JSON of status and data. data will carry transaction response object if call is successful, if not, it will carry a string representation of the error message. Even if status is success, always look out for the IsSuccessful property of the data object which must be true to show that the transaction is fully successful.

Always look out for the IsSuccessful property of the data object in the response. A status=success alone is not enough to determine that your transaction is successful

Its always a good practice to log all responses from Collecta for future reference.
