Default and supported languages

The Worldpay Payment service supports a number of languages. Payment Service Providers (PSPs) commonly support only a subset of the languages offered by the Worldpay Payment service. The default language for an Alternative Payment Method (APM) is one of the supported languages.

For information about the default and supported languages for individual payment methods, see Supported Alternative Payment Methods (APMs).

Direct model

In the direct model, the PSP pages are always displayed in the default language associated with the APM.

Redirect model
