Approves an outbound payment order awaiting approval. Transitions status from AWAITING_APPROVAL to PENDING and submits the order to the provider network.
Approval is a one-way commit. Once approved, the order moves to PENDING and cannot be canceled — it will reach a final state (SUCCESS or FAILED) on the provider’s timeline. Verify amounts, recipients, and business rules before calling this endpoint.

​
Preconditions

Verify state via Get payment order before approving if you cannot guarantee single-writer semantics in your caller.

​
Effect

  • status → PENDING
  • locked on the wallet increases by amount
  • The order is submitted to the provider; settlement is asynchronous
