Problem
You receive AUTHORISATION webhook notifications for successful payments, but you never receive a CAPTURE webhook.
Why This Happens
The most common reason is the capture configuration on your account.
If your account is configured for automatic capture, the payment is captured immediately after authorization. In this case, a separate CAPTURE webhook is not always triggered.
CAPTURE webhooks are typically sent when:
Manual capture is enabled, or
Delayed capture is configured and capture occurs later.
How to Fix
Step 1 β Check your capture configuration
Verify whether your account uses:
Automatic capture
Manual capture
If you use manual capture, you must send a capture request after authorization.
Step 2 β Enable capture webhook events
Ensure the following events are enabled in your Standard webhook configuration:
CAPTURECAPTURE_FAILED
These notifications inform you when a capture request has been processed.
