Cheque lifecycle

A cheque progresses through two phases:

• Transaction – where the cheque is issued and dispatched, following the standard transaction lifecycle
  For more information, see Transaction lifecycle.
• Cheque – where the cheque is either cashed or voided

As the cheque progresses through these phases, its status updates until it reaches a terminal state.

Checking the current cheque status using the API

Send:

GET /transactionRequests/{id}

To check the current status of a cheque, retrieve the transaction request using its ID.

You can also monitor cheque status updates using webhook notifications.

Cheque statuses

After a cheque is successfully issued as a transaction (with a Succeeded status), it enters the cheque-specific phase of the lifecycle.
