This endpoint is inactive and is no longer supported for new integrations.
- If you are building a new integration, build an online payments integration with Checkout API instead.

The Checkout API enables your online payments integration to accept all supported payment methods, use latest features, and access more benefits.
Capture, cancel, and refund actions are called modifications, since they modify the state of a payment. The possible payment modifications are:
- Capture – Capture approved authorisation when it is necessary to complete the payment.
- Cancel – Cancel authorisation when the payment has not yet been captured.
- Refund – Return the funds to the shopper when the payment has already been captured.
- Cancel or refund – Return the funds to the shopper when you are not sure whether the payment has been captured.
- Adjust authorisation – Adjust the authorised amount after the initial authorisation.
For information on how to cancel and refund in-person payments, refer to Cancel a payment and Refund a payment.
