Pending payments from additional providers
When the payment status for an order isPayment pending, then you might be restricted from editing, canceling, or manually collecting payment for the order. These restrictions can apply to orders where the customer paid using cryptocurrency, wire, barcodes, or other alternatives to credit card payments.
The restrictions are there to keep information synchronized between your payment provider's system and your Shopify order, and to support a smooth payment process.
Depending on the payment type, it can take several days for a payment provider to process a payment. In this case, the provider marks your order payment status asPayment pendingto indicate that they've started processing, but need time to complete the payment. Pending payments have an expiry date, which is typically a week.
