Each Payments account starts with a default payments limit of $7000 in card processing transactions a month and a $2000 limit per transaction.
Exceeding these limits can result in a soft hold being placed on your processing fund. This means you customers will be able to pay their invoices with a card, but those funds may be held to prevent fraud.
Requesting a Limit Increase is done in two steps. First, you need to upload supporting documentation. The second step is to request the actual increase.
Uploading Supporting Documents
When requesting a limit increase over $7000 per month or $2000 per transaction, the following documents are typically required.
-
Last three months of processing statements (we have these on your Payments page)
-
Last three months of bank statements
-
A copy of a business license
To upload support documentation, follow these steps.
- Collect the last three months of bank statements for your company.
- Go to your Payments settings page.
- Tap Statements at the top of the screen.
- Tap on to open and then Download each of the last three Statements
- Tap Transactions to return to the Payments screen.
- Tap the Action [ ... ] button.
- Tap Upload Documentation to ProPay.
- Select Limit Increase as the document type.
- Select the last three (3) months of Payments statements and three (3) months of bank statements.
- Tap Upload.
Once the upload of documents is complete, you can request a limit increase.
Requesting a Limit Increase
Before requesting a limit increase, you need to know the following.
- The average amount of card transactions you do in a month from your statements
- The largest typical transaction you tend to do
- Your ProPay account number from your Payments page.
NOTE: Requesting more than a $50,000 per month limit will require more financial documentation of the business and the business owners.
