What is a webhook?

Access Worldpay webhooks provide you with real-time information about the status of your requests. Setting up a webhook means you automatically receive updates when there is a status change with your request.

Info

Event acknowledgement

Respond with a HTTP(S) response code 200 to confirm you've received the event.

Warning

Not acknowledging can cause delays (or loss) of subsequent events in the queue.

If a 200 event confirmation response is not received within 10 seconds, we retry the event until the confirmation is received.
Retry intervals increase based on the number of attempts, the time intervals increase starting 15 minutes to 2 hours per event.
The retry mechanism stops re-sending each event after either; an acknowledgement (200) is received, or after one week of attempting to send the event.
