Configure card payments and express checkout

To accept credit and debit card payments and enable express checkout with Apple Pay and Google Pay on your PrestaShop store, configure the card payment settings in the Airwallex module.

Before you begin

• You have configured your API credentials and webhooks.
• The card schemes you want to accept are activated in your Airwallex account. Log in to the Airwallex web app and go to Payments > Payment methods to verify.

Enable card payments

1. In the PrestaShop Back Office, go to Modules > Airwallex > Configure.

2. Navigate to App Settings > Cards.

3. Configure the following settings:

   Setting	Values	Default
   Enable Card Payments	On / Off	Off
   Transaction Type	Authorize and capture / Authorize only	Authorize and capture
   Display Name	String (max 200 characters)	"Credit card"
   Card Schemes	Visa, Mastercard, Amex, JCB, Discover, UnionPay	All available
   Card Element Type	Single element / Split elements	Single element

4. Click Save.

Card schemes are fetched dynamically from the Airwallex API based on your account's activated payment methods. Select only the card schemes that are activated in your Airwallex account.

Card element types

• Single element (default) — One unified input field that collects card number, expiry date, and CVC together.
• Split elements — Separate fields for card number, expiry date, and CVC, which allows more control over checkout layout.

Transaction types

• Authorize and capture (default) — Payments are captured automatically when the order is placed.
• Authorize only — Payments are authorized at order placement and must be captured manually from the order detail page in the Back Office via the Airwallex payment management tab.

Enable Apple Pay

1. In the card settings, toggle Apple Pay to On.

2. Configure the button appearance:

   Setting	Values	Default
   Button Theme	Dark / Light	Dark
   Button Call to Action	Only icon / Buy / Donate / Book	Only icon
   Display Locations	Product page, Cart page	Both

3. Click Save.

Apple Pay domain verification

When Apple Pay is enabled, the module automatically:

1. Copies the apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association file to <prestashop_root>/.well-known/.

2. Registers your store's domain with Airwallex via the Apple Pay Domain API.

If automatic domain verification fails, manually place the domain association file at:

1https://your-store.com/.well-known/apple-developer-merchantid-domain-association

You can download this file from your Airwallex web app under Settings > Apple Pay > Add Domain.

Enable Google Pay

1. In the card settings, toggle Google Pay to On.

2. Configure the button appearance using the same Button Theme, Button Call to Action, and Display Locations settings as Apple Pay.

3. Click Save.

Google Pay requires the googlepay payment method to be activated in your Airwallex account. No additional domain verification is needed.
