Wallet transactions

Learn how wallet transactions provide insight into funds that move in and out of an account’s wallet.

For each transfer, a corresponding transaction is created representing how that initial source impacted a wallet. This granularity enables you to:

Reconcile a wallet’s balance on any given day
Create itemized reports leveraging transaction types (fees earned and paid, payouts, refunds, etc)
Monitor your wallet activity to stay informed on the latest transactions

Each transaction is paired with a detailed memo that provides more context about the transaction. For additional insight into how the transaction was created, you can provide the source ID to grab details. The source ID is used to link back to a transfer, dispute, or card issuing transaction.

You can retrieve the sourceID using the wallet transaction GET endpoint.

Pending transactions

A pending transaction will only apply to credits, or incoming funds. Any funds in a pending state will not affect the wallet balance, or be available for use until that transaction is completed. If a pending transaction results in a failure, we’ll simply omit it from the transaction list.

Use the wallet GET endpoint to check a wallet’s available balance or access a failed transaction’s details.

Completed transactions

The available balance at the time of transaction is included on each completed wallet transaction. Once a transaction moves to completed, the completedOn timestamp will be populated along with the availableBalance.

The list wallet transactions and retrieve a wallet transaction endpoints will display the transactionType in the response. We categorize wallet transactions by the following distinct types:

View transactions via API

Provide the accountID and walletID path parameters to the following endpoints to view wallet transactions for an account. Retrieving a specific wallet transaction additionally requires the transactionID.

Retrieve a wallet transaction - Gets a specific wallet transaction
List wallet transactions - Lists all transactions associated with a wallet

An account ID (also referred to as X-Account-ID) can be found in the Dashboard by navigating to Settings > Business details. Your account ID will be listed at the top of the Business details section and you can copy it to your clipboard.

Navigate to the Wallet section of the Dashboard and click the menu option in the wallet summary section. You’ll be able to copy the wallet ID to your clipboard. You can also retrieve a wallet ID by providing accountID to the list payment methods GET endpoint.

A transaction ID can be found by navigating to Wallet in the Dashboard and clicking on a transaction to open the details. In the details modal, the transaction ID can be copied to your clipboard. You can also retrieve a transaction ID by passing accountID and walletID to the list transactions GET endpoint.

You can achieve a faster response by restricting the data with the optional start and end date time parameters.

Adjustments

There are one-off scenarios where Moov may make an immediate adjustment to a wallet’s balance. Some examples include partial chargebacks, fee adjustments, or corrections from transaction processing. You’ll receive a walletTransaction.updated webhook notification once the adjustment is made. More details about the adjustment can be found in the wallet transaction memo and the source type will link to the adjustmentID.

To retrieve a specific wallet adjustment or list all adjustments for a specific wallet, you can use the endpoints listed below. You’ll need to pass the walletID to each endpoint, and to retrieve a specific adjustment, you’ll also need to pass the adjustmentID.

Retrieve a wallet adjustment - Gets a specific wallet adjustment
List wallet adjustments - Lists all adjustments associated with a wallet
