Payment Methods

Mexico

To create a customer payment using a Primary Transaction, you must include the paymentMethod object in the JSON call. Dependent on the requestType, you’ll make some changes to the paymentMethod object to reflect different payment instruments and transaction types.

To take a Card Payment, use the PaymentCardPaymentMethod:

{
  "paymentCard": {
    "number": "5424180279791732",
    "expiryDate": {
      "month": "03",
      "year": "21"
    },
    "securityCode": "977"
  }
}

To take a Token Payment, use the PaymentTokenPaymentMethod:

{
  "paymentToken": {
    "value": "1235325235236",
    "function": "DEBIT",
    "securityCode": "977"
  }
}

Within the paymentMethod object, you’ll provide different values dependent on the payment method type being used for payment. This defines the payment instrument the customer is using to make the transaction. The available options available are defined below. These will be regularly updated as more payment methods become available.

Further information on the payload changes associated with each of these methods is accessed via clicking the paymentMethodType.
