Some anti-fraud services may hold a transaction in review. If your chosen anti-fraud service supports this feature then you can enable manual reviews as part of the payment flow. This will pause a transaction and wait for the result of the review before proceeding.
A transaction in review

A transaction in review

When a transaction is marked for review the following steps will be performed.
  • We accept the transaction request
  • We call out to the anti-fraud service to fetch a decision
  • When the service requires a manual review we will mark the transaction as pending review
  • We proceed to authorize the transaction but do not continue to capture
  • When a support agent reviews the transaction we receive a webhook
  • We remove the pending review status from the transaction
  • We either proceed to capture if that was the original intent, or we will void the transaction if it was rejected

Set up webhooks

To enable manual review you will need to set up webhooks from your anti-fraud service to our system. This webhook is used to notify us when a review has had a decision. To get the webhook URL, head over to your connection by going to Connections -> [Anti-Fraud connection] -> Synchronization and copying the webhook URL. Then follow the guide for your chosen anti-fraud service to set up the webhook in their dashboard.
