How do I load the card PAN, CVV, and expiration date?

When you create a payment intent, you will receive a parameter called elements. These elements consist of various HTML codes that you need to render on the page within a submission form. For the card element (ccElement or ccMotoElement), you need to add our custom jQuery to the head of your HTML document. Once you have successfully done this, you will see a black card icon next to the card input.

What does a developer need to develop an integration?

To create an integration, you will first need to obtain your API Key and Secret Key. These can be located on your Blink account. To generate your keys, select the option to Enable the API next to your profile.

What is the payment flow?

Blink offers card (MOTO), Card (ECOM), open banking and Direct Debit. Discover diagrams showcasing all of the steps involved in processing each type of payment method, as well as whether the action is on your server, the client, or through a redirect URL.
