Pending
: Transaction was submitted to the payment gateway.

Transmitted
: Transaction was sent to the bank or financial institution for settlement.

Completed
: No returns was received for this transaction 3 days after it was sent for settlement. The transaction is considered to be completed unless an atypical return is received later.
