# Adding a wire transfer payment source

## Problem

You have a pending order with a selected payment method that is associated with a manual payment gateway. You want to give your customer the possibility to pay with a wire transfer.

## Solution

To add a wire transfer payment source to an order, you have to create a wire transfer payment source object and associate it with the order, as described in the Checkout guide.

{% content-ref url="/pages/-LyDmmoN5VobgFXhhLIh" %}
[Adding a payment source](/how-tos/placing-orders/checkout/adding-a-payment-source.md)
{% endcontent-ref %}

### Example

#### 1. Get the payment source type

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Request" %}
The following request retrieves the attributes of the payment method associated with the order identified by the "yPMWYhmzON" ID:

```javascript
curl -g -X GET \
  'http://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/orders/yPMWYhmzON?include=payment_method' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer your-access-token' \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.api+json'
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Response" %}
On success, the API responds with a `200 OK` status code, returning the requested order object and the associated payment method:

```javascript
  "data": {
    "id": "yPMWYhmzON",
    "type": "orders",

{% endtabs %}

#### 2. Create the payment source and associate it with the order

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Request" %}
The following request creates a wire transfer object and associates it with the order identified by the "yPMWYhmzON" ID:

```javascript
curl -g -X POST \
  'http://yourdomain.commercelayer.io/api/wire_transfers' \
  -H 'Accept: application/vnd.api+json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer your-access-token' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json' \
  -d '{
  "data": {
    "type": "wire_transfers",
    "attributes": {},
    "relationships": {
      "order": {
        "data": {
          "type": "orders",
          "id": "yPMWYhmzON"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Response" %}
On success, the API responds with a `201 Created` status code, returning the created wire transfer object:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.commercelayer.io/how-tos/placing-orders/payments/manual-payments/adding-a-wire-transfer-payment-source.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
