We highly recommend that when you receive a notification from us, even after checking to ensure the hash values match, you should initiate a get transaction status request to us with either the paymentReference or transactionReference to confirm the actual status of that transaction before updating the records on your database.

GET: https://sandbox.monnify.com/api/v1/merchant/transactions/query

_{Please note that this endpoint is protected using basic authentication. We’ve touched on Basic Authentication in the Authentication section of this document.}

You can get the transaction status with a simple GET request to the get status endpoint and simply add either of the following query params in the table below
