POST/v1/charges/{charge}/capture

Capture a charge

Captures an existing charge that was created with capture disabled. Supply charge and optionally provide a partial capture amount and related transfer or receipt details. Do not use this operation for a PaymentIntent-initiated charge; capture the PaymentIntent instead.

  • RetriesRetries up to 2×, 500ms backoff, 30s timeout.
  • IdempotentThe SDK sends Idempotency-Key, so a retried request is only applied once.
