Using preselected payment method

You can customize the selecting payment method page on Payment Page.

By default, banks that support Banks of Vietnam payment method are grouped in one button on Payment Page, so the selection of a bank is carried out in two steps. First, the Banks of Vietnam method is chosen among others, and then a particular bank is selected on the next page with the list of the group banks. There are several options for displaying the page with the selecting of payment method on Payment Page:

To display each bank of the Banks of Vietnam group with a separate buttons, pass split_banks=true in the request for opening in the payment_methods_options string.
```
payment_methods_options: {"vnd_asian_banks": {"split_banks": true}}
```
To display a button of a specific bank (one or several) from Banks of Vietnam group on Payment Page in the list of payment methods, pass the bank identifier in the banks_id parameter. If it is necessary to display several banks from a group, pass the identifiers of these banks separated by a comma with a space.
```
payment_methods_options: {"vnd_asian_banks": {"split_banks": true, "banks_id": [135, 136]}}
```
To preselect Banks of Vietnam as the payment method on Payment Page for customers, pass the code vnd_asian_banks in the force_payment_method parameter in the request for opening. The list of the banks from Banks of Vietnam group is displayed to a customer on Payment Page bypassing the page with the payment method selection.
To immediately redirect a customer to the website of the specific bank from the Banks of Vietnam group, pass the code vnd_asian_banks in the force_payment_method parameter and the bank identifier banks_id in the payment_methods_options string. The customer is redirected to the bank website without confirming willingness to pay, bypassing the pages with the payment method selection and the choice of banks on Payment Page.
