# Payment Already Captured

> The payment has already been captured

## Cause

This payment is already captured. Guile will not capture it again, so no second
charge is created.

## Fix

[Get the appointment](/api-reference/appointments/get-an-appointment) (or read
the contactless payment) and continue with
[refund](/api-reference/appointments/refund-an-appointment-payment) or the next
booking step. Do not call capture again for this payment.

## Retry safety

Not retryable

## Raised by
