};

AuthorizeRequest

Request payload for a two-step authorization (hold funds without capture). Identical shape to ChargeRequest; the client calls authorize instead of charge.

type AuthorizeRequest = ChargeRequest;

Example

const request: AuthorizeRequest = {
  amount: 10000,
  currency: 'USD',
  paymentMethod: { 
    type: 'card',
    number: '4242424242424242',
    expMonth: 12,
    expYear: 2025,
    cvc: '123'
  },
  customer: {
    email: 'customer@example.com',
    name: 'John Doe'
  },
  idempotencyKey: 'auth-456',
};

CaptureRequest

Request payload to capture a previously authorized transaction.

transactionId

string

required

The transaction ID returned from a prior authorize call.

amount

number

Partial capture amount. Omit to capture the full authorized amount.

idempotencyKey

string

Prevents duplicate captures when retrying the same request.

Example

const request: CaptureRequest = {
  transactionId: 'txn_abc123',
  amount: 5000, // Partial capture
  idempotencyKey: 'capture-789',
};

RefundRequest

Request payload to refund a completed transaction (full or partial).

transactionId

amount

Prevents duplicate refunds when retrying the same request.

Example

const request: RefundRequest = {
  transactionId: 'txn_abc123',
  amount: 2500, // Partial refund
  reason: 'Customer requested partial refund',
  idempotencyKey: 'refund-101',
};

VoidRequest

Request payload to void (cancel) an authorized transaction before capture.

transactionId

string

required

The transaction ID of the authorization to void.

idempotencyKey

string

Prevents duplicate void operations when retrying the same request.
