This is useful when you do not wish to allow your Customers and Sub-Resellers to transact small amounts by online methods.

    • Turn on the generation of Risk Assessment Reports: By default this feature is turned on, as a measure to mitigate fraud when receiving funds from your Sub-Resellers and Customers via any of the following Payment Gateways:

      • Authorize.Net Credit Card Gateway

      • VeriSign Payflow Pro Credit Card Gateway

      • PayPal Direct Payment API Gateway

    • Payment Page Information: Apart from various online payment gateways that you can setup to receive payment/funds, you may also choose to receive payment/funds via offline methods. Should you choose to do so, you would need to display various methods by which your Customers and Sub-resellers can make offline payments, such as your Postal Address, instructions for mailing a Cheque or Wire Transfer information. All such information can be submitted here.

      Here, you would find 2 text-boxes in which you can submit the Payment Page content (in HTML). You may submit separate instructions for your Customers and Sub-Resellers, which would be presented to them on the payment page, before settling Invoices or adding Funds from their respective Control Panels.

      Note

      The Invoice Payment Page displayed to your Customers will have the Payment Page content provided above, only when they try to settle pending Invoices from within their Customer Control Panel. If you are using the SuperSite, the Invoice Payment Page content displayed to your Customers during the purchase flow needs to be customized separately.
