Use a stored card

Last Updated: 19 March 2024 | Change Log

The Payments API is for preview only and will be released soon.

Use a stored card

Use a previously stored card to send a payments request. This is for customer initiated transactions (CIT).

Additionally, to collect the CVC value, use the Checkout SDK to create a cvc session and maintain a low PCI burden.

Main objects for this scenario:

  • customerAgreement - used to indicate the customer has agreed to you storing their card
  1. API only
  2. Checkout SDK

Request

  1. Token
  2. Plain card
  3. Recommended Key-values
