Capture Payment
This endpoint performs a direct payment capture and is the equivalent of capturing a credit card.
This operation is [idempotent](../../docs/online-api/idempotent-requests.md) based on the token, which allows for the safe retry of requests, guaranteeing the payment operation is only performed once.
**Note**: Since the idempotency of this endpoint is based on the `token`, the inclusion of a `requestId` is not required.
