Some payment methods are a network of connected banks or card issuers. In these cases, after selecting the payment method, the customer may still need to select the appropriate issuer before the payment can proceed.
We provide hosted issuer selection screens, but these screens can be skipped by providing the issuer via the API up front.
The full list of issuers for a specific method can be retrieved via the Methods API by using the optional issuers include.
A valid issuer for iDEAL is for example ideal_INGBNL2A (for ING Bank).
