State Diagram for the Merchant Presented Flow


Refund a Alipay/Wechat Payment

When a customer returns some of his purchased items or goods in the store and has paid for it successfully with Alipay/Wechat payment method before, the merchant can initiate the regarding refund with Alipay/Wechat as well.

To initiate a refund for a Alipay/Wechat payment, an initiatePaymentFromReference request using paymentMethodID = 457 ("Alipay Refund") or paymentMethodID = 458 ("WechatPay Refund") has to be sent with the PaymentID of the original related Alipay/Wechat payment (which must have been successfully completed DepositedByProvider).

PaymentMethodIDPayment MethodSuccessful State
457Alipay RefundRefunded (125)
458WechatPay RefundRefunded (125)

The paymentID of the original Alipay/Wechat payment must be used as originalPaymentID in the initiatePaymentFromReferenceRequest for creating the refund.

The merchant can decide to refund the full or a partial amount - but it must sum up to a maximum of the total captured amount of the Alipay/Wechat payment.

Example initiatePaymentFromReferenceRequest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<initiatePaymentFromReferenceRequest xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://www.cqrpayments.com/PaymentProcessing">

    <originalPaymentID>b9ea0c85-5896-4cf2-a4d7-e8b1b8d9b945</originalPaymentID>
    <paymentMethodID>457</paymentMethodID>
    <amount currencyCode="EUR">1</amount>
</initiatePaymentFromReferenceRequest>

The Alipay/Wechat payment for which the initiatePaymentFromReference request was sent will remain in state DepositedByProvider (29). A new payment which is linked to the original Alipay/Wechat payment will be created.
