Order API - determine if purchased with credit card, regardess of payment gateway

Shopify Apps

Via the Order Admin REST API or GraphQL API, is it possible to see the payment method for a given order regardless of the payment gateway?

I’m trying to detect if a given order was paid with a credit card, and ignore all other payment method types, like cash, check, ACH, etc.

Hi

I see the transaction resource returns the credit card company https://shopify.dev/api/admin-rest/2022-10/resources/transaction#resource-object
What I have not tested here is what is returned if it is credit card but a different “method” such as payment terms via Shopify Payments.

Thanks @shuleGoing , this was my go to method for about a year, but now the order REST resource no longer includes payment details as of 2023-04 which is the new minimum Shopify Admin API version.

I’m reviewing the order transactions but there doesn’t seem to be an equivalent field to detect credit card payments:

I believe I’ve found a solution.

The PaymentDetails on an OrderTransaction does provide a company field.

This might be the equivalent of the old REST order.payment_details.company_name, at least I’m hoping so.

I can see that an order paid with the Bogus Gateway will have this path filled, but unfortunately it looks like Development Stores no longer Cash on Delivery (COD) as a valid payment, so I can’t test further.

But for anyone else finding this thread, here’s the query I’m trying to detect a credit card payment with:


query getOrderPaymentDetails($id: ID!) {
order(id: $id) {
transactions(first: 5) {
paymentDetails {
... on CardPaymentDetails {
company
}
}
}
}

The hope is that testing for the presence of the company field like with order.transactions.some(txn => txn.paymentDetails?.company) will detect a credit card payment instead of a cash, PayPal, etc payment.
