Not all transactions are immediately completed; some enter a pending state. Here's what it entails:

Why do Transactions Enter a Pending State

Pending transactions serve as a critical security layer, enhancing protection, preventing fraud, and ensuring customer safety

Who Can Release A Pending Transaction

Only the merchant can release a pending transaction. You will need to contact them

directly and ask them to release your money.

How long do transactions stay Pending

If the merchant does not release your money, our system will automatically decline the payment after 9 business days.

How do I know if a Transaction is Pending

Pending transactions will be highlighted in the transaction with the word Pending in red.
