Processing a Stand-Alone Credit

This section describes how to process a stand-alone credit in Cloud mode. This type of transaction is used to process a credit without reference to the original transaction. The customer is required to present their card for this type of transaction.
WARNING
When processing a stand-alone credit, there is no limit on the credit amount because there is no reference to the original transaction amount. The recommendation is to use a refund transaction whenever possible. For more information, see Processing a Refund.
Generate a bearer token before sending each request. For more information, see Generating a Bearer Token for Authentication.
