# 🔎 How to Retrieve a Multi Card Payment Session [#-how-to-retrieve-a-multi-card-payment-session]

After creating a multi card session, you can retrieve information about that session by sending a `GET` request to `https://api.sandbox.handsin.com/v1/multi-card-payments/:multiCardId`

You will need the `id` of the multi card session you want to retrieve.
