### View transaction history

The transaction history of your terminal provides an overview of all completed payments. To access the summary, follow these steps:

1. Open the "Payment App" from the [main menu](/merchant/english/pos/tutorials/operating-the-terminal.md#menu-structure).
2. Tap the menu icon ☰ in the top left corner.
3. Select "Transaction History."

{% hint style="info" %}
Tap "Filter transactions" to narrow down the transactions displayed based on specific criteria.
{% endhint %}

### Transaction status

Each transaction has a specific status. The following table explains the meaning of each status:

<table><thead><tr><th width="200.370361328125">Status</th><th>Meaning</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Succesful</td><td>The payment was successfully processed.</td></tr><tr><td>Refunded</td><td>The payment was refunded.</td></tr><tr><td>Canceled</td><td>The payment was immediately reverted before another transaction took place.</td></tr><tr><td>Terminated</td><td>The payment was cancelled and no debit was made. This status also occurs when a payment expires (if no card is presented within one minute).</td></tr><tr><td>Expired</td><td>For cryptocurrency transactions, this status appears when no payment is made within ten minutes.</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Reconciliation with Payrexx

Credit card transactions generated via the card reader are not immediately visible in the Payrexx merchant administration, as reconciliation takes place overnight. The payments will be available in the [transaction overview](/merchant/english/taptopay/transaction-overview.md) of your Payrexx account the following morning.

TWINT transactions, on the other hand, are visible in Payrexx immediately after the payment process is completed.
