Fiat Orders

Fiat orders are card payments processed by us. This page covers:

List fiat orders (GET /api/fiat/orders) — cursor pagination
Create a fiat order (POST /api/fiat/orders) — returns payUrl + qrUrl
Delete a fiat order by reference (DELETE /api/fiat/orders?reference=...) — proxy-friendly safety delete
Fetch a fiat order by orderKey (GET /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey) — includes pricing + fee snapshot
Cancel a fiat order by orderKey (DELETE /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey) — cancels upstream PSP order
Cancel a fiat order by reference (DELETE /api/fiat/orders/cancel?reference=...)
List refunds (GET /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey/refunds)
Create a refund (POST /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey/refunds) — supports partial/multiple refunds

Base URL

All examples use:

https://www.niftipay.com

Authentication

These endpoints support two authentication methods:

1) API Key (recommended for integrations)

Send your API key in the x-api-key header.

curl -X GET "https://www.niftipay.com/api/fiat/orders" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

If you are authenticated via the dashboard.

Concepts

Amounts are stored in minor units

Fiat orders store monetary values as minor units (e.g. cents):

amountCents — what the customer will pay (total)
subtotalCents — the base subtotal (before service fee if customer pays)
serviceFeeCents — total service maintenance fee (provider + platform), if applicable

Currency minor unit rules

This implementation supports currencies with:

0 decimals (e.g. JPY)
2 decimals (most currencies)
3 decimals (e.g. BHD)

When you send amount as a string/number, it is converted to minor units using the currency’s decimal rules and rejects too many decimals.

Service fee payer

The fiat checkout supports a service maintenance fee with two payer modes:

serviceFeePayer = "customer"
Customer pays: total = subtotal + fee
The fee is shown as a line item in pricing.
serviceFeePayer = "merchant"
Customer pays: total = subtotal
The fee is deducted from merchant earnings (not shown to customer as a separate line in pricing).

If serviceFeePayer is not provided on create, the system falls back to the user’s default (GET /api/fiat/settings).

References and uniqueness

On creation, the route normalizes a reference from:

reference (preferred)
else merchantReference (fallback)

Then it checks cross-type uniqueness for your account:

cannot conflict with a crypto order reference
cannot conflict with an existing fiat order reference

If there is a conflict, the API returns 409.

Pricing and fee snapshots

Responses include:

`pricing`

A stable, UI-friendly breakdown:

payer (customer or merchant)
subtotalCents, serviceFeeCents, totalCents
serviceFeePercent (may be null)
lines (Subtotal / Service maintenance fee / Total)

`fees` (order details endpoint only)

A stable snapshot structure (written by registerFiatOrderFees()), including:

service fee split (provider vs platform)
payout fee / retention hold
vendor net / payable now after deductions

Older orders may have some snapshot fields null; the API still returns a stable object with safe defaults.

Payment URL + QR Code

All fiat order responses include:

payUrl — the masked payment link to redirect the customer to
qrUrl — a QR code image URL encoding the payUrl, ready to embed in checkout UIs

The qrUrl uses the same external QR API as crypto orders:

https://api.qrserver.com/v1/create-qr-code?size=300x300&data=<encoded payUrl>

You can display the QR image directly in an <img> tag or embed it in mobile checkout flows.

Delete Fiat Order (by reference)

Endpoint

DELETE /api/fiat/orders?reference=<reference> This is a proxy-friendly delete that mirrors your crypto delete behavior. Matching rules:

first tries strict match: fiatOrder.merchantReference === reference (newest first)
fallback: if reference is numeric, match by fiatOrder.orderKey === Number(reference)

Safety rules

Deletion is conservative:

You cannot delete completed, paid, or refunded orders
If pspOrderId exists, the order must already be cancelled before deletion

Example request

curl -X DELETE "https://www.niftipay.com/api/fiat/orders?reference=POS-1234" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Success response

204 No Content

Error responses

Missing reference (400)

{ "error": "reference query-param required" }

Not found (404)

{ "error": "Order not found" }

Cannot delete completed/paid/refunded (409)

{ "error": "Cannot delete – order status is \"completed\"" }

Must cancel first (409)

{
  "error": "Cannot delete – order must be cancelled first (call DELETE /api/fiat/orders/cancel?reference=...)"
}

Cancel Fiat Order (by orderKey)

Endpoint

DELETE /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey This attempts to cancel the upstream PSP order (NoPayn) and then updates the local DB.

