# Cancel card

> Cancel a card permanently



## OpenAPI

````yaml /partner-openapi.json post /partner/cards/{id}/cancel
openapi: 3.1.0
info:
  title: Contro Partner API
  version: 1.0.0
  license:
    name: Proprietary
    url: https://contro.me/terms
  description: >-
    The Contro Partner API enables Card-as-a-Service (CaaS) partners to
    programmatically issue cards, manage cardholders, and monitor transactions.


    ## Authentication


    All requests require your partner API key in the `x-contro-api-key` header:


    ```

    x-contro-api-key: sk_live_...

    ```


    Use `sk_test_*` keys for sandbox and `sk_live_*` keys for production.


    ## Rate Limits


    The API allows 1,000 requests per minute per API key. When exceeded,
    responses return HTTP 429 with a `Retry-After` header.


    ## Pagination


    List endpoints use page-based pagination:


    ```json

    {
      "data": [...],
      "page": 1,
      "limit": 20,
      "total": 137
    }

    ```


    Pass `?page=2&limit=20` to paginate. `limit` accepts 1–100 (default 20);
    `page` defaults to 1.


    ## Errors


    All errors return:


    ```json

    {
      "success": false,
      "error": "Human-readable message"
    }

    ```
