Result process logic

In the response, the result.resultStatus field indicates the result of processing a request as follows.

resultStatus

Decription 

S

The corresponding result.resultCode is "SUCCESS" and the  result.resultMessage  is "Success".

That means that this transaction is successful. The merchant/partner can update transaction to success. What needs to note is :

  • In the payment evaluation scenario, 'S' just means that the evaluation is successful and there is no real fund transfer.  
  • In authorization payment scenario, 'S' just means that the authorization is successful, and need to wait for the capture operation to finish the  transaction (finish the final fund flow).

U

The corresponding result.resultCode is "UNKNOWN_EXCEPTION" and result.resultMessage  is "An API calling is failed, which is caused by unknown reasons.". For details, see the Common error codes section.

That means that unknown exception occurs on the wallet side. The merchant/partner can inquiry the payment result or wait for the payment status notification to get the real payment result. What needs to note is :

  • Payment evaluation scenario can not be inquiried.
  • `U` status can not set to fail or success on the merchant/partner system.
  • `U` status can not refund to users by offline (Maybe will make fund loss).

F

That means this transaction is failed. The corresponding result.resultCode  and result.resultMessage vary based on different situations. For details, see the following Error codes section.

Usually the `F` transactions can not be successful again if use the same payment request to call wallets.

Sample

Cashier Payment

For example, a user purchases a 100 USD good at the merchant/partner(online merchant usually) , the merchant/partner calls this API to create the payment order first, the wallet will return the payment order ID and wallet cashier page URL to the merchant/partner, then merchant/partner can redirect user to wallet cashier page with the my.tradePay  API.

  1. The Mini Program creates an order.
  2. The merchant server calls this pay interface with paymentNotifyUrl to initialte payment flow.
  3. E-wallet server returns payment detail information with paymentId to the merchant server.
  4. The merchant server passes the payment detail information to the Mini Program.
  5. The Mini Program calls the my.tradePay interface to conduct the payment.
  6. When the payment reaches the final status, the e-wallet server notifies the merchant server of the payment result with paymentNotifyUrl provided in Step 2 (Step 8).
  7. Also the E-wallet App returns the payment result to the Mini Program (Step 9).
