Follow-On Credits

This section provides the information you need in order to process a
follow-on credit
, which is linked to a capture or sale.
You must request a
follow-on credit
 within 180 days of the authorization.
When your account is enabled for credit authorizations, also known as purchase return authorizations,
Cybersource
 authenticates the card and customer during a credit request. Every credit request is automatically authorized.
Credit authorization results are returned in these response fields:
  • ccCreditReply_authorizationCode
  • ccCreditReply_paymentNetworkTransactionID
  • ccCreditReply_processorResponse
When you request a void for the credit and the credit is voided. If your account is enabled for credit authorizations, the credit authorization is also reversed.
