Payment Method Permissions

Understanding how permissions work for payment methods

Payment method permissions in Authvia control how merchants can use customer payment methods. There are two main ways permissions are granted:

Merchant-Initiated Permissions

When you add a payment method to a customer's account, you automatically receive permission to use that payment method for transactions.

Customer-Initiated Permissions

Customers can grant you permission to use their payment methods through the Payment Method Action. This happens when customers provide their payment information through your business processes.
