Capture

warning

Two-phase payments: When dealing in physical goods using two-phase payment methods, all goods must be shipped before you capture the authorized amount. This is regulated in part by the Swedish Distance and Doorstep Sales Act, required in our terms and (for card payments) required by Visa and Mastercard.

Capture

Captures are only possible when a payment has a successful Authorization transaction, naturally excluding one-phase payment methods like Swish and Trustly. They will be marked as a Sale transaction. Two-phase payment methods like Card and Vipps however, require a Capture to be completed.

Please note that you have a maximum of 5 consecutive failed attempts at a capture. The payment will be locked after the fifth, and you need to contact us for further attempts.

In addition to full captures, it is possible to do partial captures of the authorized amount. You can do more captures on the same payment later, up to the total authorized amount. A useful tool for when you have to split orders into several shipments.

First off, you must request the order information from the server to get the request link. With this, you can request the capture with the amount to capture, and get the status back.

To capture the authorized payment, we need to perform capture against the accompanying href returned in the operations list. See the abbreviated request and response below:

Et voilà! The payment should now be complete and everyone should be happy. But, sometimes you also need to implement the cancellation and reversal operations described in After Payment.

Authorizations are kept valid in our systems for 180 days, and we accept captures within this timeframe. Please be aware that acquirers might have a shorter time limit before authorized amounts are released in their systems. We advise you to check with your acquirer if you have concerns about these limits.
