Adds support for payment line itemsVersion bêta publique
What’s new
You can now add the line items associated with a payment when creating a PaymentIntent by passing in the payment_details and amount_details params.
See detailed feature eligibility, restrictions, and integration docs in the official payment line items documentation.
Impact
Payment line items is a feature in the Payment Intents API that provides benefits for cards and local payment methods processing:
- Cost savings for eligible commercial cards for IC+ users: By passing payment line items, you can participate in the Level 2/Level 3 (L2/L3) program that major card networks administer. For eligible commercial cards, passing line item data can provide interchange fee savings.
- Facilitate reconciliation: Passing line item data can also facilitate reconciliation for your customers. For example, if you primarily serve government customers, it will aid the customer in reconciling a purchase against what shows up on their statement.
- Improved authorization rates: Payment methods like Klarna and PayPal use line item data in their underwriting models, potentially allowing them to approve more credit based payment options when line items data is passed.
