Accessing the payments view

Merchants have the ability to address payment exceptions directly from the payments view in the merchant dashboard.  The payments view can be accessed by logging in to your merchant account and then selecting the payments link on the menu bar.

In the payments view, you can review all of the payments your Commerce account has received. All payments will including the following details:

  • Order creation date & time

  • Product

  • Status 

  • Customer details (If required by the merchant)

  • Order amount & currency

  • Actions (resolve, refund)

Additionally, you can search for a payment using the search icons or the date range filter. You can search payments using:

  • The 8-digit Commerce order code

  • The transactions receiving address

  • The cryptocurrency transaction hash that corresponds to the customer's transaction, which is recorded in their cryptocurrency wallet.

Payments can have one of the following statuses:

  • New - The payment has been created

  • Pending - The transaction has been detected

  • Completed - The transaction has been confirmed by the blockchain network

  • Expired - The payment request has expired (requests expire after 60 minutes if no payment has been detected)

  • Unresolved - The transaction has been confirmed but the payment diverged from what was expected

    • Underpaid - The amount received was less than the amount requested

    • Overpaid - The amount received was more than the amount requested

    • Delayed - The amount received arrived after the payment request expired

    • Multiple - Multiple payments were made to the same address

    • Other - The transaction is of an unknown type

  • Resolved - The merchant has marked the payment as resolved

  • Canceled - The request has been canceled. Only new charges can be canceled. Once a payment has been detected a charge cannot be canceled.

  • Pending refund - A refund has been initiated for this charge. Once a payment has been refunded it cannot be undone.

  • Refunded - A refund has been broadcast and confirmed by the blockchain network
