Question

I have successfully integrated the Silent Post feature with our system for ARB subscriptions. What I am now trying to do is when we refund a payment via the merchant interface, how do I distinguish a refund from all other transactions? Is the a special variable that is set for a refunded payment?

Answer 1

x_type will be set to “credit”

Here is an actual Silent Post verifying that (sensitive info is removed/changed)
