Result objectanchor

Read more about result objects.

Successful resultanchor

If the result is successful, the transaction will have either a settling status, authorized status, or (if the options-submit_for_settlement option was used) a submitted for settlement status.

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> true

transaction = result.transaction
transaction.status
#=> "authorized"

Additionally, you may inspect the result to determine if the transaction was created using a specific payment method type (e.g. PayPal account or a credit card), using the provided format.

  1. Ruby
transaction = result.transaction
transaction.payment_instrument_type == PaymentInstrumentType::PayPalAccount
#=> false
transaction.payment_instrument_type == PaymentInstrumentType::CreditCard
#=> true

Unsuccessful resultanchor

Success will return false if:

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> false

result.errors

Validation errorsanchor

If any parameters are invalid, then the success call will return false and the result object will contain one or more validation errors indicating which parameters were invalid.

When receiving a validation error, a Transaction object will not be present on the Result object.

Processor declinedanchor

If the processor declines the transaction during the authorization, the processor response will be available on the transaction object.

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> false
result.transaction.status
#=> "processor_declined"

result.transaction.processor_response_type
#=> "soft_declined"
result.transaction.processor_response_code
#=> "2001"
result.transaction.processor_response_text
#=> "Insufficient Funds"

As a supplement to the standardized processor response codes, we will return bank-specific Additional Processor Responses on the transaction object. The standardized code is what you should use when handling the result object, but the Additional Processor Response might provide further context.

  1. Ruby
result.transaction.additional_processor_response
# e.g. "05 : NOT AUTHORISED"

Processor settlement declinedanchor

If the processor declines the transaction at the settlement stage, the processor response will be available on the transaction object.

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> false
result.transaction.status
#=> "settlement_declined"
result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_code
#=> "4001"
result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_text
#=> "Settlement Declined"

Gateway rejectionanchor

If the transaction is rejected by the gateway based on your account settings, you can check for the transaction status and gateway rejection reason.

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> false
result.transaction.status
#=> "gateway_rejected"
result.transaction.gateway_rejection_reason
#=> e.g. "cvv"

Risk dataanchor

We return the risk data on credit card verifications and on transactions with all compatible payment methods. The data includes the fraud service provider, the risk identifier, the device data captured flag, and the risk decision, which can provide further context on how a verification or transaction was scored by our Premium Fraud Management Tools. For users of Fraud Protection, the data will include the decision reasons. For users of Fraud Protection Advanced, the data will also include the risk score.

note

For users of our Java and .NET SDKs, you will need to upgrade to versions .NET 5.4.0 and Java 3.7.0 or later to see the decision reasons and risk score in the risk data.

  1. Ruby
result.transaction.risk_data.id
#=> "1SG23YHM4BT5"
result.transaction.risk_data.decision
#=> "Decline"
result.transaction.risk_data.device_data_captured
#=> true
result.transaction.risk_data.fraud_service_provider
#=> "Kount"
result.transaction.risk_data.decision_reasons
#=> ["reason1", "reason2"]
result.transaction.risk_data.risk_score
#=> 42

The possible values of the risk decision are:

  • "Not Evaluated"
  • "Approve"
  • "Review"
  • "Decline"

Params retrievalanchor

See our documentation on result objects.

Examplesanchor

Currenciesanchor

Each merchant account can only process transactions for a single currency. Setting which merchant account to use will also determine which currency the transaction is processed with.

  1. Ruby
result.transaction.currency_iso_code
#=> "USD"

Settlement statusanchor

Check the result for success, and if it has failed, then first check for validation errors. If there are no validation errors, inspect the processor_settlement_response_code on the transaction, which will indicate if the processor declined the request.

  1. Ruby
if result.success?
  # transaction successfully submitted for settlement
elsif result.errors.any?
  puts result.errors.inspect
else
  puts result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_code
  puts result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_text
end

Processor settlement declinedanchor

If the settlement request is declined by the processor, the processor response will be available on the transaction object.

  1. Ruby
result.success?
#=> false
result.transaction.status
#=> "settlement_declined"
result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_code
#=> "4001"
result.transaction.processor_settlement_response_text
#=> "Settlement Declined"

Voiding settlementanchor

If you submit a transaction for settlement and then decide you actually don't want to settle it, you can void it before it's settled. After it's settled, you'll need to refund it instead.

To check if the transaction has been settled, find the transaction and check the status.

  1. Ruby
transaction = gateway.transaction.find("the_transaction_id")
    if transaction.status == "submitted_for_settlement"
      # can void
    elsif transaction.status == "settled"
      # will have to refund it
    else
      # this example only expected one of the two above statuses
    end

Authorization adjustmentsanchor

The authorized amount of a transaction can be adjusted by using the adjust authorization endpoint. This will cause an authorization adjustment to be performed.

When submitting a transaction for settlement, if you specify a settlement amount that is different than the authorized amount, an authorization adjustment may be performed automatically.

For each adjustment performed, an authorization adjustment object will be associated with the original transaction. These adjustment objects will include the following details:

Adjustment Detail Description
amount

The difference between the authorized amount and the amount submitted for settlement. Negative values indicate the authorized amount was adjusted down.

successA boolean value indicating if the adjustment was successful.

	puts event.amount
	puts event.status
	puts event.timestamp
	puts event.transaction_source
	puts event.user

end

Network response codesanchor

In addition to the processor response code and text, some transaction and verification objects also include a network response code and text.

These network response values are the raw responses that may be returned by the card network, and when present they can provide additional detail about why a request was approved or declined. However, this information is supplemental to the processor response code; you should consider the processor response code to be the source of truth.
