Reconciliation Overview

We recognize that keeping your system and your bank account in sync with all of your payment activity is of the utmost importance. As such, we offer a few different options for keeping your systems up-to-date with payment activity that occurs.

Postbacks

One of the tools to keep you informed of payment activity is a postback. A postback is an HTTP request that is sent from PaymentExpress to your own system, at-or-near the moment a payment is made via PaymentExpress. These real-time postbacks can be sent for all types of integration. This sort of messaging allows for effectively real-time integration between our systems, ensuring that payment activity is reflected in your system as soon as possible after a payment was made.

Reconciliation Files

While postbacks are a powerful tool for informing your system of payment activity immediately, we also offer distribution of a daily bulk export of all payment activity to your system. This file can help you ensure that the state of each payment as understood by PaymentExpress and the payment processor is reflected in your system. The ultimate fallback reporting of activity, a reconciliation file, helps ensure that not even a single penny goes unaccounted for.

Payment Lookup API

While not technically a reconciliation mechanism, the PaymentExpress API also offers the ability to look up and reverse payments through our API as well. For more information about this API usage, see our Post Payment Operations.