Behavior

If already cancelled, returns current state (idempotent).
If status is completed, cancellation is blocked (safe default).
Requires pspOrderId to exist.
Only psp="nopayn" is supported here.

Example request

curl -X DELETE "https://www.niftipay.com/api/fiat/orders/2221" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

Example response

Cancel error examples

Invalid orderKey (400)

{ "error": "Invalid orderKey" }

Not found (404)

{ "error": "Not found" }

Completed cannot be cancelled (409)

{ "error": "Order is completed and cannot be cancelled" }

Missing pspOrderId (409)

{ "error": "Missing PSP order id (pspOrderId)" }

PSP not supported (501)

{ "error": "Cancel not implemented for psp=stripe" }

Upstream cancel failed (502 or provider status code)

{ "error": "Upstream cancel failed", "details": null }

Cancel Fiat Order (by reference)

Endpoint

DELETE /api/fiat/orders/cancel?reference=<reference> Cancel using the same matching rules as delete-by-reference:

strict merchantReference match
numeric fallback to orderKey

Example request

curl -X DELETE "https://www.niftipay.com/api/fiat/orders/cancel?reference=POS-1234" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

Responses

Returns order + pricing + nopayn on success
Same error patterns as cancel by orderKey

Refunds (Fiat)

Refunds are executed at the PSP level (NoPayn) and support partial / multiple refunds. Refund creation is conservative:

Only for kind="order" (not payment links)
Only allowed when order is paid or completed
Prevents over-refund by reading current refunds from NoPayn first

Refund ceiling depends on service fee payer:

If serviceFeePayer="customer": refundable ceiling = total paid (amountCents)
If serviceFeePayer="merchant": refundable ceiling = subtotal only (subtotalCents)
(Because the customer never paid the service fee)

List refunds

Endpoint

GET /api/fiat/orders/:orderKey/refunds Returns:

refunds (from NoPayn)
computed meta: maxRefundableCents, refundedCents, remainingRefundableCents

Example request

curl -X GET "https://www.niftipay.com/api/fiat/orders/2221/refunds" \

Node.js Example

A complete Node.js example showing how to create a fiat payment order with pricing breakdown and response parsing.

const result = await apiRequest("POST", "/api/fiat/orders", {
  // Your fiat integration ID (Dashboard → Settings → Fiat)
  integrationId: "YOUR_INTEGRATION_ID",

  // Fiat currency (ISO 4217 code)
  currency: "EUR",

  // Amount in major units (e.g. 19.95 = €19.95)
  amount: 19.95,
  // Or use minor units: amountCents: 1995

  // Short description shown on payment page (optional)
  description: "Widget purchase",

  // Your unique reference (optional — max 80 characters)
  reference: "FIAT-ORDER-001",

  // Who pays the processing fee: "customer" or "merchant" (optional)
  serviceFeePayer: "customer",

  // Customer email for receipts (optional)
  email: "jane.doe@example.com",
});

// Key response fields:
// result.order.payUrl              — redirect customer here
// result.order.id                  — Niftipay order ID
// result.reference                 — your reference
// result.order.status              — "new" initially
// result.qrUrl                     — QR code for payment page
// result.display.subtotal          — requested amount
// result.display.serviceFee        — processing fee
// result.display.total             — total charged
// result.pricing.payer             — who pays the fee
// result.pricing.serviceFeeBreakdown.totalPercent — fee %

Status notes

Fiat order status values come from the PSP status field in practice (e.g. NoPayn’s status), plus local states:

new — created locally (and usually also created upstream)
cancelled — cancelled locally (and upstream when possible)
completed / paid — successful payment
refunded — fully refunded (local state set when refundable remaining reaches 0)
error — upstream create failed
