Note:
The Payments page lists all (batch) payments, with the most recent payment on top. After you accept the quote, you can select your payment and in the payment details you'll see the payment hopper. The payment hopper shows each payment state transition and the elapsed time between the payment states. Changes in green show successful states, while changes in red show stalled or failed states.
As soon as the payment is transferred, the status column will show Completed, which indicates that all payments in the batch have been successful and that funds have been moved. If any of the payments within the batch have failed or are still in progress, the status column will show Failed or In Progress accordingly. Select the Payment ID for details on why the payment has failed.
