What You Need to Connect
- A bank account with Tochka Bank (tochka.com)
- Sole proprietor, LLC/JSC, or self-employed status (individuals without status cannot accept payments)
- Internet acquiring enabled in the Tochka dashboard
Tochka is available on all tikento plans, including Free.
Step 1. Bank Account with Tochka
If you don't have a Tochka account yet, open one at tochka.com. You will need:
- For sole proprietors: passport, TIN, OGRNIP
- For LLCs: charter, director appointment order, company TIN
- For self-employed: passport, self-employed registration certificate
Account opening usually takes 1 business day.
Step 2. Connecting Internet Acquiring
In the Tochka dashboard:
- Go to the "Acquiring" → "Internet acquiring" section.
- Click "Submit request".
- Specify the website URL:
app.tikento.com. - Describe the activity: "Ticket sales and event registration".
- Wait for approval (usually 1-2 business days).
After approval, API keys for integration will become available.
Step 3. Obtaining API Keys
In the Tochka dashboard:
- Open "Integration" → "API".
- Copy the merchantId — your merchant identifier.
- Click "Generate key" and copy the apiKey.
The key is shown only once. If lost, generate a new one — the old one will be invalidated.
Step 4. Configuration in tikento
- Open your organization's Settings in tikento.
- Go to the Payments → Tochka section.
- Enter
merchantIdandapiKey. - Click "Test connection".
On a successful test, a green "Connected" status will appear along with a list of available payment methods.
Available Payment Methods
After connecting Tochka, the following are automatically available:
- Bank cards — Visa, Mastercard, MIR
- SBP — payment via bank app by QR code or link
- Apple Pay / Google Pay — if configured on Tochka's side
Enable or disable each method with toggles in the Payments → Tochka → Methods section.
Step 5. Webhook Configuration
After a successful test, tikento will display a webhook URL like:
https://app.tikento.com/webhooks/tochka/{merchantId}
In the Tochka dashboard:
- Open "Integration" → "Notifications" (or "Webhooks").
- Add the webhook URL from tikento.
- Select events for notifications:
payment.success— successful paymentpayment.fail— failed paymentrefund.success— successful refund
Without a configured webhook, tikento will not be able to automatically update payment statuses.
Step 6. Testing
Tochka provides a test mode. To verify:
- Make sure test mode is active in the Tochka settings.
- Create a test event with a paid ticket in tikento.
- Open the registration form and select card payment.
- Use the test card:
4111 1111 1111 1111(any future date, any 3 digits for CVV). - After payment, check that the attendee's status in tikento updated to "Paid".
If the webhook did not arrive, check the URL and event filters in the Tochka settings. More about diagnostics — Webhook Not Received: Troubleshooting.
Step 7. Switching to Production Mode
When testing is complete:
- In the Tochka dashboard, switch internet acquiring to production mode.
- Replace the test
apiKeywith the production one in tikento settings (Settings → Payments → Tochka). - Click "Test connection" again.
After this, tikento will start accepting real payments through Tochka.
Commissions
tikento does not mark up the acquiring fee — it passes through from the bank. You pay:
- Tochka's commission for acquiring (the rate depends on your bank tariff, usually ~2-2.5%)
- tikento commission per paid ticket — depends on your plan
