Update the status of a payment link Updates the status of a payment link. Use this endpoint to [force the expiry of a payment link](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/pay-by-link#update-payment-link-status).

Get an Apple Pay session You need to use this endpoint if you have an API-only integration with Apple Pay which uses Adyen's Apple Pay certificate. The endpoint returns the Apple Pay session data which you need to complete the [Apple Pay session validation](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods/apple-pay/api-only?tab=adyen-certificate-validation_1#complete-apple-pay-session-validation).

Cancel an authorised payment Cancels the authorisation on a payment that has not yet been [captured](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/captures), and returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in a [**TECHNICAL_CANCEL** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/cancel#cancellation-webhook). If you want to cancel a payment using the [`pspReference`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/Checkout/latest/post/payments#responses-200-pspReference), use the [`/payments/{paymentPspReference}/cancels`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/cancels) endpoint instead. If you want to cancel a payment but are not sure whether it has been captured, use the [`/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals) endpoint instead. For more information, refer to [Cancel](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/cancel).

Get the brands and other details of a card Use this endpoint to get information about the card or network token that enables you to decide on the routing of the transaction and the eligibility of the card for the type of transaction. If you include [your supported brands](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/cardDetails__reqParam_supportedBrands) in the request, the response also tells you if you support each [brand that was identified on the card](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/Checkout/latest/post/cardDetails#responses-200-brands). If you have an API-only integration and collect card data, use this endpoint to find out if the shopper's card is co-bad. For co-badged cards, you must let the shopper choose the brand to pay with if you support both brands. ## Server-side API libraries We provide open-source [server-side API libraries](https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/libraries/) in several languages: - PHP - Java - Node.js - .NET - Go - Python - Ruby - Apex (beta) See our [integration examples](https://github.com/adyen-examples#%EF%B8%8F-official-integration-examples) for example uses of the libraries. ## Developer resources BIN Lookup API is available through a Postman collection.

Create an order Creates an order to be used for partial payments. Make a POST `/orders` call before making a `/payments` call when processing payments with different payment methods.

Cancel an order Cancels an order. Cancellation of an order results in an automatic rollback of all payments made in the order, either by canceling or refunding the payment, depending on the type of payment method.

Create originKey values for domains This operation takes the origin domains and returns a JSON object containing the corresponding origin keys for the domains. > If you're still using origin key for your Web Drop-in or Components integration, we recommend [switching to client key](https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/client-side-authentication/migrate-from-origin-key-to-client-key). This allows you to use a single key for all origins, add or remove origins without generating a new key, and detect the card type from the number entered in your payment form.

Create a payment link Creates a payment link to a [Pay by Link](https://docs.adyen.com/unified-commerce/pay-by-link/) page where the shopper can pay. The list of payment methods presented to the shopper depends on the `currency` and `country` parameters sent in the request. For more information, refer to [Pay by Link documentation](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/pay-by-link#create-payment-links-through-api).

Get a list of available payment methods Retrieves the list of available payment methods for the transaction, based on the transaction information like amount, country, and currency.

Get the balance of a gift card Retrieves the balance remaining on a shopper's gift card. To check a gift card's balance, make a POST `/paymentMethods/balance` call and include the gift card's details inside a `paymentMethod` object.

Start a transaction Sends payment parameters (like amount, country, and currency) together with other required input details collected from the shopper. To know more about required parameters for specific payment methods, refer to our [payment method guides](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods). The response depends on the [payment flow](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods#payment-flow): * For a direct flow, the response includes a `pspReference` and a `resultCode` with the payment result, for example **Authorised** or **Refused**. * For a redirect or additional action, the response contains an `action` object.

Submit details for a payment Submits details for a payment created using `/payments`. This step is only needed when no final state has been reached on the `/payments` request, for example when the shopper was redirected to another page to complete the payment.

Update an authorised amount Increases or decreases the authorised payment amount and returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in an [**AUTHORISATION_ADJUSTMENT** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/development-resources/webhooks/webhook-types/#event-codes). You can only update authorised amounts that have not yet been [captured](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/captures). The amount you specify in the request is the updated amount, which is larger or smaller than the initial authorised amount. For more information, refer to [Authorisation adjustment](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/adjust-authorisation#use-cases).

Cancel an authorised payment Cancels the authorisation on a payment that has not yet been [captured](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/captures), and returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in a [**CANCELLATION** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/cancel#cancellation-webhook). If you want to cancel a payment but don't have the [`pspReference`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/Checkout/latest/post/payments#responses-200-pspReference), use the [`/cancels`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/cancels) endpoint instead. If you want to cancel a payment but are not sure whether it has been captured, use the [`/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals) endpoint instead. For more information, refer to [Cancel](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/cancel).

Capture an authorised payment Captures an authorised payment and returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in a [**CAPTURE** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/capture#capture-notification). You can capture either the full authorised amount or a part of the authorised amount. By default, any unclaimed amount after a partial capture gets cancelled. This does not apply if you enabled multiple partial captures on your account and the payment method supports multiple partial captures. [Automatic capture](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/capture#automatic-capture) is the default setting for most payment methods. In these cases, you don't need to make capture requests. However, making capture requests for payments that are captured automatically does not result in double charges. For more information, refer to [Capture](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/capture).

Refund a captured payment Refunds a payment that has been [captured](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/captures), and returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in a [**REFUND** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/refund#refund-webhook). You can refund either the full captured amount or a part of the captured amount. You can also perform multiple partial refunds, as long as their sum doesn't exceed the captured amount. > Some payment methods do not support partial refunds. To learn if a payment method supports partial refunds, refer to the payment method page such as [cards](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods/cards#supported-cards), [iDEAL](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods/ideal), or [Klarna](https://docs.adyen.com/payment-methods/klarna). If you want to refund a payment but are not sure whether it has been captured, use the [`/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals`](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/reversals) endpoint instead. For more information, refer to [Refund](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/refund).

Refund or cancel a payment [Refunds](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/refunds) a payment if it has already been captured, and [cancels](https://docs.adyen.com/api-explorer/#/CheckoutService/latest/post/payments/{paymentPspReference}/cancels) a payment if it has not yet been captured. Returns a unique reference for this request. You get the outcome of the request asynchronously, in a [**CANCEL_OR_REFUND** webhook](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/reversal/#cancel-or-refund-webhook). The reversed amount is always the full payment amount. > Do not use this request for payments that involve multiple partial captures. For more information, refer to [Reversal](https://docs.adyen.com/online-payments/reversal).
