Get Payment Status API
The API method Get Payment Status returns the payment status and the status and history of any modification initiated by you.
API Request Parameters
| Field | Mandatory | Description | Type | Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| transactionId | Yes | The Transaction ID received by calling the SmartPay API method Create Checkout. | GUID | 36 |
Request
Specify the transaction-ID in the URL.
Path:
GET {Base URL}/payment/status/aeaabe56-3c05-44fb-9f19-9f27074ef5a4
The request must have the following headers:
Content-Type: application/json
Accept-Language: en-US
Origin: { Origin }
API Response Parameter
Technical error codes or other details of why a request could not be completed, must not be disclosed to an end user directly, as this might increase the risk of fraudulent activity.
Especially when it comes to credit card fraud, fraudsters often target websites that give a different response to different types of declination (e.g. where one response is returned for the amount exceeding the available credit and another where a card is flagged as stolen).

reconciliationReferenceId:
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.

Response sample #3
The sample below shows a checkout with auto-capture, via 'Pre-payment' as a payment option, and so the "transactionReference" field is returned as part of the response. The "transactionReference" is the transaction identifier, that must be used by the end-customer, as a reference/usage (Verwendungszweck), while initiating their bank transfer.
