Valpay supports payment methods through Adyen. For online integrations built with Drop-in, Components, or API-only, you can accept cards, digital wallets, and a wide range of local and alternative payment methods. This page introduces the main categories and explains how the methods available for a given payment are determined.
Payment method categories
Cards: credit and debit cards from the major schemes. See Card Payments.
Digital wallets: wallet-based methods such as Apple Pay and Google Pay, which let shoppers pay using credentials already stored on their device. See Apple Pay and Google Pay.
Redirect methods: methods where the shopper is redirected to a bank or provider page to authorize the payment, then returned to your site. See Redirect Methods.
Alternative payment methods: local and regional methods (for example bank transfers, buy now pay later, and local wallets) that vary by market. See Alternative Payment Methods.
How available methods are determined
The payment methods a shopper can use for a transaction depend on:
The configuration of your Adyen merchant account, which controls the methods that are enabled.
Transaction details such as country, currency, and amount.
When you use Drop-in or Components, Adyen returns the eligible payment methods for each transaction, so the shopper only sees methods they can actually use.
Enabling payment methods
A payment method must be enabled on your merchant account before you can accept it. To add or enable a specific payment method, contact Valpay.
