# New v3 API endpoint for getting card funding purpose

We have introduced a new Get card funding purpose (`GET /v3/funding-accounts/cards/funding-purposes`) endpoint. Get a list of card funding purpose values based on the vendor and card brand.

When you create a payment (`POST /v3/payments` or `POST /v3/payments/bulk`) with a `CARD_ACCOUNT` funding account type, BILL requires a vendor industry value for compliance. When BILL cannot identify the vendor industry, the `cardFundingPurpose` field must be set in your payment request.

Use this endpoint to get the list of card funding purpose values you can set. If you get an empty 200 response, BILL has information about the vendor industry and setting the `cardFundingPurpose` field is not required in your payment request.

See [GET /v3/funding-accounts/cards/funding-purposes](https://developer.bill.com/reference/listcardfundingpurposes) in the API reference for more information.
