Capture Context

The capture context request is a signed JSON Web Token (JWT) that includes all of the merchant-specific parameters. This request tells the frontend JavaScript library how to behave within your payment experience. For information on JSON Web Tokens, see JSON Web Tokens.
You can define the payment cards and digital payments that you want to accept in the capture context. Use the
allowedCardNetworks
 field to define the card types.
Available card networks for card entry:
  • American Express
  • China UnionPay
  • Diners Club
  • Discover
  • JCB
  • Mastercard
  • Visa
IMPORTANT
Click to Pay
 supports American Express, Mastercard, and Visa for saved cards.
IMPORTANT
Unified Checkout Integration
 does not process transactions for cards that do not have a card verification number (CVN) and expiration date. Most China UnionPay debit and credit cards issued before 2016 do not have a CVN and expiration date.
Use the
allowedPaymentTypes
 field to define the digital payment methods.

{
  "targetOrigins" : [ "https://www.test.com" ],

    },
  }
