Information about the payment type selected by the payer for this payment and the source of the funds.
Depending on the payment type the source of the funds can be a debit or credit card, bank account, or account with a browser payment provider (such as PayPal).
For card payments the source of funds information may be represented by combining one or more of the following: explicitly provided card details, a session identifier which the gateway will use to look up the card details and/or a card token. Precedence rules will be applied in that explicitly provided card details will override session card details which will override card token details. Each of these may represent partial card details, however the combination must result in a full and complete set of card details. See Using Multiple Sources of Card Details for examples.
Information about the source of funds when it is directly provided (as opposed to via a token or session).
For browser payments, the source of funds details are usually collected from the payer on the payment provider's website and provided to you when you retrieve the transaction details (for a successful transaction). However, for some payment types (such as giropay), you must collect the information from the payer and supply it here.
If the payer chose to pay using a Boleto Bancario as a payment method, you must submit sourceOfFunds.type=BOLETO_BANCARIO and provide the additional details in this parameter group.
Enumeration
The action to take if the payment is not honored.
Value must be a member of the following list. The values are case sensitive.

Information about this transaction.
Additional information to be passed to acquirer.
String
Additional information requested by the acquirer which cannot be passed using other available data fields.
This field must not contain sensitive data.
Data can consist of any characters, but sensitive data will be rejected
String
The unique identifier that allows the issuer to link related transactions.
Typically the gateway takes care of submitting this identifier to the issuer on your behalf. However, you must submit this identifier if you have processed the payer-initiated transaction (also called CIT) for the payment agreement outside the gateway or you are submitting a Refund where the Authorization or Payment has been performed outside the gateway.
For a Mastercard transaction this identifier must contain the scheme issued transaction identifier, network code and network date, and is also known as the Trace ID. For a Visa or American Express transaction this identifier matches the scheme issued transaction identifier, also known as Transaction Identifier or TID. Refer to the scheme's documentation for more details.
Payment in a Series
You must provide the information returned in the Authorization/Payment/Verification response for the last payer-initiated transaction in the series (CIT).
Refund
You must provide the information returned in the Authorization/Payment response for the payment for which you are issuing a refund.
Data can consist of any characters, but sensitive data will be rejected
String
This is the value provided to the acquirer to identify the order.
Ideally this will be the order.id, however if that value cannot be used directly, it will be transformed by the gateway to a unique value that the acquirer will accept. If that behavior is not suitable, you can directly provide the value in this field and it will be passed to the acquirer. You then take responsibility for its correctness. (Note: contact your payment provider to see if this is supported for your acquirer).
Data can consist of any characters, but sensitive data will be rejected
Boolean
Indicates that you were not able to submit the Authorization (or Payment) transaction at the time it was completed with the cardholder due to a connectivity, system issue, or other limitations and have deferred submitting it until your system was back online.
The values 'true' or 'false'. (For a complete description, see http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/#boolean.)

Enumeration
Indicates the channel through which you received authorization for the payment for this order from the payer.
For example, set this value to INTERNET if the payer initiated the payment online.
If you have an existing agreement with the payer that authorizes you to process this payment (for example, a recurring payment) then set this value to MERCHANT. You only need to provide transaction.source if you want to override the default value configured for your acquirer link.
Note:
- You can only override the default value if you have the requisite permission.
- The value you provide must match one of those configured by your payment service provider.
- You can only set the transaction source on the initial transaction on an order. It cannot be changed on subsequent transactions.

Each line of business can have different payment parameters, such as bank account, supported cards or such.

Use this field to implement optimistic locking of the session content.
Do this if you make business decisions based on data from the session and wish to ensure that the same data is being used for the request operation.
To use optimistic locking, record session.version when you make your decisions, and then pass that value in session.version when you submit your request operation to the gateway.
