Status list

Payment statuses

Payment status defines the stage of transaction. The status can be transitional and final.

Payment Flow

Status code Final Description
created Invoice has been created; processing has not started. If Cublox does not return response 201 (Created) HTTP status code on your request, you should admit that the payment invoice creation was failed.
expired Invoice hit the lifetime limit without successful processing.
process_pending Process still being unknown and may not be known for an extended period.
processed ✔* Processed successfully. It isn't a final status since the payment can be refunded for different reasons.
process_failed Processing has failed, may be set when an error occurs and the corresponding payment request has failed. This status is considered final due to the maximum number of attempts has been reached (default—after 5 attempts).
refund_pending Refunding is still being unknown and may not be known for an extended period.
partially_refunded Successfully refunded amount is less than the invoice amount.
refunded Successfully refunded in full.
refund_failed Refunding has been failed or cannot be completed.
charged_back The payment transaction was claimed as a chargeback in full amount.
partially_charged_back The payment transaction was claimed as a chargeback but in amount less than the invoice amount.

* — The status is considered as final, but the payment can be rejected for additional reasons or recovered (in refund or chargeback cases).

Payment resolutions

A resolution is a transaction status clarification.

With transitional and successful final statuses, the related resolutions have an ok code. With failed final status, the resolutions get one of the following codes:

The detailed level of the transaction's failure reason depends on the information openness of payment service providers (PSP) and issuer banks (for card transactions).

Note

  • Cublox could expand the list of resolutions lately.
  • Receiving a resolution other than listed should not affect the transaction processing because this attribute only informs about possible errors.
  • The finality and success of the transaction processing are determined solely by the payment status (status).

Payment identifiers

At different stages of the payment received, the identifiers are processed with different names. Check the relations between them in the diagram below.

Note

Receiver Reference Number (RRN) and Acquirer Reference Number (ARN) are used only for card payments' identification.
