In cases where payer chooses specific payment method in the webstore, the available payment methods must be queried online for each order. This is essential, since the available payment methods depend on the total amount of the order. Some payment methods include restrictions regarding the total amount (min and max). To tackle this, the API contains a parameter total amount which dictates what payment methods are to be included in the response. In other words, in case of small (e.g. below 70 €) and large (e.g. over 2000 €) orders some of the payment methods are not available for the buyer to choose from. At the moment, only bank, card and mobile payment methods are always available regardless the total amount of the order. However, if web store has net settlements in use, each order's total amount must exceed the minimum transaction fee. This is not applicable when web store uses gross settlements where transaction fees are billed afterwards by invoice.

The payment method codes (<code>) values of the response are then used in Payment interface call as the value of parameter pmt_paymentmethod.

O

Extra payment method fee that is added to the payment total amount.

Important! This is only applicable in cases where the web store has agreed upon an extra fee for some payment methods. It is not recommended to use this feature but in cases where extra fee cannot be added in the web store, we have this one solution for it.

If this value is present in the response, web store software must take it into account when handling new payment OK response. That is, OK response's pmt_sellercosts value is larger than the value web store sent in original payment request. It is increased by this extra payment method fee amount if the payer chose this payment method.

extrapaymentmethodfee
attr: currency

e.g. 5,00
e.g. EUR
