# Unreferenced Refund
Ability to issue refunds independently of a specific transaction. Useful in scenarios where the original transaction cannot be directly referenced, such as when the original purchase record is no longer available and other unique refund situations.
To create an unreferenced refund, make an api call to the /authorization endpoint with an Authorization creatable
as body. The category
property needs to be set to "unref-refund".
POST /v1/authorization
{
"number": "<psp-id>"
"amount": 23.41,
"currency": "EUR",
"card": {
"pan": "4111111111111111",
"expires": [2, 24],
"csc": "987"
},
"target": "<callback_url>" // Only if Intergiro 3ds service is used
"category": "unref-refund"
}
If a verification required
error is returned 3DS needs to be performed. See the Integration types tab for guides how to perform 3DS depending on your integration.
