CardFlight API Introduction

The CardFlight Gateway API is designed to facilitate simple card present payment processing for you as a client, on behalf of your merchants.

Our RESTful API is centered around an asynchronous /transactions endpoint.

All endpoints described below are available at:
https://api.cardflight.com/

Onboarding A Merchant Account

A merchant account must be created on the CardFlight gateway to process credit transactions.

A VAR Sheet (tear sheet, parameter sheet) contains merchant account information, bank account information, processor information, etc. These details allow CardFlight to communicate with the merchant processor.

[1]While CardFlight supports all major Merchant Service Providers, the API currently supports First Data Omaha (merchant type: Restaurant).

Creating A Transaction

Once a merchant account is boarded on the CardFlight gateway, making a POST request to /transactions will create a new transaction.

The state parameter informs the gateway of the requested transaction type and the platform will proceed accordingly.

The amount parameter is how much money will be transacted.

The card parameter will provide the account information for a customer (cardholder) providing payment.

Transaction Type: SALE

A sale request will check the available funds of a Cardholder and if approved allocate the amount to the Merchant.

Transaction Type: AUTHORIZATION (Restaurant Only)

An authorization request will place a hold on the Cardholder’s available balance for the amount provided. A capture update must be performed to allocate the funds to the merchant.

Transaction Type: REFUND

A refund is a transfer of funds from a merchant to a Cardholder.

  • To create a refund make a POST request with the state PENDING_APPROVED, a negative amount, and an associated transaction.[1]

A PARTIAL REFUND transaction can be created for a negative amount less than the associated (original sale) transaction.

Multiple partial refund transactions may occur until the total amount of the original transaction has been refunded.

[1]Unattached refunds are not supported, all refunds require an associated transaction.

Fetching A Transaction

A transaction is sent to the CardFlight gateway in state PENDING_APPROVED (Sale, Refund) or PENDING_PRE_APPROVED (Authorization.)

The CardFlight gateway will update the state to PRE_APPROVED, APPROVED, or DECLINED if the request was a successful authorization, successful sale, or declined sale or authorization.

When creating a transaction, due to variation in the processing time, polling may be needed to see the state update made by the gateway.

Fetch the transaction to return the current state, transaction details, attached metadata, and more.

Updating A Transaction

CAPTURE

A capture updates an approved AUTHORIZATION (in state PRE_APPROVED) by scheduling settlement of the PENDING funds on a Cardholder’s account. A successful capture results in the Transaction state APPROVED.

  • To CAPTURE a Transaction in state PRE_APPROVED, make a PUT request updating the state parameter to PENDING_APPROVED.

VOID

A void removes the scheduled settlement of a Transaction with state APPROVED. (CAPTURE, SALE, REFUND)

A void on a Transaction with state PRE_APPROVED (AUTHORIZATION) removes the hold on Cardholder funds.

If a VOID is unsuccessful the Transaction will state will be set to its previous APPROVED or PRE_APPROVED state.

Transaction State Machine

The Transaction State Machine diagram exposes client requested states and states managed by the CardFlight Gateway.

State Name Description Valid Exit States
PENDING_PRE_APPROVED
(Client Request)		 AUTHORIZATION requested, awaiting result. PRE_APPROVED
DECLINED
PRE_APPROVED
(Gateway)		 AUTHORIZATION approved, cardholder statement shows funds as ‘PENDING’. PENDING_APPROVED
PENDING_VOID
PENDING_APPROVED
(Client Request)		 SALE, CAPTURE, or REFUND requested, awaiting result. APPROVED
DECLINED
APPROVED
(Gateway)		 SALE, CAPTURE, REFUND approved, funds to be moved between merchant and cardholder. PENDING_VOID
SETTLED
PENDING_VOID
(Client Request)		 VOID requested, awaiting result. VOIDED
PRE_APPROVED
APPROVED
VOIDED
(Gateway)		 Transaction voided, funds are released to cardholder and no money will move between cardholder and merchant. FINAL STATE
DECLINED
(Gateway)		 AUTHORIZATION, SALE, REFUND request declined. FINAL STATE
SETTLED
(Gateway)		 CAPTURE, SALE, REFUND settled.[1] FINAL STATE
UNKNOWN
(Gateway)		 An error has occurred, please contact CardFlight support. FINAL STATE

[1] The transfer of funds is managed by the Payment Processor. Once a transaction is ‘settled’ the CardFlight platform is no longer or in control of, or exposed to, the funding. A ‘settled’ transaction is complete and can not be voided.
