Why did I get API error code 10610?

The error Amount specified exceeds allowable limit may occur when performing the following API calls:

  • DoAuthorization.
  • DoCapture.
  • DoReauthorization.
  • DoVoid.
  • UpdateAuthorization.

To resolve it, try the request again with a lower amount.

If you receive the error Capture amount is either less than the minimum threshold amount or exceeds the maximum allowed while performing a DoCapture API call, reattempt the request with a higher or lower amount.
