What is a transaction?

Each payment has one or more associated transactions. A payment on Yuno can go through multiple processors via fallbacks, retries, or split routing. Each of these paths can add multiple transactions to the payment. You can check all transactions related to a payment in the payment timeline on your Yuno dashboard. On Yuno, transactions are divided into primary and secondary transactions. In addition, each transaction can have a different status depending on its processing stage.

​
Transaction types and statuses

​
Primary transactions

Primary transactions initiate a payment and can be one of three types:
  • Purchase: A standard sale transaction.
  • Authorize: A transaction used to authorize a payment amount to be captured at a later time.
  • Verify: A transaction to verify if the customer is using a valid payment method.

​
Secondary transactions

Secondary transactions refer to additional transactions that affect the final outcome of the payment and primary transaction. The secondary transactions can be:
  • Refund: A refund made to the initial transaction, which can be full or partial.
  • Cancel: A cancellation of an initial authorization.
  • Capture: A capture of funds from an initial authorization transaction, which can be full or partial.
  • Chargeback: A dispute initiated by the customer regarding the initial transaction.
  • 3DS: A 3D Secure (3DS) verification of an initial transaction.
  • Fraud screening: A fraud screening verification of an initial transaction. These are represented as FRAUD_SCREENING in your payments response.
  • Marketplace transfers: Standalone transfers within a Marketplace, represented as SPLIT_TRANSFER for forward transfers and SPLIT_TRANSFER_REVERSE for standalone reversals. Transfers linked to a payment transaction can also be reversed and are represented as SPLIT_TRANSFER_REVERSAL.
All possible statuses for each transaction type are presented below.
