• SnapPay verifies the payment request and returns WeChat Mini Program payment parameters (request_payment) [1.3];

• On the user’s mobile, the merchant’s mini program invokes WeChat Pay and passes in payment parameters [1.4]. User complete the payment [1.5];

• After user pays successfully, WeChat will return payment result to the merchant’s mini program [2.1];

• To ensure the payment is truly successful, merchant should call Query Order API [2.2];

• When SUCCESS status is returned [2.3], merchant update the order status [2.4], and show the success page to the user [2.5];
