Response

OK - Success

paymentstring required

A unique reference hash for the Forage OrderPayment to be refunded, returned when the OrderPayment was created.

amountnumber required

The amount to be refunded in USD. Does not need to equal the amount field of the OrderPayment, if a partial refund. Precision is supported to the penny.

The minimum amount that can be refunded is 0.01.

reasonstring required

A string that describes why the refund is happening.

metadataMetadataObject required

A required object containing merchant-defined key-value pairs to provide additional context for the payment.

Merchants should use this field to store reference information relevant to the transaction (for example, order details, system identifiers, or tracking data). This helps link the payment to records within their system.

Pass an empty object ({}) if no additional information is available.

⚠️ Personally Identifiable Information

Do not include personally identifiable information (PII) such as names, emails, or payment details.

merchant_fixed_settlementnumber

The fixed amount in USD that should be restored to the merchant from EBT Cash payments prior to splitting by the platform_fee. Precision is supported to the penny.

platform_fixed_settlementnumber

The fixed amount in USD that should be restored to the platform from EBT Cash payments prior to splitting by the platform_fee. Precision is supported to the penny.

external_order_idstring

A unique identifier for the order as created by the merchant or platform (not Forage).

When a merchant or platform passes this order ID to Forage, it persists in each Forage transaction related to the Order. This field enables merchants to map order IDs in their system to corresponding Forage Order IDs.

You must build with Forage Version 2023-05-15 or later to use external_order_id. Either pass 2023-05-15 as the API-Version header on a per request basis, or set the version for all requests in the Forage dashboard.
