Payment statuses

Payments can have one of the following statuses:

  • Pending billing (pending_billing — in the API methods) — the initial status of a new payment when external management of invoices for the Postpay model is used (see Managing invoices for the Postpay model by a third-party ERP system). A payment is created but not ready to be paid since a third-party ERP system has not yet approved the linked invoice.
  • Waiting for payment (waiting_for_payment) — the initial status of the rest of new payments. If external management of invoices for the Postpay model is used — the payment is ready for paying since a third-party ERP system has approved the linked invoice.
  • Expired — a payment is not completed before the due date.
  • Cancelled — a payment is cancelled.
  • Receipt creating (receipt_creating) — a manager manually prepares a receipt (see Processing a payment that requires manual receipt creation).
  • Receipt sent (receipt_sent) — a manager sent a manually prepared receipt to a customer.

  • Processing — a temporary status while a payment on the payment gateway side is processed. In the Processing status, all operations for a payment are not available.
  • Completed — a payment is processed (a customer paid for a payment).
  • Paid from balance (paid_from_balance) — a customer paid for a payment using the account balance.
