The Transaction Status API enables merchants to provide their customers and service agents with Ratepay's payment details at any customer contact point. This allows the merchant to remain the face to customers while gaining additional supplier services. The Transaction Status API is built around RESTful principles. It is HTTPS-based and uses JSON as the request and response format. It delivers standard HTTP response types.
