Pay Invoice

Make a payment against an invoice.

This method triggers the following webhooks:

Invoice Payment Created Webhook - This webhook contains the same information as the response.
Invoice Finalized Webhook
Invoice Payment Succeeded Webhook

The following asynchronous webhooks provide information about later changes to the Invoice object:

Depending on the request values, some of these webhooks are triggered synchronously.

Note

Before you pay an invoice with a token for a payment method, verify that the value of is_tokenizable is true.
If the payment method category is card, certain operations require 3DS authentication. To simulate this authentication in the sandbox, use the URL from the redirect_url field that appears in the response and in Invoice Payment Created Webhook and Payment Succeeded Webhook. See Simulating 3DS Authentication.
A card payment that requires 3DS authentication must be authenticated within 15 minutes.
