API ordering supports multiple payment methods. Only checkout profiles using one of these methods below can be used in API ordering. Credit cards[(EC)]  or alternative payment methods, such as Alipay, WeChat, or Unionpay are not supported at this time for API ordering.

  • Bank transfer – This payment method is offered in a number of countries and currencies. Any customer with a bank account can initiate bank transfer and does not require onboarding. Bank transfers typically do not have any transactional limitations and therefore promote higher purchasing power and flexibility. In order to comply with customers’ internal authorization and compliance procedures, you will be asked to provide an email address of an approver upon checkout profile creation. That could be a person authorized to initiate payments on behalf of your company. However, for API ordering the approver will default to your company account’s administrator. Upon order placement, the approver will receive an email from TI with instructions to complete the approval process. The approver has three days to accept the order before its expiration and cancellation.  Upon successful approval, TI must receive the payment in full within eight days or else the order will be cancelled. For more information regarding this payment method please visit our FAQ.
