Pay an order from the customer's credit

POST/v2/api/store/{team_slug}/v2/sales_order/{hash_id}/credit/pay_with_customer_credit

v2Operation ID v2_public_sales_order_credit_pay_with_customer_credit

Uses the customer's credit balance to pay part of the order. Send a whole number of thousandths: 12500 is 12.50. See Money and quantities. The answer is the order's new credit entry: subtype TRANSFER, action ORDER_CREDIT_DEPOSIT, direction INCREASE, a positive amount and no payment method. It can't be edited, deleted or refunded (refundable_amount 0). When the credit came from a Customer Portal payment, the entry also names that payment (customer_payment_funding_id, customer_payment_sources). {hash_id} is the order's id (for example V4keXwwxMQyXw7); the ord_ unique key is not accepted here.

Permission

Needs permission to see this order's finances and to change it: the team owner; or a role with view_order_finance (View Sales Order Pricing) and view_all_order (or view_self_order, for orders the user created or is assigned to), and update_all_order (or update_self_order, for orders the user created or is assigned to). Otherwise 403 with a short body, {"message": "No permission to change this order payment."}. The order must be published.

Business rules

  • The amount can't be 0 ("Amount To refund cannot be Zero") or more than the customer's available credit ("Amount To refund is greater than the order payment total"): the messages reuse refund wording. Its sign is ignored.
  • Available credit leaves out credit held by a frozen payment (an open dispute or review). When only that held credit would cover the amount, the refusal is the freeze 422 (customer_payment_disputed_funds_unavailable or invoice_payment_funding_withheld, with error.reason, error.provider and error.provider_label).
  • Only published orders: otherwise 422 "Action Not Allow".

Side effects

  • Lowers the customer's credit and records the credit entry on the order.
  • Sends the payment_received.any_amount webhook; also payment_received.deposit_amount when the order's paid total now exactly equals its deposit amount, and payment_received.full_amount when the balance due (invoiced total minus paid) is now exactly 0. A payment that goes past the deposit, or overpays, sends neither of those two.

Errors

  • 401The API key is missing or wrong (unauthenticated).

  • 403You are not allowed to do this. api_access_not_in_plan: your team's plan doesn't include API access (Pro and above, with an active subscription or trial), so every request answers this until the team upgrades. When your role lacks the permission the operation needs, the body is only {"message": "Insufficient Permission"}. Other refusals use the error envelope, with unauthorized or user_is_not_authorized.

    When
    Your role can't see this order's finances or change it. This 403 has a short body, {"message": "No permission to change this order payment."}, with no success or error.
    Fix
    Ask the team owner for View Sales Order Pricing and permission to edit this order, or to be assigned to it.
  • 404Not found. page_not_found: the team slug is unknown, you are not a member of the team, or an id in the path is not one of this team's. code: null, with a message that starts "No query results for": there is no record with that id.

  • 422Validation failed or the payment mutation was rejected by business rules.

    When
    Zero, more than the available credit, an amount with decimals (validation_failed), or a draft order.
    Fix
    Check the customer's credit first.
    When
    A payment is frozen by an open dispute or review (customer_payment_disputed_funds_unavailable or invoice_payment_funding_withheld, with error.reason).
    Fix
    Wait for the provider's decision, then try again.
