PAYMENT OPERATIONS

Fencair Payment Recovery

A standalone OpenCart extension focused on capturing payment failures, preserving useful order and payment context, and supporting controlled recovery workflows.

The extension is currently in standalone validation. Final compatibility and availability claims will be published only after clean-install testing is complete.

CURRENT VALIDATION SCOPE

What is being separated and tested

The production implementation is being converted into a standalone extension without private-store dependencies.

Payment failure capture

Capture failed payment events without depending on private checkout, theme or store-specific modifications.

Order and payment context

Preserve the identifiers and operational state needed for troubleshooting and recovery without storing unnecessary data.

Controlled recovery workflow

Define when recovery actions are permitted, suppressed or require manual review.

Admin visibility

Surface useful operational information so failures can be investigated without direct database access.

WORKFLOW

A controlled recovery pipeline

The extension treats payment recovery as an explicit operational workflow rather than an uncontrolled retry mechanism.

01

Payment failure detected

A supported payment failure event is captured together with the relevant order context.

02

Context normalized

Useful identifiers and failure information are normalized into a consistent recovery record.

03

Recovery rule evaluated

The extension determines whether recovery handling is allowed, suppressed or requires manual intervention.

04

Outcome recorded

The resulting action and state are logged so the workflow remains observable and auditable.

ADMIN VISIBILITY

Operational context without database inspection

The administration interface is intended to expose the information required to understand a failed payment and its recovery state while keeping the workflow bounded and maintainable.

FAQ

Payment Recovery questions

Current answers reflect the validation-stage product and will be updated as the release candidate is finalized.

Is Fencair Payment Recovery available for download?

Not yet. The extension is currently in standalone validation before public release.

Which OpenCart versions are supported?

Final OpenCart compatibility will be published after clean-install testing. Unlisted versions should be treated as unverified.

Which PHP versions are supported?

PHP compatibility testing is still in progress. Final supported versions will be listed in the compatibility matrix.

Does the extension depend on a specific OpenCart theme?

The release goal is a standalone extension without dependency on a private store theme or unrelated extension.

Does Payment Recovery automatically retry every failed payment?

No. Recovery handling is designed around explicit rules and controlled outcomes rather than uncontrolled automatic retries.

Will installation and uninstall instructions be provided?

Yes. Installation, configuration, upgrade, uninstall and troubleshooting documentation are part of the release gate.

DOCUMENTATION

Follow the validation and release documentation

Technical documentation will record compatibility, installation requirements, operational behavior and release changes as the extension moves toward a public build.
