Successful Response

If the payment is found, the response includes full payment details such as status, amount, counterparties, and payment description.

  • For debit transactions, receiver (creditor) details are included.

  • For credit transactions, sender (debtor) details are included.

  • For virtual account (VIBAN) payments, if either the sender or receiver was a VIBAN, the field IsVirtualAccountPayment: true is returned and the related virtual account details are added to the response.

No Transaction Found

If the transaction cannot be found, a 404 response is returned.

This may happen if:

  • payment has not yet been processed (no reservation exists),

    • payment has been cancelled

  • the account servicer reference is invalid, or

  • the payment is older than the 14-day lookup window.

hashtag
Payment Status

Statuses in the response are simplified for clarity:

  • Pending – The payment is being processed but has not yet been booked on the account.

  • Booked – The payment has been fully processed and the account has been debited or credited.
