File uploader

Our file uploader allows you to upload files to Checkout.com. You can then use these to provide evidence in a dispute.

Upload a file to use as evidence in a dispute. Your request must be multipart/form-data and the file must be in either JPEG/JPG, PNG or PDF format, and no larger than 4MB.

For the full specification, as well as complete request and response examples, see our API reference.

      -F "file=@/path/receipt.png;type=image/png"
      -F "purpose=dispute_evidence"
