Terminal Limits

This feature allows to configure for a Merchant the use of specific rules to limit transactions.


As you can see in the previous image, the limits can be defined for two limit configurations:


The Terminal Level configuration for transaction limits allows more flexibility when defining those limits than the Merchant Level.


The Terminal Limits feature working in consonance with the same configuration, present at the Merchant Details section of the Merchant configuration.

The limits work the same way, for both terminal and card configurations, but a few elements need to be informed to register a limit, depending on the scope used.

The scope (DAILY, MONTHLY, SINGLE TRANSACTION) defines how the limit is going to be applied to the transactions, like:


LIMIT HIERARCHY APPLICATION

The limits have a particular hierarchy to be considered.

  • When Defining Volume (DAILY/ MONTHLY) Scope Limits : The Payment gateway always considers the thresholds of the volumes for the three possible elements, from the lower to the higher one in the hierarchy - CARD TYPE (if defined » TERMINAL (if defined) » MERCHANT (if defined). If any of them is reached, the constraint is applied.
  • When Defining Single (SINGLE TRANSACTION) Scope Limits : The Payment Gateway only considers the most specific threshold for the three possible elements, following the order - CARD TYPE » TERMINAL » MERCHANT.
