Payment method amount rules

This screen lets you limit when a payment method is offered to online customers, based on the transaction amount. For example, you might only offer a particular method above a minimum value, or hide it in a given currency.

Payment method amount rules

Where to find it

Open the rules (cog) icon next to a payment method while customising your checkout on the integrations list.

What you see

  • The payment method this rule applies to (for example Cards or ACH).
  • A short explanation of what the rule does.

Things to note

  • Some methods are tied to a single currency — ACH applies to USD, SEPA to EUR, and BACS to GBP. Other methods use the currencies your provider supports.
  • The amounts accept your local number format (the decimal separator follows your language setting).
  • Validation rules: a maximum must be greater than the minimum; a maximum of zero is only allowed when you're disallowing the method in that currency; and the maximum must be a valid number.
  • If you don't have permission to make changes, the screen is read-only and can't be saved.
