Configuring accounts

There are four choices that you can apply to each account to determine the type of online payment that may be made by a customer. These settings can be made on account pages.

•	Do not accept payments - your customer will not have the option of making online PayPal payments. If they attempt to make a payment, they will see an error page on the CDR Control Panel requesting that they contact you to enable online payments.

•	Immediate credit - your customer will be allowed to make online payments. If their payment is authorised by PayPal, it will be added to their account as calling credit immediately.

•

Always defer - your customer will be allowed to make online payments. When their payment is authorised by PayPal, you will receive an email requesting that you manually process the payment. You may either accept or decline the payment (see below). If you accept the payment, the funds will be added to their account as calling credit.

•

Defer unverified - your customer will be allowed to make online payments. If their PayPal account has Verified status, then their payment will be added to their account as calling credit immediately following an authorisation from PayPal. If their PayPal account is unverified, the payment will be deferred for your manual approval.

The default setting for new accounts that you create are specified on the PayPal settings page.

Further settings can be made on the account editing page that limit the size of payments that may be made and, optionally, apply a transaction charge for online payments.
