general.postAuthorise

Creates a payment with a unique reference (pspReference) and attempts to obtain an authorisation hold. For cards, this amount can be captured or cancelled later. Non-card payment methods typically don't support this and will automatically capture as part of the authorisation.

This endpoint is part of our . If using a , use the endpoint under Checkout API instead.
general.postAuthorise3d

For an authenticated 3D Secure session, completes the payment authorisation. This endpoint must receive the md and paResponse parameters that you get from the card issuer after a shopper pays via 3D Secure.

This endpoint is part of our . If using a , use the endpoint under Checkout API instead.
modifications.postCancel

Cancels the authorisation hold on a payment, returning a unique reference for this request. You can cancel payments after authorisation only for payment methods that support distinct authorisations and captures.
For more information, refer to .

This endpoint is part of our . If using a , use the endpoint under Checkout API instead.
modifications.postCancelOrRefund
Cancels a payment if it has not been captured yet, or refunds it if it has already been captured. This is useful when it is not certain if the payment has been captured or not (for example, when using auto-capture).
Do not use this endpoint for payments that involve:
- .
- either at time of payment or capture for Adyen for Platforms.
Instead, check if the payment has been captured and make a corresponding or call.

modifications.postCapture

Captures the authorisation hold on a payment, returning a unique reference for this request. Usually the full authorisation amount is captured, however it's also possible to capture a smaller amount, which results in cancelling the remaining authorisation balance.
Payment methods that are captured automatically after authorisation don't need to be captured. However, submitting a capture request on these transactions will not result in double charges. If immediate or delayed auto-capture is enabled, calling the capture method is not neccessary.

This endpoint is part of our . If using a , use the endpoint on Checkout API instead.
modifications.postRefund

Refunds a payment that has previously been captured, returning a unique reference for this request. Refunding can be done on the full captured amount or a partial amount. Multiple (partial) refunds will be accepted as long as their sum doesn't exceed the captured amount. Payments which have been authorised, but not captured, cannot be refunded, use the /cancel method instead.
Some payment methods/gateways do not support partial/multiple refunds. A margin above the captured limit can be configured to cover shipping/handling costs.

modifications.postVoidPendingRefund

This endpoint allows you to cancel an unreferenced refund request before it has been completed.
In your call, you can refer to the original refund request either by using the tenderReference, or the pspReference. We recommend implementing based on the tenderReference, as this is generated for both offline and online transactions.
