How to Check Which Payment Types a Seller Supports
As a Buyer, you can run a Metadata query to check which payment options a Seller supports. Additionally, the specific payment types returned through the integration for your credentials depend on your account settings in the Seller’s system and the terms you’ve agreed upon.
Since payment terms are established between Buyers and Sellers, we recommend reaching out directly to the Seller for any commercial discussions.
