Tilopay.getCardType()

SDK 2.1.1

Returns the card brand from the number the customer already typed into tlpy_cc_number (or from the saved card they picked). The typical use is showing the brand icon.

Signature#

await Tilopay.getCardType()

It takes no parameters.

Precondition: the customer must have already typed the card number or picked a saved card.

Call#

const type = await Tilopay.getCardType();

Response#

{
  "message": "visa"
}

messagestring#

The card brand, in lowercase. If the brand is not recognized, it is empty.

Brand values#

Status	Values
Supported	`visa`, `mastercard`, `amex`
Not supported	`elo`, `visaelectron`, `maestro`, `forbrugsforeningen`, `dankort`, `hipercard`, `dinersclub`, `discover`, `unionpay`, `jcb`, `laser`

Use the result for presentation only: brand validation happens when Tilopay processes the charge, not in this method.
