Adds a field explaning why refunds are pending

What’s new

Adds the pending_reason field to the Refunds API. The new field describes why the refund is pending, returning possible values of:

  • processing: The refund is processing.
  • insufficient_funds: The balance of the Stripe account is insufficient to cover the refund.
  • charge_pending: The payment being refunded hasn’t settled yet.

Impact

If the status of a refund is pending, you can inspect the pending_reason field to understand why and take necessary actions to resolve it.
