Some anti-fraud services may hold a transaction in review. If your chosen anti-fraud service supports this feature then you can enable manual reviews as part of the payment flow. This pauses a transaction and waits for the result of the review before proceeding.
A transaction in review

A transaction in review

When a transaction is marked for review the following steps are performed.
  • The transaction request is accepted
  • A call is made out to the anti-fraud service to fetch a decision
  • When the service requires a manual review, the transaction is marked as pending review
  • The transaction is authorized but does not continue to capture
  • When a support agent reviews the transaction a webhook is received
  • The pending review status is removed from the transaction
  • Either capture proceeds if that was the original intent, or the transaction is voided if it was rejected

Supported connections

The following anti-fraud services currently support manual reviews.
  • Cybersource Decision Manager
  • Sardine
  • Sift

Set up webhooks

To enable manual review you need to set up webhooks from your anti-fraud service to the system. This webhook is used to notify when a review has had a decision. To get the webhook URL, head over to your connection by going to Connections -> [Anti-Fraud connection] -> Synchronization and copying the webhook URL. Then follow the guide for your chosen anti-fraud service to set up the webhook in their dashboard.
