# List payment methods

Returns the payment methods configured for the Location - what the business accepts and how
each method settles. This is the only source of `payment_method_id` for `createPayment`.
It does not say whether a method can pay a particular visit: read `visit.payment_methods`
for that, or `searchLoyaltyInstrument` for a gift card or membership held by number. Both
return `ApplicablePaymentMethod`, a different shape from this one.
Cursor-paginated list. Default ordering: name, id tie-breaker. Cursors use the `cursor` query parameter, expire after one hour, and are bound to the credential, tenant, list, and filters. Expired, malformed, foreign, or re-filtered cursors fail with `422 validation_failed` using field codes `expired_cursor`, `invalid_cursor`, `foreign_cursor`, or `filter_changed`.

Endpoint: GET /locations/{location_id}/payment_methods
Version: 3.0.0-preview
Security: OAuth2, ApiKey

## Security:

  - `OAuth2` (unknown)
    oauth2 scopes: checkout:read

  - `ApiKey` (unknown)
    http bearer

## Path parameters:

  - `location_id` (integer, required)
    Identifier of the Location. Verified against the credential on every call — a Location the credential cannot access responds with `404`.

## Query parameters:

  - `limit` (integer)
    Page size for cursor pagination. Default is 25; maximum is 100. Values outside 1..100 or non-integers fail with `422 validation_failed`; the value is never clamped.

  - `cursor` (string)
    Opaque cursor from `next_cursor`. An empty value is the same as omitting the parameter and returns the first page. Cursors expire one hour after the response that issued them (every page issues a fresh cursor) and are bound to credential, tenant, list, filters, and ordering; for OAuth the credential is the user's authorization, so a cursor survives a token refresh; a row whose ordering column changed between pages may be skipped or returned twice, and a row created while you page may be missing from this pass if it sorts before the current position (start a new pass to pick it up); expired, malformed, foreign, or re-filtered cursors fail with `422 validation_failed` using field codes `expired_cursor`, `invalid_cursor` (also a cursor whose number of key values does not match the list's ordering), `foreign_cursor` (another credential or tenant), or `filter_changed` (another list, ordering, or filters).

## Response 200:

  - `200` (unknown)
    A page of payment methods.

## Response 200 fields (application/json):

  - `object` (string, required)
    Enum: "list"

  - `has_more` (boolean, required)
    Whether more items exist beyond this page.

  - `next_cursor` (string | null, required)
    Opaque cursor for the next page; `null` on the last page.

  - `data` (array, required)

  - `data.id` (integer, required)

  - `data.object` (string, required)
    Enum: "payment_method"

  - `data.slug` (string, required)
    Method kind (e.g. `cash`, `card`, `cashless`).

  - `data.name` (string, required)

  - `data.default_account_id` (integer | null)
    Account the method settles to unless overridden in the payment.

  - `data.fee_rate` (number | null)
    Acquiring fee, percent.

  - `data.card_brands` (array)

  - `data.card_brands.id` (integer, required)

  - `data.card_brands.title` (string, required)

  - `data.installments` (array)
    Available installment counts; empty when installments are not supported.

## Response 200 headers (application/json):

  - `RateLimit-Remaining` (integer)
    Requests left in the most constrained policy window that applies to this request.

  - `RateLimit-Reset` (integer)
    On `429`, seconds until the most constrained policy frees up; it equals `Retry-After` there.
On a successful response it reports the **length** of that policy's window rather than the
time left in the current one, so treat it as the window size, not as a countdown — the
counter to pace against is `RateLimit-Remaining`.

  - `RateLimit-Policy` (string)
    Most constrained policy applied to the request, as `<limit>;w=<window in seconds>`.
    Example: 10;w=60

  - `X-Request-Id` (string)
    Request identifier for support and log correlation.

## Response 400:

  - `400` (unknown)
    Client error without a more specific registered code (`bad_request` — status default for
bare 400 and unknown 4xx), or protocol/syntax failure (`malformed_request` — broken JSON /
unparseable body only; must be thrown explicitly, never used as a synonym for every 400).
Semantic field validation is `422 validation_failed`, not 400.
