Custom Payment Methods & Receipt Review
Custom payment methods provide instructions for a transfer completed outside MidpointPay. Submitting a receipt creates an unverified payment claim. An authorized administrator must independently confirm receipt before the app records funding.
Reviewed against the current app:
How do I submit a payment reference?#
Open an accepted agreement and follow the enabled payment instructions for its currency. Complete the transfer outside the app, then submit the reference and optional supporting file.
- Open the accepted agreement using its View button.
- Choose a payment method matching the agreement currency.
- Follow the displayed destination and reference instructions outside MidpointPay.
- Enter your payment reference and, optionally, select an uploaded supporting file.
- Submit the reference for independent administrator review.
Does a receipt or screenshot confirm funding?#
No. A receipt or reference alone does not confirm funding. An administrator must independently check receipt in the destination account, enter a unique settlement reference, and record a confirmation. The app then updates the transaction and its balanced financial journal.
What does a pending or rejected submission mean?#
Pending means that the claim is awaiting independent review. Rejected means that the administrator has not accepted the claim; read the review note and contact the administrator about any correction. Do not send a second transfer merely because the first claim is pending or rejected.
What if payment instructions change after I have paid?#
Payment submissions retain a snapshot of the instructions used. Previously displayed enabled instructions can still be used to report a transfer after an administrator edits the method. If the instructions are unavailable, contact the administrator and do not make another transfer.
Does MidpointPay automatically charge cards or send payouts?#
No automatic card collection, refund or payout provider is connected. Custom methods record externally completed transfers and reviewed receipts. Funding confirmation is a record of reviewed receipt, not an automatic outgoing transfer.
What is the difference between authorizing and confirming a payout or refund?#
Authorization records the buyer approval or administrator dispute decision and creates a pending settlement stage. Confirmation records an actual completed external transfer after independent verification. Manual settlement uses the agreement currency and full amount, retains a unique transfer reference and posts a balanced journal. The app does not initiate the transfer.
What if no payment method is available?#
An administrator must configure and enable a method matching the agreement currency. The app does not convert the agreement into another currency or supply a payment destination when no matching method exists.
