to the customer in case of success, and the customer will need to sign the contract and upload it again on Findomestic portal. Only after completion of all these steps Findomestic will provide final decision about the installment approval. It can take a couple of days.

In case of positive response from Findomestic, Paygate will automatically activate the installment on Findomestic side and send you a notification about installment approval/declining (refer to Activation).

If the transaction or action is submitted again with the same ReqID, Computop Paygate will not carry out the payment or new action, but will just return the status of the original transaction or action.

Please note that the Computop Paygate must have a finalized transaction status for the first initial action (authentication/authorisation). This does not apply to 3-D Secure authentications that are terminated by a timeout. The 3-D Secure Timeout status does not count as a completed status in which the ReqID functionality on Paygate does not take effect. Submissions with identical ReqID for an open status will be processed regularly.

Notice: Please note that a ReqID is only valid for 12 month, then it gets deleted at the Paygate.
