Reason Codes

Wix uses reason codes to provide detailed information about the statuses of payment, refund, and account connection requests to merchants. Payment Service Providers (PSPs) should use these codes when responding to requests from Wix and when sending webhooks to Wix.

The reason codes break down into these types:

The following tables list the reason codes that Wix supports for each type and the error messages that Wix displays to merchants for each code.

We suggest that PSPs map their internal errors to Wix's reason codes. This way, both merchants handling payments in the Wix dashboard and buyers who are completing their payments on the PSP's site get consistent error messages.

If you can't find a reason code for your error, use code 6000. Provide the error details in the errorCode and errorMessage fields of your response so the merchant can handle it properly.
