Payout control service
The payout control service allows the payment service provider to monitor and limit the amounts of payouts which merchants initiate in favor of their customers. It provides the following features:
-
payout channel setup to manage amounts of payout transactions processed by an acquiring bank in a specified currency;
-
control over the merchant’s payout balance which is the amount of funds available to the merchant for payouts to customers;
-
manual balance adjustments, for example, in case of an account deposit or transfer;
-
setup of daily, weekly, and monthly limits on payouts which are processed through one payout channel in one currency.
The service management is available to users with the Account Manager and Accountant roles. However, each of the roles has access to different functions of the payout control service, as shown in the table below.
