# ANCV via 1Point6

> Let customers pay using ANCV (Chèque-Vacances) via 1Point6 on your website or mobile application.

ANCV via 1Point6 is a QR-code-based payment method using the French holiday voucher scheme (Chèque-Vacances Connect). The end user scans the QR code using the ANCV mobile app to complete the payment. EUR only, targeted at the French travel and leisure market.

<Note>
  ANCV does **not** support refunds. It is a prepaid product — refunds are architecturally impossible. Do not surface a refund option to merchants using ANCV-only flows.

## Get started with ANCV via 1Point6

### Before you begin

If this is your first payment method, make sure to follow the [Get started guide](/docs/get-started/overview) to begin processing payments with Primer.

### Configure in the Dashboard

1. **Add 1Point6 to your Dashboard**\
   Go to the [Connections](/docs/connections/payment-methods) section of the Dashboard and look for `1Point6`. Follow the instructions to connect your 1Point6 account to your Primer Dashboard.

2. **Activate ANCV via 1Point6 on the Checkout**\
   Go to the [Checkout](/docs/checkout) section of the Dashboard and activate the ANCV payment method.

3. **Configure a Workflow to process payments made with ANCV**\
   Go to [Workflows](/docs/workflows), set up the **Authorization** step to process APMs. No need to add **Capture**. Finish the workflow with a **Continue payment flow** action.

### Prepare the client session

ANCV via 1Point6 leverages the following parameters to process a payment. Pass them when creating the client session.

| Parameter Name | Required | Description |
| - | - | - |
| `metadata.payin_items` | ✓ | Pre-assembled array of payin items including `amount`, `reference`, `quantity`, `tax_rate`, and `transfers`. Must be assembled by TSPay — Primer's Metadata Mapper cannot produce arrays. |

### Testing in sandbox

The end user must have the **ANCV mobile app** installed. Scan the QR code in the app to simulate a successful payment.
