# Initiate GPay Redirect Transaction

Initiates the Garanti Pay redirect flow by creating a redirect-type transaction record and storing the resulting transaction identifier in the checkout session. After successful submission, the flow advances to `GPayCompletePage`, which supplies the external redirect URL to the Garanti Pay hosted payment page.

**Request Body**:

* No input fields are required. The request body must be empty. Submit the POST with no body, or pass an empty form-encoded payload `{}`.

**Processing Flow**:

1. The client IP address is captured from the incoming request and stored in the checkout session for transaction logging and fraud prevention.
2. A redirect-type transaction record is persisted with the following attributes:
   * Transaction identifier: `REDIRECT_GPAY_{order_number}`
   * Transaction type: `redirect`
   * Succeeded flag: `true`
   * 3D Secure flag: `false`
   * Amount: the order total inclusive of any applicable installment interest
   * Currency: taken from the checkout session currency
3. The persisted transaction identifier is written into the checkout session state, marking this step as complete and enabling the `is_already_done` check on subsequent GET requests.

**Backward Navigation**:

* When the user navigates back from this step, the stored redirect transaction identifier and any redirect-state marker are removed from the checkout session, reverting the flow to the GPay Selection step.

**Next Page**:

* `GPayCompletePage` — Provides the redirect URL and processes the Garanti Pay callback once the user returns from the external hosted payment page.

**Error Handling**:

* If the POS configuration is missing or invalid, transaction creation fails and an error is returned. The checkout session is not modified on failure.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://apidocs.akinon.com/commerce-openapis/checkout/alternative-payment-methods/initiate-gpay-redirect-transaction.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
