Payment encryption: creates or replaces the merchant's binding for one provider.
PUT
/api/merchants/{id}/payment-encryption-bindings/{providerName}
deprecated
Requires: Merchants.Merchants.Update, merchant scope.
Example body for a merchant on its own HSM contract, with one TDES DUKPT device family: ``` { "isEnabled": true, "credentialSource": "Merchant", "primaryEndpoint": "https://example-region-a.invalid", "secondaryEndpoint": "https://example-region-b.invalid", "fieldValues": [ { "key": "PaymentEncryption.Example.ClientId", "value": "…" }, { "key": "PaymentEncryption.Example.ClientSecret", "value": "…" } ], "keyEntries": [ { "ksi": "0102030405", "label": "Lane terminals, store 14", "scheme": "Dukpt", "dukptMode": "Tdes", "keyReference": "…", "status": "Active" } ] } ``` For a provider the gateway holds the account for, send `"credentialSource": "Gateway"` and no field values at all: the gateway's own credentials are resolved at decryption time and are never copied onto the merchant. Key entries are the merchant's either way. Omitting a secret, or a key entry's `keyReference`, keeps the value already stored, which is what a caller that read the binding first will naturally send, because reads never return one. A key entry the body omits entirely is <em>removed</em>: a key dropped from the table is a deliberate removal, unlike an omitted secret. Optionally send `If-Match: "<concurrencyStamp>"` for optimistic concurrency (409 on a stale stamp).
Signed in, you can send this request to your own sandbox merchant from the console and read the answer. Sign in to try it.

Every block below sends the same request. Replace {{BASE_URL}} with the address of the API you are calling and {{API_KEY}} with your own key.
The request body is a MerchantPaymentEncryptionBinding. See the Request body section below for its fields.
Parameters
| Name | In | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
id
required |
path | string (uuid) | The merchant id. |
providerName
required |
path | string | The provider to bind (authoritative; any provider on the body is ignored). |
suppressNulls
required |
query | boolean | If true, omit properties with null values. |
Request body
application/json
, required
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
providerName
required |
string | Which payment encryption provider this entry binds the merchant to, by the provider's registered name. Compared case-insensitively. A null or blank provider is treated as no binding at all, so an incompletely boarded row cannot silently become a live selection. Required: When IsEnabled is true. nullablemax length 64 |
isEnabled
required |
boolean | Master enable flag for this provider on this merchant. When `false` or null, the selector must not return this binding even though the row exists. nullable |
credentialSource
required |
all of PaymentEncryptionCredentialSource | Whose provider account the decryption calls are billed to. Null reads as `Gateway`. nullable |
fieldValues
required |
array of PaymentEncryptionBindingFieldValue | The provider-declared configuration values for this merchant, keyed by the setting names the provider declares. <b>Secret values are stored encrypted</b> and are stripped, not decrypted, on every read that leaves the server. Only the server-side call to the provider ever uses the plaintext. Empty for a `Gateway` binding, whose values are filled in at read time from the host-scoped provider settings instead. A gateway-sourced row that carried values would be a copy of the gateway's credentials living on a merchant document. Conditional: When FieldValues is not null. nullable |
keyEntries
required |
array of PaymentEncryptionKeyEntry | The key serial identifier entries that map an inbound key serial number to an HSM key. Conditional: When KeyEntries is not null. nullable |
primaryEndpoint
required |
string | The primary provider endpoint for this merchant, or null to use the provider's own configured endpoint. HTTPS-only, enforced by the binding validator. Conditional: When PrimaryEndpoint is not empty. nullablemax length 512 |
secondaryEndpoint
required |
string | The secondary provider endpoint, used when the primary does not answer. HTTPS-only. Null when the merchant is bound to one region only. Conditional: When SecondaryEndpoint is not empty. Conditional: When SecondaryEndpoint is not empty and PrimaryEndpoint is empty. nullablemax length 512 |
decryptTimeoutMillisecondsOverride
required |
integer (int32) | A per-merchant override of the gateway-wide decryption budget, in milliseconds, or null to use the gateway setting. Conditional: When DecryptTimeoutMillisecondsOverride is not null. Range: 250 to 30000. nullable |

default The request failed. The body carries the standard error envelope: a machine-readable `error.code`, a human-readable `error.message`, and `error.validationErrors` when the failure was a validation rejection. See the error-code reference in this document's description for the values `error.code` can take.

429 The request was refused because a rate limit was exceeded, or because something a later retry can clear stopped it. A rate limit refusal carries an `application/problem+json` body: wait at least the interval `Retry-After` names before retrying, then back off. Limits are tuned per deployment, so read the allowance from the response headers rather than assuming a fixed ceiling. Any other refusal carries the standard error envelope as `application/json`, and its `error.code` names the cause.
