Dear Team,

Is it possible to distinguish card payment and digital wallet payment from the token generated by Square Web SDK?

Thanks.

Yes, it is possible to distinguish between card payments and digital wallet payments from the token generated by Square Web SDK. The token itself doesn’t directly indicate the payment method, but once a payment is made using this token, you can retrieve the payment details using the Payments API. The payment details include the source\_type field which indicates the method of payment. This could be CARD, APPLE\_PAY, or GOOGLE\_PAY, allowing you to distinguish between card payments and digital wallet payments.
