Once all transactions are processed, BlueSnap sends the full batch result to the callback URL you provided in the request. Some of the transactions may be successfully processed and some may be failed. However, as long as the batch file was successfully processed, the callback status of the batch will be `completed`. For an example of the batch result that is sent to your callback URL after the transactions have been processed, see [Example Batch Result](doc:batch-processing-tutorial#section-example-batch-result).\n[block:callout]\n{\n  \"type\": \"info\",\n  \"title\": \"Transaction limit per batch\",\n  \"body\": \"There is a limit of 2000 transactions per batch.\"\n}\n[/block]\n<a class=\"btn btn-success\" href=\"#section-api-explorer\" role=\"button\">Try it in the API Explorer</a>\n\n###Request Content\n`batch-transaction` *container* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"color:#F37500\">**required**</span>, contains the following properties (see [batch-transaction](doc:batch-transaction)):\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;`batch-id` *string* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"color:#F37500\">**required**</span>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;`callback-url` *string* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"color:#F37500\">**required**</span>\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;`card-transaction` *container* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"color:#F37500\">**required** for credit card transactions</span> (see [card-transaction](doc:card-transaction))\n&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;`alt-transaction` *container* &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style=\"color:#F37500\">**required** for ACH/ECP, SEPA, or PayPal transactions</span> (see [alt-transaction](doc:alt-transaction))\n\n###Response Details\nIf successful, the response HTTP status code is 201 Created.\nNote that if an error occurs, the error format is slightly different from other error types.

[Create Batch Transaction with vaulted shoppers](create-batch-transaction#section-create-batch-transaction-with-vaulted-shoppers)\n  * [Create Batch Transaction with PayPal recurring subscription payment](create-batch-transaction#section-create-batch-transaction-with-paypal-recurring-subscription-payment)\n  * [Create Batch Transaction with encrypted card details](create-batch-transaction#section-create-batch-transaction-with-encrypted-card-details)\n \n###Basic Create Batch Transaction\nThis example shows a basic Create Batch Transaction request, containing two `card-transaction` resources with the required fields to process a credit card payment. \n\nNote that within each `card-transaction` resource you can use any of the options available for a single [Auth Capture](doc:auth-capture) or [Create PayPal Transaction](doc:create-paypal-transaction) (recurring subscription payment only) request, such as using a vaulted shopper, sending encrypted card information, including metadata, and so on. \n\n###Create Batch Transaction with vaulted shoppers\nTo perform a Create Batch Transaction request with existing vaulted shoppers, you'll need to include the `vaulted-shopper-id` property within the `card-transaction` or `alt-transaction` resources in your request.\n\nRemember to include the card's last four digits if multiple cards are saved for the shopper.\n\nAbove is an example of a request with a vaulted shopper ID within each `card-transaction` resource.\n\n###Create Batch Transaction with PayPal recurring subscription payment\nTo perform batch transactions with PayPal payments for subscriptions, you will need to send the  `alt-transaction` resource in your request, and include in it the `paypal-transaction` resource, with the `paypal-subscription-id` element.\n\nThe request should contain only one transaction per unique `paypal-subscription-id`.\n\nOn the right is an example of a request with one PayPal subscription transaction.\n\nFor more information, see [Merchant-managed PayPal subscriptions](doc:subscription-management#section-processing-merchant-managed-paypal-subscription-payments).\n\n###Create Batch Transaction with encrypted card details\nYour PCI compliance requirements and API permission level may require that you send credit card data in encrypted format only. To do this, you'll need to include the `encrypted-card-number` and `encrypted-security-code` properties within the `card-transaction` resources in your request.\n\nOn the right is an example of a request with encrypted credit card numbers within each `card-transaction` resource.\n\n<br>\n<a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"#\" role=\"button\">Back to Top</a>\n\n<hr>\n\n##API Explorer\nTo test out a call, enter the XML portion of the request below and then click **Try it!**\nIn order to get a successful response, you must enter a unique batch ID in the `batch-id` property.\n\n**Tip**: Copy the XML portion from one of the example requests above, or use the XML code below as a starting point. You can enter different parameters and  test credit card numbers to see how your test scenario would work. *The request headers, including authorization, are already built in for you in this test area, so you should not include them here.*\n[block:code]\n{\n  \"codes\": [\n    {\n      \"code\": \"<batch-transaction xmlns=\\\"http://ws.plimus.com\\\">\\n  <batch-id>567890</batch-id>\\n  <callback-url>http://example.com/batch_callback</callback-url>\\n  <card-transaction>\\n    <card-transaction-type>AUTH_CAPTURE</card-transaction-type>\\n    <merchant-transaction-id>566</merchant-transaction-id>\\n    <amount>20.00</amount>\\n    <currency>USD</currency>\\n    <card-holder-info>\\n      <first-name>Joe</first-name>\\n      <last-name>Example</last-name>\\n    </card-holder-info>\\n    <credit-card>\\n      <card-number>4263982640269299</card-number>\\n      <expiration-month>02</expiration-month>\\n      <expiration-year>2023</expiration-year>\\n    </credit-card>\\n  </card-transaction>\\n    <card-transaction>\\n    <card-transaction-type>AUTH_CAPTURE</card-transaction-type>\\n    <merchant-transaction-id>567</merchant-transaction-id>\\n    <amount>25.00</amount>\\n    <currency>USD</currency>\\n    <card-holder-info>\\n      <first-name>Jane</first-name>\\n      <last-name>Shopper</last-name>\\n    </card-holder-info>\\n    <credit-card>\\n      <card-number>4111111111111111</card-number>\\n      <expiration-month>07</expiration-month>\\n      <expiration-year>2023</expiration-year>\\n    </credit-card>\\n  </card-transaction>\\n</batch-transaction>\",\n      \"language\": \"xml\"\n    }\n  ]\n}\n[/block]","updates":[],"order":0,"isReference":true,"hidden":false,"sync_unique":"","link_url":"","link_external":false,"_id":"5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1168","category":{"sync":{"isSync":false,"url":""},"pages":[],"title":"Batch Transactions","slug":"batch-payment-transaction-service","order":7,"from_sync":false,"reference":true,"_id":"5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1115","version":"5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f11c2","project":"57336fd5a6a9c40e00e13a0b","createdAt":"2015-10-19T18:30:57.575Z","__v":0},"project":"57336fd5a6a9c40e00e13a0b","user":"560d5913af97231900938124","parentDoc":null,"version":{"version":"8976-XML","version_clean":"8976.0.0-XML","codename":"3.35 Release","is_stable":false,"is_beta":false,"is_hidden":false,"is_deprecated":false,"categories":["5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1110","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1111","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1112","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1113","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1114","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1115","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1116","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1117","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1118","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1119","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111a","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111b","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111c","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111d","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111e","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f111f","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1120","5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f1121","5f47e410bd05ef0011069965"],"_id":"5f43d7f192d43e01ff6f11c2","project":"57336fd5a6a9c40e00e13a0b","__v":1,"forked_from":"5ed5174637c3c607440c0a3c","createdAt":"2018-04-24T15:24:22.608Z","releaseDate":"2018-04-24T15:24:22.608Z"},"createdAt":"2016-01-21T19:34:10.183Z","githubsync":"","__v":0}
