# Capture Full Payment

POST https://global-api-sandbox.afterpay.com/v2/payments/capture
Content-Type: application/json

This endpoint performs a payment capture for the full value of the payment plan.

This operation is idempotent based on the token, which allows for the safe retry of requests, guaranteeing the payment operation is only performed once.

Since the idempotency of this endpoint is based on the token, the inclusion of a `requestId` is not required.
