About this skill

Tikkie Webhooks

Tikkie is ABN AMRO's payment-request product. This skill covers notification subscriptions in the Tikkie API v2 (2.3.x):

  • Production: https://api.abnamro.com/v2/tikkie
  • Sandbox: https://api-sandbox.abnamro.com/v2/tikkie

Every API call carries an API-Key header (the consumer key from your ABN AMRO developer portal app) and an X-App-Token header (a UUID app token from the Tikkie Business Portal).

This skill does not cover ABN AMRO's separate Business Account Notification API (bank-account transaction webhooks) or the retired Tikkie v1 API. Their schemes differ, so don't mix them.

When to Use This Skill

  • How do I receive Tikkie payment notifications?
  • How do I verify a Tikkie webhook signature? (You can't, because Tikkie doesn't sign them.)
  • How do I subscribe to Tikkie notifications (/paymentrequestssubscription, /transactionssubscription)?
  • How do I handle PAYMENT, REFUND and BUNDLE notifications?
  • Why doesn't the Tikkie notification include the amount or status?

Verification (core): there is no signature

The official OpenAPI spec (TikkieAPI_v2.3.yaml) defines only a JSON request body and a 2XX acknowledgement for notification callbacks. It defines no signature header, shared secret, HMAC, timestamp header or asymmetric signature, and ABN AMRO publishes no source-IP allowlist. Do not write an HMAC verifier for Tikkie. You'd have to invent the inputs, because Tikkie sends none.

Use these mitigations instead. They reduce risk, but they don't prove who sent the request:

// 1. Weak check: subscriptionId must equal the id returned (201) when you subscribed.
const allowed = process.env.TIKKIE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID.split(',').map((s) => s.trim());
if (!allowed.includes(body.subscriptionId)) return res.status(403).end();

// 2. Strong check: the notification only carries tokens. Re-fetch the real record.
const path = {
  PAYMENT: `/paymentrequests/${body.paymentRequestToken}/payments/${body.paymentToken}`,
  REFUND:  `/paymentrequests/${body.paymentRequestToken}/payments/${body.paymentToken}/refunds/${body.refundToken}`,
  BUNDLE:  `/transactionbundles/${body.bundleId}`,
}[body.notificationType];
const r = await fetch(`${process.env.TIKKIE_API_BASE_URL}${path}`, {
  headers: { 'API-Key': process.env.TIKKIE_API_KEY, 'X-App-Token': process.env.TIKKIE_APP_TOKEN },
});
if (r.status === 404) return res.status(403).end(); // made-up tokens → forged
const record = await r.json(); // amountInCents, status, … come from HERE, never the notification

You can also register a hard-to-guess callback URL (for example, one with a random path segment). Tikkie doesn't document query-string secrets. The spec only requires url to be a valid URL.

For complete handlers with tests, see examples/express/, examples/nextjs/, examples/fastapi/.

Notification Types

There's no event-type header. Dispatch on the notificationType body field:

notificationType Subscription Fields (besides subscriptionId) Re-fetch with
PAYMENT /paymentrequestssubscription paymentRequestToken, paymentToken GET /paymentrequests/{paymentRequestToken}/payments/{paymentToken}
REFUND /paymentrequestssubscription paymentRequestToken, paymentToken, refundToken GET /paymentrequests/{paymentRequestToken}/payments/{paymentToken}/refunds/{refundToken}
BUNDLE /transactionssubscription bundleId GET /transactionbundles/{bundleId} 
{"subscriptionId":"6289db02-d422-4e93-b65c-30fa973bd341","notificationType":"PAYMENT",
 "paymentRequestToken":"qzdnzr8hnVWTgXXcFRLUMc","paymentToken":"21ef7413-cc3c-4c80-9272-6710fada28e4"}

Notifications carry no amount, status, timestamp or id fields. If you get an unknown notificationType or an unknown field, log it and return 2xx.

Delivery and Retries

  • Delivery is an HTTP POST with Content-Type: application/json. Respond with any 2XX.
  • From the spec: "best-effort approach ... retry mechanism with a maximum of three attempts. However, you should not rely solely on notifications and are encouraged to have a GET implemented". Run a reconciliation poll as well.
  • Because retries can duplicate deliveries, make the handler idempotent. Deduplicate on paymentToken (PAYMENT), refundToken (REFUND) or bundleId (BUNDLE).

Environment Variables

TIKKIE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=   # from the 201 subscribe response; comma-separate both subscriptions
TIKKIE_API_KEY=           # API-Key header (developer.abnamro.com app consumer key)
TIKKIE_APP_TOKEN=         # X-App-Token header (Tikkie Business Portal, or POST /sandboxapps)
TIKKIE_API_BASE_URL=https://api-sandbox.abnamro.com/v2/tikkie

If TIKKIE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID is unset, the examples log a warning and skip the check. If the API credentials are unset, they skip the re-fetch. Don't fulfil orders in production with either check skipped.

Local Development

npx hookdeck-cli listen 3000 tikkie --path /webhooks/tikkie

No account is needed. Register the printed URL with POST /paymentrequestssubscription. Hookdeck's TIKKIE source type is POST-only and has no verification step, because there's no signature to check. The subscriptionId check and re-fetch still apply when you receive through Hookdeck.

Recommended: webhook-handler-patterns

We recommend installing the webhook-handler-patterns skill alongside this one. It covers handler sequence, idempotency, error handling and retry logic. Key references (open on GitHub):

  • Handler sequence: validate first, dispatch second, handle idempotently third
  • Idempotency: prevent duplicate processing (dedupe on paymentToken / refundToken / bundleId)
  • Error handling: return codes, logging and dead-letter queues
  • Retry logic: provider retry schedules and backoff patterns
