Principal Protection (PPRO)

Principal Protection is a service that protects cross-border USD wire payments from variable intermediary and correspondent fees as the payment passes through the payment chain. For a fixed fee, this service ensures that the full value of the payment reaches the beneficiary without any fee deductions, with the remitter covering these fees.

Response types

Same-currency wire payments support the following response types:

• Processing
• Canceled
• Rejected
• Completed

For a full list of status response and error codes, see status responses and error codes.

Duplicate logic

A wire payment is irrevocable. If the same payment is sent twice, the status of the original payment is returned with the original paymentId. To confirm the status of any transaction, get the status of a wire payment.

Duplicate transactions

The Global Payments API supports idempotent calls, which are useful when initiating a payment, creating a client, making a change, or retrying a failed request due to issues like network problems.

If a wire payment shares the same endToEndId as another wire payment within a specified timeframe, the Global Payments API considers it duplicative.

The following table contains each country's specified timeframe:

Duplicate transaction timeframes for Wire

Country	Timeframe
South Africa	60 days
United States	60 days
All others	6 months to 1 year depending on client configuration setup
