Card types

A CB acceptance contract allows you to accept the following cards by default:
  • CB
  • e-Carte Bleue
  • Maestro
  • Mastercard
  • Visa
  • Visa Electron
  • VPAY

For “restaurant owner” merchants who have declared their CB contract with the issuers of electronic Meal Vouchers, the CB contract allows them to accept:
  • 1st generation Meal Voucher cards: even if they have the logo of the Meal Voucher issuer, they have the distinction of being payment cards issued within the VISA or MASTERCARD networks. When it comes to authorization, they are processed similarly to Visa or Mastercard cards with a statutory daily limit.
  • Meal vouchers outside the Conecs network: if you are affiliated with a Meal Voucher issuer other than Natixis Intertitres, Sodexo or Groupe Up, you can accept payments with these cards through your CB acceptance MID.

See the Electronic Meal Vouchers technical documentation available on our website.

Card categories

There are 4 categories of CB cards:
  • Credit card: card whose amounts are debited on a deferred basis from the holder’s account, with or without interest.
  • Debit card: payment card whose amounts are debited from the cardholder’s account less than 48 hours after the transactions were made. These are, for example, “immediate debit cards” or “cards with unconditional authorization”.
  • Commercial card: used for business expenses and where the amounts are debited from the company account.
  • Prepaid card: allows to have a limited amount of money. This card is exclusively reserved for private persons.
