API version 3
Introduction
To make API responses more user-friendly and comprehensive for you, eComCharge starts introducing the API version 3 (API v.3). The main changes relate to the response parameters and transaction status codes. The codes now go along with friendly messages for you to get more information about transaction processing.
As of September 15, 2022, the API v.3 is already configured for all https://processing.ecomcharge.com/
- endpoints. To submit requests, just add the X-API-Version: 3
header to the request. For response parameters and their description, please use the guide below.
For any other questions related to the eComCharge API v.3, you are welcome to contact our Tech Support Team on techsupport@ecomcharge.com.
Requests

or GET
requests to the API v.3 of the https://processing.ecomcharge.com/

Example of the API v.3 response to the payment transaction request
The sample transaction has the incomplete
status and the P.9998
code. Provided that the three_d_secure_verification
is the only section with the incomplete
status, the transaction could not be processed as the eComCharge system waits for the customer to take the 3-D Secure verification check.
