Adds industry-specific transaction details and purchase data for cards and KlarnaPublic preview
What’s new
Adds fields for card and Klarna payments to specify industry-specific transaction details:
- Car rentals: payment_details.car_rental_data
- Lodging: payment_details.lodging_data
- Flights: payment_details.flight_data
You can provide additional transaction details for Klarna payments payment_method_options.klarna.supplementary_purchase_data to specify train, bus, ferry trips, round-trips, insurance, vouchers, marketplace sellers, and event reservations.
Impact
Include these optional fields when creating or updating a PaymentIntent using supported payment methods. This data helps payment processors better understand transactions, and can lead to more accurate risk scoring and improved approval rates.
You must provide industry-specific transaction details for certain merchant category codes to comply with card network requirements and to avoid potential cost downgrades. For Klarna, this additional context can improve how payments are assessed through Klarna’s risk assessment systems.
