Cashier API Validation


Validation request is sent upon Cashier login (see {init-pay-in}, {init-pay-out}) when the customer has entered the payment details and submitted the deposit and payout request form. The validation call lets you apply the logic on the CRM side in order to confirm or reject this submission before the processing has been attempted.

{danger.fa-exclamation} IMPORTANT: For {init-checkout} and {init-pay-out-order} the validation is not called because both assume that the customer is sent to Cashier to do at most one successful deposit or payout request for the predefined amount. So the validation is ommitted and only the notifications are sent for these methods.
