 Payment og Transaction – What is the difference?

Payment is a term for an intentional, independent payment/donation.

transaction is a term for any transaction which is related to a payment, and it denotes that a payment amount was transferred from one account to another. This means that a payment can have transactions for Charge and Refund, provided that a refund has taken place. In this case both transactions are represented on your bank statement, even if only one payment exists.

The different states

A payment can reside in different states. They main states, and the most frequent states, are: pending, charged, failed, rejected and cancelled. Below you will find an overview of alle the different states a payment can reside in.

Needed for bookkeeping

  • Purpose Accounting Code
    This code is defined by the organisation and eases identifying the purpose of each payment for accounting.

  • Payment Method Accounting Code 
    This code is defined by OnlineFundraising and informs about the payment method. The payment method is relevant because different payment methods have different procedure for deposit and transaction fees.
