Shoppers are increasingly embracing alternative payment methods, that go beyond traditional card payments.
Adding alternative payment methods to your integration enables you to accept payments aligned with shopper
preferences. Adyen supports the following types of alternative payment methods:
-
Gift card payments:
Gift cards are prepaid payment cards with a stored monetary value. They can be used for making payments and, depending on the provider, can also be loaded with more funds, cashed out, or are disabled. -
One-time numeric code payments:
The shopper generates a unique, single-use numeric code with their bank or payment app. They enter this code on the payment terminal to authorize the transaction. -
QR Code wallet payments:
Enables the shopper to make an in-person payments with a wallet app on their phone, which is linked to their credit or debit card (bank account). In the payment process, the payment terminal and the wallet app communicate through QR
code.
