Setting the charge to expire

User-Presented Mode Payment (B scan C) charges that have not yet been authorized (status=pending) can be set to expire immediately. In effect, this cancels the charge.

curl https://api.omise.co/charges/$CHARGE_ID/expire \
  -X POST \
  -u $OMISE_SECRET_KEY:

Completing the charge

At this point, you have created a new charge with its status set to pending. Other possible values for charge status are successful, failed, and expired.

The following sections detail how to authorize a charge, receive its completion webhook event, and update its status.

sequenceDiagram participant customer participant merchant participant api.omise.co participant payment provider customer->>merchant: Present payment code for scanning merchant->>api.omise.co: Create charge using payment code api.omise.co-->>merchant: Return charge api.omise.co-xmerchant: Send "charge.create" webhook customer->>payment provider: Provide charge authorization payment provider-->>customer: Return payment result payment provider-->>api.omise.co: Return payment result api.omise.co-xmerchant: Send "charge.complete" webhook

Receiving the charge completion event

The best way to be notified about the completion of a charge is using webhook events.

Set up a location on the merchant server to receive webhook events, and add this location as a webhook endpoint on the dashboard.

Checking the charge status

After receiving this event, retrieve the charge using its id and confirm that its status matches the status of the charge contained in the event.

If the value of status is successful, you got paid.

If the value of status is failed, check the failure_code and failure_message in the charge object for an explanation.

Possible failure codes are as follows.

Failure Code Description
payment_expired Payment expired.
payment_rejected Payment rejected by issuer.
insufficient_fund Insufficient funds in the account or the payment method has reached its limit.
failed_processing General payment processing failure.

Voids and refunds

User-Presented Mode Payment (B scan C) charges can be voided until 16:15 UTC of the transaction date, and can be partially or fully refunded within 1 year of the transaction date.
