Payment Methods in Venddor IO

Introduction

In today's digital world, managing payments seamlessly is crucial for any online business. Venddor IO offers an advanced API system that provides you with the tools you need to handle payments efficiently and with ease.

Pagination for Payments

For better management and retrieval of payment data, Venddor IO supports pagination, allowing users to fetch specific payment records according to their preferences.

The page parameter enables users to navigate through different pages and select the page they wish to view.
To define the number of payments displayed per page, the items_per_page parameter comes into play.

For instance, if you want to view payments from the 5th page, the endpoint to use would be:

http://example.com/api/payments?page=5

This would return an array of 10 payments by default from the fifth page. If you wish to view 20 payments from the initial page, use:

http://example.com/api/payments?items_per_page=20

Understanding Payment Fields

Every payment processed and stored has attributes or properties that define it. Venddor IO offers a broad spectrum of fields to cover all aspects of a payment:

payment: This is a mandatory field representing the name of the payment.
a_surcharge and p_surcharge: Represents absolute and percent surcharges respectively.
company_id: Refers to the ID of the associated company.
description, image, and instructions: They provide additional details about the payment.
lang_code: Specifies the language, which can be English, Russian, among others.
payment_category: Categorises the payment into different sections like credit card payments, internet payments, etc.
processor and processor_id: Provides details about the payment gateway or checkout provider.
status: Indicates the current status of the payment, whether active, disabled, or hidden.

It's essential to note that Venddor IO will disregard any field not explicitly listed in the API request JSON data.
