Connect your live service to Adyen

This is part of going live. Start the go live process before continuing here.

Important

Adyen onboarding is not yet available to all services.

GOV.UK Pay will contact your service’s admin users when Adyen onboarding is available to your service.

An admin user completes the Adyen onboarding tasks for the service in the GOV.UK Pay admin tool.

Read what you need to provide for Adyen onboarding before you start. Then return to this page.

1. Complete Adyen onboarding

Follow the Adyen onboarding tasks in the GOV.UK Pay admin tool.

When you have completed the tasks, Adyen checks the information you provided.

2. Wait for Adyen to complete its checks

GOV.UK Pay will email you when the checks are complete or if Adyen needs more information.

If Adyen needs more information, follow the instructions in the email.

Do not make the £1 payment until GOV.UK Pay confirms that the checks have completed successfully.

3. Make a £1 payment to check the connection

After GOV.UK Pay confirms that the checks have completed successfully, make a £1 payment using a real debit or credit card.

The payment checks that the connection between GOV.UK Pay and Adyen works.

If you are connecting multiple services that use the same bank account details, make the £1 payment only once.
