02:00
and then you’re going to maybe look at the payment method type and so um this is by country and so you’re gonna grab you know uh singapore for uh sg for singapore um and we’ll have all the information specifically on that payment method and you can see the category is listed here and which is e-wallet if it’s card it will say card here and then e-wallet they have a lot of e-wallets uh and then there’s also uh bank redirect um you know bank transfer as you can see uh here on this page and so i’m just gonna go ahead and go to
