# Payments

The `payment` object is the core of the PayPro API. You can create payments to let a customer pay which ultimately transfers funds from them to you.

This allows you to setup one-time payments, recurring payments, subscriptions or invoices.

Refer to our [Creating payments guide](/docs/creating-payments) to see how you can implement payments.


## Retrieves a payment

 - [GET /payments/{id}](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/retrievepayment.md): Retrieves a single payment based on the id.

## Cancels a payment

 - [DELETE /payments/{id}](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/cancelpayment.md): Cancels a payment. It is possible to cancel payment only in open or initialiazed state.

## Retrieve a list of payments

 - [GET /payments](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/retrievelistofpayments.md): Retrieve a list of payments that have been created for your account. The payments are sorted, with the most recent first.

## Creates a payment

 - [POST /payments](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/createpayment.md): Creates a Payment object.

After you have created a Payment you can use the  link to redirect your customer.


## Retrieves a list of chargebacks that belong to this payment

 - [GET /payments/{id}/chargebacks](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/retrievelistofchargebacksbypayment.md): Retrieves a list of chargebacks that belong to this payment.

## Retrieves a list of refunds that belong to this payment.

 - [GET /payments/{id}/refunds](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/retrievelistofrefundsbypayment.md): Retrieves a list of refunds that belong to this payment.

## Creates a refund for this payment.

 - [POST /payments/{id}/refunds](https://docs.paypro.nl/reference/api/payments/createrefundforpayment.md): Creates a Refund object for this Payment.

Creating a refund will refund a certain amount back to the customer. This amount will be deducted from your balance.

You can choose to only refund a part of the total amount. You can do this multiple times, but the total refunded
amount can't exceed the payment amount.

Some pay methods require additional information, like IBAN and account holder name, to be supplied.
