Transactional Flow
The transactional flow label helps identify how the payment brand will behave when the user uses it. This label will help you understand how completing a transaction with this payment brand will fit into your site.
Label
Description
MODAL
All interactions will be done on the same page using an HTML modal that sits above your webpage, or will be done using pop up frames.
REDIRECT
All interactions will be done by completing a full page redirect to the payment brand, and receiving the customer back on a full page redirect back from the merchant.
BACKEND
This method does not have a UI. All consumer interaction is proxied through your back end via B2B API calls.
Service Type
The service type describes what kind of services the payment brand will provide. In some cases, you may simply get a card number back from the payment brand, and you will be required to authorize and capture like any normal credit card transaction. In other cases, the payment brand will handle the authorization of funds and return the status of the authorization attempt back to you.
Label
