If there is an option to create a new payment via the API then it would make sense that an automatic receipt email should be sent out as well or at least the option whether to trigger this or not.

We have created our custom payment integration using the APIs because our local payment gateway provider is not supported. After the payment is completed the API registers the payment in WA towards the specified invoices.

We were surprised that the member does not get a receipt email and that it has to be manually done which partly defeats the purpose of having automation if the admin needs to go in an click "send receipt email" for every payment made that day.

At the very least an option should be available in the payment creation api on whether to trigger this email or not.

Best Regards
