Transactions

Transactions record account fund movements and Card payment activity. Common records include:

  • Primary Account Top-ups;
  • Fund transfers between a Primary Account and Sub Accounts;
  • Budget allocation and Budget release;
  • Card Authorization;
  • Card Clearing;
  • Refunds or reversals.

A Card transaction usually goes through Authorization and Clearing. An approved Authorization means that the payment request has been approved; it does not mean that final Clearing has been completed. While a transaction is processing, the amount may temporarily occupy the Card or Budget limit.

The same transaction must not be counted twice during the Authorization and Clearing stages.
