Additional information
Split payments
Our platform supports the CV Connect "Split payments” feature, allowing your customers to split the amount to be paid between CV Connect vouchers and credit card payment methods (Visa, MasterCard and Cartes Bancaires).
This feature is activated by default in your account and automatically rolled out when applicable, greatly easing CV Connect transaction management and reconciliation.
Amount blocking
By default, your customers can adapt the amount to be paid with CV Connect vouchers in their app. However, you can block this feature by adding property redirectPaymentMethodSpecificInput.paymentProduct5412SpecificInput.adjustablAmount to the CreateHostedCheckout/CreatePayment request. Set it to either "true"/"false" to (not) allow your customers to change the amount to be paid with vouchers.
Refund processing
When processing refunds for CV Connect transactions, keep the following in mind:
Refund availability depends on the payment methods selected for the payment. Not all payment methods support refunds.
If a payment has been split between CV Connect vouchers and card payment methods, our platform will first refund the amount paid by card.
If the refund amount exceeds the card payment share, CV Connect vouchers will be refunded. Our platform applies this principle for both one-time partial and multiple refunds.
CV Connect refunds are only possible within 4 hours after the payment is made!
