# Axerve payments

Axerve payments are a type of payment source that lets you process payments through [Axerve gateways](https://docs.commercelayer.io/core-api-reference/axerve_gateways).

Axerve payments can be easily created (you just need to pass a valid `return_url`) and [associated with an order](https://app.gitbook.com/s/-Lk-ezuDClaMavTqnRi0/placing-orders/payments/axerve/adding-the-payment-source#2.-create-the-payment-source-and-associate-it-with-the-order). Once you have created a payment source for Axerve and you're going to process the payment, if you're not sure whether the order changed in the meanwhile or not you can [update the payment intent](https://app.gitbook.com/s/-Lk-ezuDClaMavTqnRi0/placing-orders/payments/axerve/updating-the-payment-intent) with the latest order amount by passing the `_update` trigger attribute.
