Cancel a charge

Once the Charge has been Authorised, if for some reason the goods cannot be provided to the customer, the charge will need to be cancelled.

Useful notes

  • A cancellation will free up any amount remaining in authorised status.
  • It is possible to cancel payments that have been partially captured. In this case only the authorised amount will be cancelled.
  • Captured amounts can only be refunded, not cancelled.
