## How Naver Pay Works

Naver Pay on Dodo Payments is implemented as a method-specific orchestration flow, not a generic on/off toggle. Naver Pay is a **wallet redirect + in-app approval** method widely used across South Korea's Naver ecosystem. The buyer selects Naver Pay, approves the payment inside the Naver app, and returns to checkout with final status delivered by webhook. The checkout experience should treat intermediate states carefully: redirect started, customer returned, and final webhook confirmation can occur at different moments. Fulfillment logic should trigger only on a terminal success state.

Core operational points:
- **Display by eligibility** so Naver Pay appears only for valid country/currency corridors.
- **Handle asynchronous updates** and keep order state idempotent while payment status settles.
- **Track method analytics** (attempt rate, success rate, abandonment, and retry outcomes) by device and market.

## Where It's Available

Naver Pay is available in **South Korea**, supports payments in **KRW**, and has a minimum transaction amount of **KRW 1,000** (approximately $1). Transactions are processed **instantly** and Naver Pay is offered for subscriptions. Dodo Payments automatically shows Naver Pay to eligible customers based on their country, currency, and device -- no manual configuration needed.

Availability controls to keep accurate:
- **Country + currency gating** in checkout rendering logic.
- **Transaction-type awareness** since Naver Pay supports recurring subscription billing.
- **Fallback sequencing** so users still see a strong alternative if Naver Pay is unavailable.

## Use Cases

Naver Pay should be positioned where it naturally increases buyer confidence and reduces checkout friction. Naver Pay is strong for South Korean consumer audiences with high wallet adoption and mobile purchasing behavior, including recurring-friendly checkout. It can lift conversion where users prefer app-based payments over manual card entry. It is most effective when merchants monitor method-level performance and continuously tune ranking rather than treating payment order as static.

Strong deployment patterns:
- **Market-specific checkout mixes** instead of one global payment stack.
- **Segment-aware presentation** (new vs returning users, mobile vs desktop, low vs high ticket).
- **Recovery flows** that offer an immediate alternative when Naver Pay is declined or abandoned.

## Integration with Dodo Payments

In Dodo Payments, Naver Pay appears as a dedicated payment option in hosted checkout and can be controlled through method eligibility settings. The API type string for this method is **`naver-pay`**. This keeps backend logic explicit and avoids ambiguous mapping when multiple wallets, cards, and bank methods are active.

Implementation checklist:
- **Enable `naver-pay`** for valid regions and currencies.
- **Consume webhooks** for final success, failure, and reversal states.
- **Reconcile method-level settlements** in finance reporting and refund operations.

This approach makes Naver Pay a measurable growth lever instead of a static payment checkbox.
