Get the brands and other details of a card POST

Use this endpoint to get information about the card or network token that enables you to decide on the routing of the transaction and the eligibility of the card for the type of transaction. If you include [your supported brands](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/cardDetails__reqParam_supportedBrands) in the request, the response also tells you if you support each [brand that was identified on the card](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/Checkout/latest/post/cardDetails#responses-200-brands). If you have an API-only integration and collect card data, use this endpoint to find out if the shopper's card is co-bad. For co-badged cards, you must let the shopper choose the brand to pay with if you support both brands. ## Server-side API libraries We provide open-source [server-side API libraries](https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/libraries/) in several languages: - PHP - Java - Node.js - .NET - Go - Python - Ruby - Apex (beta) See our [integration examples](https://github.com/adyen-examples#%EF%B8%8F-official-integration-examples) for example uses of the libraries. ## Developer resources BIN Lookup API is available through a Postman collection.

Start a transaction POST

Sends payment parameters (like amount, country, and currency) together with other required input details collected from the shopper. To know more about required parameters for specific payment methods, refer to our [payment method guides](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods). The response depends on the [payment flow](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods#payment-flow): * For a direct flow, the response includes a `pspReference` and a `resultCode` with the payment result, for example **Authorised** or **Refused**. * For a redirect or additional action, the response contains an `action` object.
