A transfer records that a payable WAS PAID — the annotation a human writes after paying out of band. Commerce executes no payout: creating one moves no money, and it marks the referenced payable settled. It carries the payable and payee ids, the amount it settles and the amount actually sent (which may be a different asset), a type of eth, wire or other, the transaction hash or wire reference, when it was paid and who recorded it; amounts are exact decimal strings with an asset, not cents. It is admin-gated because writing one settles money we owe, and nothing enforces uniqueness on the reference — so posting the same transfer twice settles the payable twice. Removes the addressed row and answers 204 with no body. Before the live row goes it is written once more under a deleted tombstone kind, so a deletion leaves a recoverable copy rather than destroying the record outright — and a tombstone that cannot be written fails the call with 500 before anything is removed. The id is resolved inside the caller org's own namespace, so an absent or foreign id is 404. The token must carry the ADMIN permission; an ordinary access token is refused. The per-kind permission table has no entry for transfer, so the scaffold skips that second check with a warning and the gate above is the whole authorization story.

## Request

1 field.

| Field        | In   | Type   | Required | Description |
| ------------ | ---- | ------ | -------- | ----------- |
| `transferid` | path | string | yes      |             |

## Response

The document declares no response body for this operation. It answers `200` on success and the platform error shape on failure — see [Errors](https://docs.hanzo.ai/docs/errors).

## Examples

**CLI**

```bash
hanzo commerce transfer rm <transferid>
```

**SDK**

**.ts**

```ts
import { Configuration, CommerceApi } from 'hanzoai';

const api = new CommerceApi(new Configuration({ accessToken: process.env.HANZO_API_KEY }));
const { data } = await api.deleteCommerceTransferByTransferid({ transferid: 'transferid' });
```

**.py**

```python
from hanzoai.cloud import ApiClient, Configuration
from hanzoai.cloud.api import CommerceApi

client = ApiClient(Configuration(access_token=os.environ["HANZO_API_KEY"]))
result = CommerceApi(client).delete_commerce_transfer_by_transferid(transferid='transferid')
```

**.go**

```go
cfg := hanzoai.NewConfiguration()
cfg.AddDefaultHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+os.Getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"))
client := hanzoai.NewAPIClient(cfg)

resp, _, err := client.CommerceAPI.DeleteCommerceTransferByTransferid(context.Background()).Execute()
if err != nil {
	return err
}
```

**.rs**

```rust
use hanzo_client::apis::{configuration::Configuration, commerce_api};

let mut cfg = Configuration::new();
cfg.bearer_access_token = std::env::var("HANZO_API_KEY").ok();

let result = commerce_api::delete_commerce_transfer_by_transferid(&cfg, Default::default()).await?;
```

**.java**

```java
import ai.hanzo.cloud.ApiClient;
import ai.hanzo.cloud.api.CommerceApi;

ApiClient client = new ApiClient();
client.setBearerToken(System.getenv("HANZO_API_KEY"));

var result = new CommerceApi(client).deleteCommerceTransferByTransferid();
```

**HTTP**

```bash
curl -X DELETE https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/commerce/transfer/<transferid> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $HANZO_API_KEY"
```

**MCP**

MCP reaches **commerce** through the `commerce` tool, which names its 5 operations with its own verbs — this one among them, under a name only MCP declares. `describe` explains any of them:

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.hanzo.ai/v1/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
       "jsonrpc": "2.0",
       "id": 1,
       "method": "tools/call",
       "params": {
         "name": "describe",
         "arguments": {
           "op": "get_commerce_health"
         }
       }
     }'
```
