# Payment
Sales channels require elevated permissions to interact with the Payment resource. For more information, see the Request Payment Processing section on the Start building a sales channel app page.
The Payment resource allows sales channels to build a fully native checkout experience by submitting a customer's payment details directly to Shopify.
To complete a payment using the Payment resource, first create a payment session by submitting the card details to Shopify's card vault in exchange for a session ID. The session ID can then be used to create a payment for an existing Checkout.
The Payment resource is compatible only with direct payment gateways. For a list of all supported payment gateways, see Direct and external credit card payment providers.
