Maximum and minimum transaction limits

The Worldpay transaction limits determine the maximum and minimum amount that a shopper can pay in a single transaction. The Worldpay transaction limit is always imposed in a single currency, which is also known as the limit currency. During authorisation, Worldpay converts the payment amount to the limit currency and then checks if the amount is over the limit.

Additionally, the Payment Service Provider (PSP) may impose its own maximum and minimum transaction limits. These limits may periodically differ from the transaction limits imposed by Worldpay.

If the amount is higher than the maximum transaction limit or lower than the minimum transaction limit:

For payments made in the direct model, the Worldpay Payment service returns an error

For payments made in the redirect model, the payment method is not displayed on the Worldpay payment pages

We recommend that you validate your orders to ensure that you do not request authorisation of payments for amounts higher than the maximum transaction limit or lower than the minimum transaction limit.

Note: The maximum and minimum transaction limits are subject to change. We recommend that you periodically check the Worldpay transaction limits. Contact your Corporate Support Manager for more information.
