Payment types

Payment types refer to the method of tracking payment-related information used by the seller organization.

The standard payment types provided are as follows:

  • CREDIT_CARD
  • CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT
  • CHECK
  • OTHER

A seller organization can define any number of custom payment types. All of the payment methods used in an order must be of payment types that have already been configured as valid payment types for that Seller.

For each payment type, the charging sequence and the refund sequence can be specified in the seller configuration. A charge sequence number (or refund sequence number) of 0 has the highest priority, followed by 1 and so on. Multiple payment types can have the same sequence number. If the sequence is not specified, all payment types are assumed to be of the same priority. The charge sequence and refund sequence are independent of each other.
