Gift Card Limits

(1/3) > >>

JohnS:
Emre,

I have setup a loyalty bonus for customer accounts (% credit based on spend), but how can we stop an account going into debit? We need a way to deactivate the Customer Accounts payment button if Payment Amount is higher than Customer Balance.

As with all Gift Cards, they cannot spend more than whats on the card, so how can this be enforced. Keeping in mind that we would run both credit only accounts (Gift Cards), and debit accounts for business customers who would pay monthly.

emre:
There is a setting on Account Types called "Rules". Setting it as Credit or Debit for the related account should do it. There is a naming issue there so I can't remember which one should be selected. As you test them I can fix these issues.

Also it is possible to create specific credit limits for customer cards. To make it work.
1. Change customer account type rule to Credit.
2. Create a custom field for Customer Entity type and name it as "Credit Limit"
3. Enter the limit amount to Customer Card.

Unfortunately these features are not properly tested yet. I hope it works as expected :)

JohnS:
Tried every variant and still not working.

emre:
Hmm. I've tested it again and it seems working fine to me. Or at least it does what I expected. We assume that gift card account connected to a payment method. Set gift card account type rule as "Credit" and you won't be able to use it as a payment type if it gets credited as a result.

JohnS:
I'm using the default customer accounts.
Set to Credit with a (10.00) balance
Make a 12.00 sale and the account shows 2.00
