A threshold amount is the maximum dollar amount allowed per transaction for a merchant. If a transaction exceeds your defined limit, the transaction is declined. Threshold Amounts don’t increase your existing card limits.

Some questions on the merchant boarding application ask for information about your average monthly volumes and ticket amounts. Payabli uses these values to set parameters for your typical transactions, and work to mitigate risk on your behalf.

It’s helpful for you to know your thresholds in the instance you receive a transaction that exceeds your daily volume or single ticket amount. If you expect a transaction that exceeds your single ticket amount, or a higher than normal volume, reach out to Payabli Support ahead of time. The Support team can work to get the transaction or volume increase pre-approved.

You can also reach out to Payabli support to request a threshold increase.
