From query to confirmed status

Every check runs through the same three stages.

Submit the query

Reference, amount, currency, date and your email — that's all we need to start.

Match the transaction

checker247 scans the processing network for the payment that fits your details.

Return the status

You get a clear result — cleared, pending or declined — and a receipt by email.

What each result means

Plain-language definitions for every status checker247 can return.

cleared

The payment was authorised and settled. The merchant has received the funds and your receipt is final.

pending

The amount is authorised but not yet captured. It usually settles within a few business days, or is released.

declined

The payment did not go through. No funds left your account; you can safely retry with your provider.
