An expected payment is a payment that you expect to be credited or debited on your connected account.

While payment orders, incoming payments, and returns are initiated through Mambu Payments, an expected payment is a payment that is not initiated through Mambu Payments, but that you nonetheless want to track and reconcile with one or multiple transactions.

An expected payment is typically a payment expected from a customer or a payment service provider.
