Switch Gateway

Override the payment gateway on a per-session basis for A/B testing or routing.

The gateway_id must reference an active PaymentGateway within your tenant. In direct mode (no campaign_id), gateway_id is required. You can combine gateway_id with pricing overrides in the same request. See How to Switch Gateways for the full guide.
