Below is a list of the different modes where the payment can be displayed in the Merchant panel and an explanation of what it is. state means.
New
- A payment has been created in the system, but it has not been paid. Transactions with the "new" status occur when a customer goes to the checkout in your online store and is shown the payment methods, but has not proceeded from there.
