Capture Payment

This endpoint captures a full or partial payment. Any amounts successfully captured will be settled from Clearpay to the merchant's nominated bank account on the following day. Records of all payments captured against an order are returned in the events list as events of type, "CAPTURED".

<Note title="Note">

This operation is idempotent based on the requestId (if provided), which allows for the safe retry of requests, guaranteeing the payment operation is only performed once. </Note>

<Warning title="Beware">

Authorisation expires after 13 days and then the transaction is automatically voided. Voided transactions are frozen and cannot be reopened or changed in any way. In this case your only option is to use the v2/checkouts endpoint to create a new order. </Warning>

Successful Response (201)

If successful, returns an updated copy of the Payment object, with the newly captured payment appended to the events array as a Payment Event object with a type of "CAPTURED".
