Transaction status lifecycle

  • pending: The customer opened the checkout screen but has not completed payment
  • completed: The payment was successfully processed, and the funds have been registered
  • failed: The payment processor rejected the transaction
  • refunded: The funds were returned to the customer
  • cancelled: The checkout expired or was explicitly cancelled by the customer

Best practices

  • Verify the Gateway TRX ID against your physical bank/wallet statements before delivering high-value goods
  • Monitor Failed transactions to determine if customers are facing issues with specific payment gateways
  • Do not manually verify or force-complete a transaction unless you have absolute proof of receipt
Before refunding a transaction, verify that the reversing debit ledger entry will not push your merchant account balance below zero.

Common mistakes and troubleshooting

  • Dashboard - Real-time overview of transaction volumes
  • Ledger - Financial movements audit trails
