The Payment service section contains the following settings, some of which you can edit:
Capture Delay (days) - here you can enter the number of days (from 0 up to 14) our system waits before automatically capturing credit card payments, and certain ELV payments (this feature depends on the ELV acquirer, and has to be activated for you by Corporate Gateway). You can also set the capture delay to 'Off' (see Note below). Setting a capture delay of 0 means that a payment is captured immediately. The maximum capture delay for Corporate Gateway-owned accounts is 8 days. PayPal also supports delayed capture, although Worldpay capture a PayPal payment automatically after two days, regardless of the capture delay setting (unless we have de-activated this).
A capture delay can be helpful when determining whether an order can be delivered since it allows you some time to check and/or cancel the order.

If automatic capture is switched off (that is, Capture delay (days) set to 'Off'), you have to capture each payment manually, either through the Merchant Interface or by sending an XML order modification message per order. Also, you run the risk of authorisations expiring. Once an authorisation has expired (typically within 5 days) capture is no longer possible and the order has to be re-authorised - that is, resubmitted to our payment service and authorised by the financial institutions. |
Maximum Transaction Amount - this is the maximum monetary amount allowed per order. Orders with an amount exceeding this maximum can only be processed using nonreversible payment methods, for example, regular bank transfers. In the Hosted Call Centre, the Select Payment Method screen only shows the allowed payment methods for such transactions. If you have specifically switched off these payment methods, no payment method will be shown to the shopper in this scenario. In the Direct integration model an error will be returned.
The maximum transaction amount is displayed in one currency, usually the settlement currency of the merchant code. If other currencies are accepted on the account, the amount is converted to this currency and then checked. This means that if the amount is set to EUR 500 and GBP is requested in the order, the system converts the 500 EUR to GBP, and uses that as the maximum.
Contract Start Date (YYYY-MM, inclusive) - the date your contract (and billing) was set up with Worldpay. 2014-MAY indicates that the contract started on the 1st of May 2014.
Contract End Date (YYYY-MM, inclusive) - the date your contract with Worldpay is set to expire. This is usually left blank and will only show a date when the contract has been terminated by you or Worldpay.
Please note that the contract dates as specified in your signed contract are leading.
Changes you make in the Profile page will take effect when you select the Save Profile button near the bottom of the page.
