Capture Transaction

Sandbox Only

This endpoint is available in the Sandbox environment only. Transaction capture is not supported in production at this time.

Use this route to capture a transaction previously authorized with the POST v3/transactions/authorize endpoint. Capturing finalizes the charge on the customer's card, moving the transaction status from authorized to paid.

Attention

Only transactions with authorized status can be captured. Attempting to capture a transaction with any other status will return a 403 error.

POSTv3/transactions/:transaction_id/capture

Accounts with Cross Border

This route is not available for accounts with Cross Border enabled and returns 403 with the forbidden error. These accounts transact through the Cross Border routes.
