  title: Ravelin Merchant Connect API
  version: '2'
  description: 'The Ravelin Merchant API is the REST surface used by merchants to submit customer, order, login,

    registration, transaction, payment, voucher, supplier, dispute, refund, payout, and reclaim events

    to Ravelin and receive back a real-time risk decision. Each endpoint is POST-only, accepts a JSON

    payload, and returns a decision envelope containing the recommended `action` (ALLOW / REVIEW /

    PREVENT), the decision `source`, a 0-100 fraud `score`, a unique `scoreId`, the triggered `rules`,

    and any data-quality `warnings`.


    Authentication is via an `Authorization: token sk_live_...` (or `sk_test_...`) header. Per-merchant

    rate limits scale horizontally; a global per-customer rate limit of 50 events/minute is enforced

    and returns a 200 with `action=PREVENT` and `source=RATE_LIMIT`.


    Endpoints documented at https://developer.ravelin.com/merchant/api/.
