Card option missing on Netcash Pay Now? Check the R100 limit
Short answerA new Netcash Pay Now service has a default transaction limit of R100. When a payment is above the limit, the card option does not display at all. Test with amounts under R100, and ask your Netcash advisor to raise the limit before launch.
What it looks like
Small test payments work, and then the first real order, say R250, reaches Netcash's page with no way to pay by card. Nothing errors: the option is simply not there, which makes it look like a broken integration.
What to do
Ask your Netcash payments advisor to raise the Pay Now transaction limit to cover your largest expected order. Until then, keep test amounts below R100.
Netcash's documentation describes the card option disappearing above the limit. Offer instant EFT or cash at a shop beside card, so a customer always has a way to pay, and confirm with your advisor which limits apply to those methods on your account.
