Response and action code mapping
Each action taken on a transaction is associated with a code; different codes are assigned to the same action by different parties/networks i.e. Mastercard, Visa, Remote API, Transaction Stream.
The table below shows the different codes used by Mastercard, UnionPay and Visa and how they are mapped to Remote API Response Codes and Paymentology’s Transaction Stream (PubNub).
