Reversal
POST/direct/reversal
Reverse a previous authorisation
A reversal request reverses a previous deferred capture authorisation that has yet to be captured.
If the merchant has decided not to capture the payment the transaction must be reversed. When an authorisation is successful it may ring fence funds on the customer’s payment method. A reversal will release the funds back to the customer so they are able to reuse them.
If a merchant has captured an authorisation (either through deferred capture or auto capture) they are able to still perform a reversal on that authorisation if the reversal is within a certain period after the authorisation. If this is desired, please contact your integration manager to discuss this reversal after capture period. Outside of that period the merchant will have to perform a refund.
