Refund

POST 
/payment/refund

Enables you to perform a partial or full refund of a captured/settled transaction.

info

Each message sent via API is a request and should include a unique modificationId as request identifier for the purpose of detecting duplicate requests. If you need to retry a request due to a timeout or other exception, send the exact same message using the same modificationId to ensure the message is not processed multiple times.
In retry situations, please make sure to always use the same modificationId as provided in the initial request. SmartPay uses the modificationId to recognize retries and will always provide you this the same result as in the initial request posted with the same modificationId.

Schema

    reconciliationReferenceId stringrequired

    External payment provider unique transaction identifier.
    Within SmartPay, each order on your side is represented by one checkout transactionID. You may use this transactionID to perform the initial checkout, retrieve an overall status or for later modifications, like manual capture or refunds.
    On the payment side, this may lead to multiple financial transactions, e.g., one payment transaction about the captured amount (which will be settled to your account), and later a refund transaction (which will be debited from your account / deducted from your payout).
    The reconciliationReferenceId has been introduced to allow you to keep track of those financial transactions, as it represents the financial transactionID, as you would see it in the payment provider's merchant portal (e.g., our Merchant Panel) or settlement files.
