Webhook Specification

Your system must expose a webhook endpoint to receive transaction notifications from DCS. After receiving a notification, validate the X-Auth-Signature, settlementId, and accountNumber, then respond a

Webhook Logic Requirements:

Validate X-Auth-Signature using SHA512(Client-Id:ClientSecret).
Confirm settlementId and accountNumber exist and are valid.
Return:
- "success" (code 00) if valid.
- "duplicate transaction" (code 01) if settlementId already processed.
- "rejected transaction" (code 02) if request is invalid.
- "system failure, retry" (code 03) for internal errors.
