Pending Transactions Despite Payment Confirmation

Last updated Jul 19, 2026

Question

Why do I see several pending transactions in Dryfta even when payment confirmation has been received from the credit card company?

Answer

If you notice pending transactions in Dryfta even after receiving payment confirmation from the credit card company, it may be due to the Advanced Fraud Detection Suite (AFDS) setting enabled in your Authorize.Net payment gateway configuration. 

When AFDS is ON, Authorize.Net may respond with "Result Reason Code: 252 - Your order has been received. Thank you for your business!" which Dryfta interprets as a decline and marks the order as pending. 

To avoid this, it is recommended to turn OFF the Advanced Fraud Detection Suite in your Authorize.Net 1 Payment Gateway settings. This prevents Dryfta from misinterpreting approved transactions as declined, reducing confusion and potential multiple charges to customers.
