status
field to determine and display the final payment outcome to the consumer. - Additionally, webhooks are triggered to notify you of the payment result. This ensures you receive the outcome even if the consumer closes their browser or fails to return to your website.
SCAN_CODE
- You'll be notified of the payment outcome via Webhook.
- You can check the payment status at any time by making a GET /v1/payment-charges/{paymentChargeId}.
- Use the
Status
that you received to display the payment outcome to the consumer.
