Transaction

Transactions are created for every order that results in an exchange of money.

There are five types of transactions:

  • Authorization: represents an amount reserved against the cardholder's funding source. Money does not change hands until an authorization is captured.
  • Sale: an authorization and capture performed together in a single step.
  • Capture: transfer of the money that was reserved during the authorization stage
  • Void: cancellation of a pending authorization or capture.
  • Refund: a partial or full return of captured funds to the cardholder. A refund can only happen after a capture is processed.
