I have successfully set up a Quick Pay Checkout transaction. It works in sandbox and production. I have also set up a query via CURL (CURL equivalent) to query the transaction using: curl [https://connect.squareup.com/v2/orders/{order\_id}](https://connect.squareup.com/v2/orders/%7Border_id%7D) \ -H ‘Square-Version: 2025-10-16’ \ -H ‘Authorization: Bearer ACCESS\_TOKEN’ \ -H ‘Content-Type: application/json’ However, how can I be sure that the amount was approved? The response comes back with a state of “OPEN” which I assume is a pending transaction that will be auto batched at midnight or some other time tonight. Does “OPEN” mean that the charge was valid and approved? Is there some other field in that response that I can use? ---

I still do not have an answer on this. ---

In the context of Square’s APIs, an order with a state of “OPEN” does not necessarily indicate that the payment has been approved or completed. The “OPEN” state typically means that the order is still active and has not been fully processed or completed. To determine if a payment has been approved, you should look at the payment status rather than the order state. You can retrieve the payment details using the Payments API by calling the `GetPayment` endpoint with the payment ID associated with the order. The payment status will provide more definitive information about whether the charge was successful. A payment status of “COMPLETED” indicates that the payment was successfully processed and approved. If you are using the Orders API and want to ensure that the order is fully paid, you should check the tenders array within the order object to see if the payments have been authorized and captured. If the payment is still pending, it might not yet be reflected as completed in the order state. In summary, to confirm that a charge was valid and approved, check the payment status using the Payments API rather than relying solely on the order state. _This answer was reviewed by @Bryan-Square._ ---

Well, I would love to use the GetPayment endpoint. However, when using the Quick Pay Checkout and “[https://connect.squareup.com/v2/orders/”](https://connect.squareup.com/v2/orders/%E2%80%9D) there is no payment\_id in the response. How does the Quick Pay Checkout does not provide access to the payment status? ---

When a customer pays in the Square checkout page and they’re redirected the `order_id` will be added to the end of the redirect URL. You can take the `order_id` and call `RetrieveOrder` with the ID. The `payment_id` will be in the order and it will have a `tender`. That’s how you can confirm that the payment was made for the payment link. 🙂 ---

Thank you! I also did manage to look back over the response and found it in the structure. So, now it’s working!
