Payment Method Type
A type of payment method that a customer can use for making payments.
A payment method type is a type of payment method that any customer can use, for example, ee_mastercard_card, Mastercard for Estonia. When it is added to a customer profile, it becomes a payment method that is specific to that one customer. The name of the payment method type starts with a prefix for the country, the 2-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code. If the payment method is valid in multiple countries, the prefix is xx_. The payment method type has a suffix with one of the following values:
bank - Bank transfer or bank redirect
card - Credit card, debit card or other card
cash - Cash
ewallet - Local eWallet
If the payment method is a card, the sensitive card details can be handled only by a merchant that is PCI compliant or an app that is under the exclusive control of the card holder. A merchant that is not PCI compliant can use the payment method ID ('token') that is generated by a hosted page. To generate a payment method ID, use one of the following methods:
Add Payment Method to Customer - For clients with PCI clearance.
Create Card Token - For all clients.
