  • ๐Ÿ†• New feature: Support for Partial Payments in Connect v1

    ๐Ÿ‘ The Connect SDK now supports partial payment functionality for the Connect v1 Transactions API with the addition of a new Payment field:

    • Payment.is_partial — Indicates whether or not the payment is only partially paid for. If true, the payment will have the tenders collected so far, but the itemizations will be empty until the payment is completed.

    Tender also includes 2 new fields to help resolve timing around payments with multiple tenders. Invoices that involve partial payment (e.g., requiring a deposit) may include tenders settled well before the entire payment is completed:

    • Tender.tendered_at — The time when the tender was accepted by the merchant.
    • Tender.settled_at — The time when the tender was captured, in ISO 8601 format. Typically the same as (or within moments of) tendered_at unless the tender was part of a delay capture transaction.

    The change also makes some behavioral changes to the Connect v1 Payment endpoints:

    • Create Refunds rejects requests for invoices that have partial payments pending.
    • List Payments takes a new request field, include_partial to indicate whether partial payments should be included in the response.
