Sofort Payment Process
When users submit your form, they will be redirected to Sofort’s payment page to complete the payment process. Here’s a demo:

Notes
- The payment completion might take up to 10 minutes. In this case, you will find the payment from the Incomplete Payment section of the Jotform Tables.
- If you complete a payment from the Incomplete Payment section, you won’t see the Transaction ID in form emails, Jotform Tables, and Inbox even after you receive the payment. In this case, we recommend waiting for the payment to complete.
- Manually completed submissions in forms integrated with Sofort will always increase your payment submission count, even if they are in test mode.
Viewing Payments with Sofort
At Sofort, you can view the transactions under the Bank Transfer section. Here’s how you can do that:
- Go to the Bank Transfer section of your Sofort dashboard.
- Scroll down and look for the payment made through your form.
- Click the Transaction ID to view the full payment details, including the Form ID and Submission ID.


For test transactions, you have the option to simulate the results as shown in the below image:

ho creato il nuovo progetto con Sofort. Adesso vorrei inserirlo nel modulo ma non si evidenzia nei metodi di pagamento. Sofort dice che: " Si prega di notare che con il numero ID di progetto di 6 cifre, gli ID delle transazioni aumenteranno di una cifra. Saranno eventualmente necessarie anche modifiche ala tua piattaforma. A tale riguardo, si prega di contattare il produttore della piattaforma".
Resto in attesa di un vostro cortese riscontro.
Cordiali saluti
