Comment Cardflo gère les codes de réponse

Cardflo's orchestration layer inspects the raw response code from every processor, applies scheme-specific mapping, and feeds the outcome into intelligent routing and retry logic. Soft declines are retried through alternative acquirers or after customer prompts, while hard declines are suppressed so merchants avoid excessive-authorisation fees and protect their MID standing.

Foire aux questions

What is a payment response code?

A payment response code is a standardised value returned by the issuing bank after an authorisation attempt. It tells the merchant whether the transaction was approved, declined, or referred, and gives the reason for the outcome.

What should a merchant do when they receive response code 04, Pick-up Card?

Response code 04 means the issuer considers the card compromised, lost, or stolen. For in-person transactions, the merchant should retain the card if safe to do so. For online transactions, the order should be voided, the same card must not be retried, and the customer should be asked for a different payment method.

How does Cardflo use response codes in routing and retry logic?

Cardflo maps every issuer, acquirer and scheme response code into a canonical category. Soft declines are retried through an alternative acquirer route or after a short delay, while hard declines are suppressed to avoid excessive-authorisation fees. Code-aware orchestration typically recovers 5 to 15 per cent of otherwise-lost authorisations.

Which payment response codes are considered soft declines?

Soft declines include codes such as 05 (Do Not Honour) for transient risk rules, 51 (Insufficient Funds), 61 (Exceeds Withdrawal Limit), 91 (Issuer Unavailable), and PSD2 codes like 65 (SCA Required). These can generally be retried through a different acquirer, with 3D Secure, or after a short delay.

What is the difference between a hard decline and a soft decline?

A hard decline indicates a permanent reason the transaction cannot proceed, such as an invalid card number, lost or stolen card, or expired card. A soft decline indicates a temporary issue, such as insufficient funds or a timeout, where a retry may succeed under different conditions.
